You need 4 mini skeins of fingering weight yarn. Emma has kits and we are working on getting them in time for the cast on. I’ll have more details later this week.

You can also pick your own colours as well. We have lots of mini skeins from Emma’s. I need to go through them this week because I think we have more in stock than the website shows.

I needed to wind the last two skeins for Jaunty. They were sitting on the coffee table and I went to do something else. When I came back to grab them there was only one on the table. Someone picked up the other one and got into my chair with it. He didn’t hurt the skein. It wasn’t wet or tangled. He just picked it up and carried it with him. Boscoe loves Spincycle.

Tonight’s movie is Stand By Me. I don’t think I’ve watched it since I saw it in the theatre.
