Not a yarn order
Howdy.
You'll be glad to know that somehow, despite my yarn fast, and determined reassurance that I have Not Purchased any yarn, something came today.
I don't know how these will appear on your screen, but none of them are quite right on mine.
Regardless, son #3 says it's the most beautiful yarn in the house, and when are you going to start it, Mommy?
I feel like a criminal when I look at the stack of costume sewing I have remaining but, humorously, (he well knows me) he pointed out that there are lots of places we go that the sewing machine can't go, so I can bring his sweater and work on it then... What a cutie.
The other funny thing about this yarn is that, to me, it's Ordered Clothing, not really Yarn-- perhaps as a knitter you understand. So when my DH told me "here's the receipt for your yarn order, sweetie," I gacked. "Yarn order? What yarn order? I haven't bought any yarn!"
He just looked at me, a bit astonished, and handed me a printout of my Malabrigo order. Eyebrows up, skeptical, the whole works.
I still maintain my position, I haven't bought any yarn-- but the funniest part to me, is that I truly had forgotten the Malabrigo, and even when reminded of it persist in claiming I had not bought any yarn. Funny.
By the way, for Terry-- send me an address, and I'll mail you the last of one of my green skeins of Malabrigo. You have to feel it to believe it. I have no idea how to mail something to a boat on the Pacific or wherever you guys are! mrsrhb3 At yahoo dot com.
