I wanna coooooommme. If I leave work at 7AM, which is, like, 30 minutes before I get there, I could be at your house by 7PM...

I felt the need to check and make sure you're nowhere near me. And lo and behold, you're 3000 or so miles away . . . I mean, you'd think I'd know that I don't follow any New Orleans knitting blogs. But the word "local" all by itself, it's always so tempting . . .

How about just postponing this until March - I'll be in the Bay Area then for a visit. Or - plan another knit in for spring?

I can't come, but I'll tell a knitting story because I wish I could!
I am alive because of knitting. Let me 'splain. My Granny (named Pat) went to boarding school, and one of her best friends there was a brassy, awesome girl named Iris. Iris came back from a school break wearing a pretty sweater. "Where'd you get that?" Pat asked.
"I knitted it. My aunt Isabelle taught me."
"Oh, I wish I could do that."
"Well, next weekend, come with me to Aunt Isabelle's and she can teach you! She's very sweet, she wouldn't mind."
So soon after they made the trip to the north side of Chicago to visit with aunt Isabelle for Iris's next knitting lesson. Pat was surprised to see a rather rakish teenager sitting on the living room couch reading a magazine. "Oh, don't pay attention to him," Iris said, "that's just my cousin George."
Little did Pat know she was looking at her future husband, who would have to convince her--twice--to marry him. They were married for more than 50 years.
