I certainly wish I was taught to knit when I was younger - I would have learned patience a lot earlier in life, when I really needed it, as well as perseverance and attention to detail. All good things. I have to agree with you about Franklin at the Panopticon... he is great, isn't he?!Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03769340725015584577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12868617.post-1139356045573052792006-02-07T16:47:00.000-07:002006-02-07T16:47:00.000-07:00Oh, Hornblower!

Alas I had to be at dh's corporate summer picnic event....I'm still bummed that I couldn't clone myself.<BR/>And I read the Panopticon too & love, love, love his cartoons and his knitting & just everything. <BR/>But my current favourite is Yarnstorm <BR/>http://yarnstorm.blogs.com/knitblog/<BR/>She knits, she sews, she cooks & she takes gorgeous photos. She's in England so that would add an a plane trip to your road trip but oh, it would be SO worth it....hornblowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11428146299208610591noreply@blogger.com
