An Ode to La Gran
Also, you'll be glad to hear that once I finish this little La Gran retrospective, I can get back to discussing my current knitting as I am almost finished with the Super Secret Project although I did have the joy of frogging part of it this weekend when I discovered an error on the scale of NASA's infamous meters/inches boo boo. (The difference is I never claimed to be a math genius, I think you have to be a math genius to even take out the trash at NASA.) Anyway, I reknit the mistake and I'm on the home stretch so I can get back to knitting normal stuff. The other strange thing this weekend: a bird got his head stuck in the bird feeder on our back deck. The poor little thing stuck his head under the plexiglass side trying to get a piece of seed way in the back of the feeder and his head got stuck, so we sit down to lunch and I notice that there is a bird outside with his little butt in the air. I'm no professional bird person (I don't even know what they're called), but birds don't usually moon people like that. So, I noticed he was breathing and I couldn't see his head. I go outside and sure enough, his head is stuck. Luckily the birdfeeder was made so that I could pull out the plexiglass sides, so I just pulled that part out and the little guy flew off. Poor thing probably died of shock in the tree, either that or he has a really great story to tell at parties now. Caleb spent the rest of the day telling me I was a Special Super Hero. I don't know what the Special is referring to, maybe the fact that I can't fly and I walk into walls before I'm caffeinated, I don't know...

AARGH!!! I have run into anonymous on quite a few blogger blogs today! How annoying for you. I hate the spam.
Anyway-I have loved me some La Gran in my life. It is so warm and cozy and easy to knit. I might just bring some of mine back out. Did you know that they have some space dyed now? Bringing back the memories,that is for sure. I hope you still wear that sweater.
