pillars


Something new.


Thank goodness for a stash of stitch dictionaries! 


 'Opposites Attract' yarn in 'heaven and earth' from Barking Dog Yarns.


I'm knitting two at a time on separate sets of needles...so far so good.

What are your favorite "opposites" that "attract"?
Me? 
Peanut butter and chocolate, William Powell and Myrna Loy...just to name a couple (LOL)!!


Friends in your life are like pillars on your porch. 
Sometimes they hold you up and sometimes they lean on you. 
Sometimes it's just enough to know they're standing by.

Whoo Hoo!!! Just lovely combinations!!! A look and feel of royalty and fun!!! Not a bit poopy, except for the 'stitch dictionary' comment! Yea - I priced that the last time you dangled that little alleged explanation before our eyes.(First get mortgage loan, then figure out how to read charts! Bleck!!) More fun to whine til you publish it??!!
Love, your Royal PITA - :^)

You always manage to come up with the perfect quote! Love it. I'm not a huge fan of opposite socks, but those are lovely - and honestly - I love my stitch dictionaries! Tell Annon above to buy them from Knit Picks on sale. She'll get plenty of options! g

So unusual! I like them. Will you wear these on Dr Suess day? :0)

My favourite opposites are babies and seniors because, when they interact, we see how much we all have in common.
Plus knitting at the tire shop!
