We had a great time tonight. Almost everyone was there.  I got to share my new books with the team and felt even better about them after my peeps read through them and found even more to ohh and ahhh over! Â
I am stuck on Eris [sleeve] Island because I have not had time to knit of late. Last night was spent with friends I have had for over thirty years. We would get together regularly, but found that the time in between was getting to be 1-2 years (!). TOO long! So now we are making an effort to get together every 1-2 months.  It has really worked and is wonderful. These are people who knew me when: before menopause and chicken necks, before marriage and kids, before we knew what our futures would hold.Â
Now I must knit and go watch a rerun of Grey’s — though I hear it is a good one (per Kim!). 
Wanted to let you know that the yarn came today. It was a super dreary day and the yarn was a great pick-up! I am waiting on the book and praying for my # 7 needle to turn up (or be turned in!).
I am so excited about checking out the pattern and knitting up a swatch. The color is fantastic and the yarn is SOOOOO soft and comfy.
Thanks again for your generosity.

From Susan To Lisa — so glad the yarn arrived! The Berry Cluster Pullover is a fun and fairly fast knit. But beware: the Jolie does not play well with others — for sure don’t knit it while wearing black!!
