Well it ended up not being a lazy day. I had the brilliant idea to try and clear out all the brush I already got rid of earlier in the year that has since grown back. Worst.Idea.Ever. I cleared about half the stuff, around 8 feet. I thought I was going to die. Filled up the whole big green trash can. I was just covered in filth when I came inside. We're watching The Thin Man right now. Its v funny. And a bit risque for 1934. I finished all my laundry for the second time in a row instead of leaving one load in the dryer like usual.

I was supposed to bring a friend of my sister to Sophie's today. But she had to stay home to wait for her landlord to call about her broken AC. She just knows how to K and P and is v excited about learning to make shapes that aren't scarves. She is coming on vacation with us and asked Lori if maybe we could knit on vacation. Hee, like you have to ask? She also was blown away that I actually go to an SnB. "She has a group? Of knitters!?"

I'm very excited about making the Natalie Coat from Big Girl Knits. The yarn it calls for is $10 a ball and I need 10 balls. The yarn is just 100% wool. I can get some from Knitpicks for $2 a ball. $100 sweater vs. $20 sweater. I can't even buy a sweater coat from Lane Bryant for that. Something like that would probably cost upwards of $60.
