A blog about my life, knitting, and other stuff.

Knitters Are Still Nice

I got another lovely package today from a fellow knitter. Mariko of Super Eggplant sent me this.



I saw on her blog that she was reading The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri. I read Interpreter of Maladies last year and was absolutely enthralled with Lahiri's writing. Mariko remembered that I wanted to read it and sent it to me. I am so touched by this gift.

Here's a progress picture of my felted tote, as promised.



And a picture of my packing progress.



I'll take photos of the house tomorrow night once the workmen are out of there. It will probably be the last time the house is really truly clean.

I finally ripped out the brim of my BOC. I had to make three trips to the other house before I remembered to get my needles for the project out of the attic. Then I got the wrong ones. Then I started knitting the brim inside out! Oy vey. I will wait another day on that one.
