My Ponchette will be done tomorrow. Once it is sewn and blocked I’ll post a completed photo. I think I will really like wearing it.
At lunch I sat outside and was knitting on the Ponchette. A fellow employee came over and asked about my knitting and said she loves to knit herself. We had a wonderful conversation about our shared love of knitting. She is quite avid about it and shares the ‘purpose vs process’ philosophy of knitting (i.e., she and I like to get things finished, not just get them started). She is Ethiopian and her name is Abebe (“flower”) — one of the two words I actually know in Ethiopian! The other I cannot spell — it means hello.Â
Knitting is the true international language!!
