My computer has been resolutely refusing to upload photos from my camera today. What in the world shall I do for visual accompaniment?
Come on — Laurie and I can’t be the only ones watching golf this weekend. . .
And it struck me earlier that this year’s Knitters’ Hunk contest will be coming up at the end of August. Hard to believe another year has passed. Ready your nominees. And your hormones.
In Nashville, I bought some of that fancy self-frilling yarn (in that very color, as a matter of fact), and have made a little scarflet/neck warmer out of it. It’s very interesting to work with, and does, indeed, ruffle. However, the fabric produced with the recommended needle size is extremely dense. If I ever buy more, I’ll use much, much larger needles to show the ruffles off better.
While watching golf today, I made a scarf out of some random eyelash yarn paired up with some random ribbon tape. I find I enjoy working with a couple of strands of very different fibers. Which helps get rid of lots of those odd skeins.
Lots of you probably know about this . People are taking it really hard. There’s a concert tonight to benefit employees. All in all, it’s been a bad year for Athens.

That picture might bring a few more “fans”. If only we could have seen him rain soaked.
HEAD SHAKE. Ok. I’m better now.
Poor Athens. There simply cannot be anything more. It just isn’t right.

Wow that is so sad, I hope the concert raises a lot of money. Great timing.

You know, I’ve never watched golf on TV. Of course I’ve never golfed either. That self-frilling yarn looks like lots of fun!

I love Phil Mickelson with all my black little heart.
