well it is officially the first of august, and i am swatching...and i think my worsted is more of a light worsted and i'm gonna have to either get a different yarn, or double up to get gauge for rogue. blah! i may be ordering more. but what the heck is this color??? its either lichen, prarie sage or colorado range! i got it from the bargain bins at brown sheep in nebraska at the beginning of the summer, and ta da! no labels. no telling what color it is. but its pretty and i like it! see my stash at the bottom of the page. time to make a trip to lys to compare with color cards...wish me luck. oh, i guess had better wait un morning. they might not appreciate a midnight visit! wait, nevermind. i think i can make it work...i'll have to knit on 7's which i don't want to do, but maybe it will be ok. get me used to knitting more open fabrics. see i hate knitting loosey goosey stuff. i'm not a tight knitter. i just don'tlike the way loose knit looks. might have to get someone to hold my hand!!! see i usually knit worsted weight on 6's or 5's, so this will be tough. but maybe i can do it. cross my fingers. hell cross your fingers too, i'll need all the help i can get.
so i was reading some online news and look what i found! you've got to read this its about pluto . so my question is. what happens to the rhyme that kids use to memorize the order? i mean hello! My Very Ecellent Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas... just doesn't have the same ring without the pizzas does it? oh well. so i have a proposition . no no silly no tthat kind of proposition. dave would get mad! or at least i hope he would... anyhoo. come up with your own rhyme to help kids memorize the order. the sillier the better, and the winner will get something fabulous from my stash. wow. i've never had a contest before this is kinda fun! i guess i have to figure out a way to pick the winner. hmm. ok all entries that include the beginning letter of all the currently accepted planets and usues them in order will go into a hat. not the actual people who enter. thats a big hat. but all their entries :) and a random draw shall decide ok? enter as many times as you like. and have
