Now that you mention it ...
I Hate Toast, please! Let's say peas and carrots - I'm trying to reduce.
Dorothy, you said it, girl!
Omly, well there's an easy post to write! Coming soon.
Rebecca, really, I couldn't believe my luck about the Sheep 3. It would be my pleasure to pass tasty chunks of Sea Colors to you. Perhaps I should wrap up the Zilborgian sweater soon.
i get the feeling that you and a spreadsheet are like peanut butter and jam.

Excellent night! New yarn, still less in the stash. It doesn't get much better than that.

I admit to being mildly curious about the fuzzy parrot yarn.

You did well! Nice score on the Sheep 3, too. And in interest of assisting you, is the offer for your seacolors leftovers (once there are leftovers, of course) still open?
