What I Looked At Today….

ByCarolynMB August 20, 2009

One of the first things I do each morning is look at my Yarn Harlot ‘page a day’ calendar which I got indirectly from Stephanie via her Mum and my neighbour (bless them all). Today she talked about knitters watching fewer foreign films because of the subtitles and how knitters prefer dramas, more listening and less looking. YES!!!

For years I’ve been so disappointed when my husband suggests watching a marvelous foreign film as I have to put down my knitting and read the screen!!!!!

Found this link on my local Wool Tyme newsletter for August: Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Knitter’, I love the sketches and the sentiments.

B’deer, b’deer, b’deer… that’s all folks.
