And I didn’t even get to the best part!!!

Okay–so when Chicken was helping me open yarn packages in the car yesterday, she said, “Here’s a yarn magazine, mom–I’m putting it in your yarn bag, ‘Kay?”

“Okay,” I responded, trying not to crash the car and ogle what was coming out of the packages at the same time.

So I didn’t see it until today, when I was grading papers in MacDonalds, hoping for a break from the papers (which I made some serious inroads on, and I’m very proud of myself).

And I was thumbing through it, loving the fact that it was from a whole different place, I saw a pair socks that I really loved. And a quirky little article on ‘Casting off’ and guess what?

CERI DID THEM BOTH!!!! She wrote the pattern (and SERIOUSLY, darling, I was thinking “Ooooooohhhh, best thing in the book…” before I saw your name) AND she wrote the article, and I know this person–she sent me stuff, and I’m SOOOOOO tickled.

Best MacDonald’s visit EVER.
