In Memory of the most gentle, sweet soul I have ever known. Sweet Sadie Sunshine Roberson - December 26, 1996 - February 14, 2007 Knitting Wisdom and Other Drivel: Things To Do Today: 1. Get up. 2. Knit. 3. Go back to bed. You had me at YARN. *A NO SMOKING section in a restaurant is like a NO PEEING section in a swimming pool. *Knitting is very conducive to thought. It is nice to knit a while, put down the needles, write a while, then take up the sock again. ~Dorothy Day *Women like to sit down with trouble - as if it were knitting. ~Ellen Glasgow
*The only place where housework comes before needlework is in the dictionary. ~Mary Kurtz
*Knitting is a boon for those of us who are easily bored. I take my knitting everywhere to take the edge off of moments that would otherwise drive me stark raving mad. ~Stephanie Pearl-McPhee, At Knit's End: Meditations for Women Who Knit Too Much
*A #6 aluminum needle has been known to furnish an excellent emergency shearpin for an outboard motor. ~Elizabeth Zimmerman
*"Heirloom" is knitting code for "This pattern is so difficult that you would consider death a relief. ~Stephanie Pearl-McPhee, At Knit's End: Meditations for Women Who Knit Too Much
*“We might knit that knot with our tongues that we shall never undo with our teeth” *Diet, exersize, die anyway! *"Be right there, honey. I've got to finish this row! Wrap a towel around it to stop the bleeding!" *I just want what everyone wants. Money, cable television, & yarn! *"If you think you can, you can. If you think you can't, you're right!" - Mary Kay Ash *"You CAN have it all. Just not all at once." - Oprah *"That girl needs to take up knitting" -High School Musical 2 *Methinks it is a token of healthy and gentle characteristics, when women of high thoughts and accomplishments love to sew; especially as they are never more at home with their own hearts than while so occupied. ~Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Marble Faun, 1859
Favorite T-Shirts Seen Around Town: Somedays it just not worth chewing through the restraints. Mayhem, confusion, chaos. My work here is done. And, inspite of the look on my face, you're still talking. People say I'm ADHD, but they just don't understand. Oh, look! A chicken. National Sarcasm Society. (Like we need your support!) Bother! |
