Knitting by Judy @ 8:51 AM

What was it I said a couple of days ago about not getting distracted by bright, shiny objects?

I received a care package yesterday from Woodland Woolworks. It contained some needles that I wanted.

And somehow included in the box were 1350 yds of Skacel Merino Lace in a dark green and the pattern for the Pacific Northwest Shawl.

How do you think that happened?

Thought of the Minute
- The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error.
