It Was a Hairy Bear, It Was a Scary Bear

If you’re familiar with Laurie Perry, a.k.a. Crazy Aunt Purl, then you know that her new book was just released.
Laurie is a very funny young woman who is gifted at putting her humor into writing. I’ve enjoyed her blog for years. I’ve also gotten to know her a bit, and she is as enthusiastic and charming in real life as she comes across in her writing. At the time of publishing this post, this book is #1 in THREE Amazon categories: Divorce, Knitting, and Needlecrafts. I am so happy for her! |

Imagine my glee, when back in May, she asked me to write a pattern for this book!
Lookit! Here I am! Page 245! |

Here’s the photo of the shawl from the book.
It’s made using the same lace as the Renee Baby Blanket, all sexified into a shawl, with a drapey silky yarn. I’m excited for Laurie, I’m excited about the book, and I’m so happy that I could be a part of it. Next…! |

The latest on the Wedding Gift Sweater…the back is finished. I should be able to finish it well before October 6th.
Whew. It is a cropped sweater, after all. Next…! |

I have recently rediscovered my love for Schoolhouse Rock thanks to YouTube.
After all these years, I was shocked by how non-PC some of them are! Especially the ones that have to do with the American Revolution. King George III and Napoleon are totally dissed. Not to miss: Mother Necessity, and We Unpacked our Adjectives. Next…! |

Abe has the whole big chair to himself… |

‘Cuz there’s a Red Dog Nap Party on the sofa.
I’m not sure where I’m supposed to sit. Have a great weekend! |
