I thought my day was going to be a lazy Saturday. Started out going to a ladies' luncheon fundraiser for the local hospice and then thought I'd knit a few rows. My brother from MN showed up and we visited for a couple hours and then I got recruited to help the men move from field to field. They are a little freaked. Lotsa soybeans to combine and it's gonna rain for days and be cold. /sigh
You'll have to make the coaster smaller and use it when you drink from a demitasse cup! :D

I hate when that happens. Once I wrote to the yarn company complaining that their full-priced (not seconds) skein of yarn had four joins in it. They sent me two complimentary skeins and a note of apology. I wasn't asking for anything, just wanted to let them know that quality control was lacking. The worst is when there's a join in a color pattern yarn that ruins the pattern repeat (as in sock yarn). Hope today is going better. My son is getting married today! Happy Day!

Are you finding that knot-in-the-middle-of-a-skein thing is happening more often lately? I recently came across two within three feet of each other. (Much gnashing of teeth.)

Stupid yarn knot.
It was a good day until I discovered that last night's giant windstorm flattened all of my tomato plants. Not that you care about tomato plants.

Crab stitch is extra-crabby sometimes...
