It’s Furious Balancing

As I was walking to my usual Wednesday evening manicure appointment, a young woman passed me on the street and said, “I like your Noro Striped Scarf.”

I stopped and we had a quick chit-chat about how we love Noro Silk Garden and how addictive those Noro scarves are to make, and then she mentioned she worked at the LYS¹ and how they had just gotten in a new shipment of Silk Garden and how I wish she hadn’t had mentioned that since it’s payday tomorrow and how she understood that feeling since that’s where her own paycheck went and how she had enough yarn to last her a solid year of knitting but, hey, it was good insulation for the upcoming winter, right?²

You never know when you will run into another knitter.
