I think my paws are well enough that I can sew again. There is still some significant inflammation in the bottom joint and the ball of my right thumb, so I still have to go easy.
Going easy will not be difficult at the moment because we are still in the midst of moving DD3 upstairs one floor and me down 2. I think she must have a closet of holding in her room because it's just a constant stream of stuff coming out of there. I am eager to find this closet because heaven knows I sure can use such a thing!
A few months back DD and kiri stopped into a thrift shop on the weekly kitty litter run, and found a wool sweater. Normally they bring such goodies home for me to unravel and make into something. This particular sweater fit DD though, so I told her to keep it without even looking very hard at it. She wanted it because it "feels nummy". Well she has never worn the thing, so when it surfaced as she was sorting out her room she brought it to me to wash. I plucked off the fifty cent price tag and looked for a tag with washing instructions or fiber content. I found one. 100% cashmere, made in Italy. I will not steal my daughters "nummy" sweater. I will not steal my daughters "nummy" sweater. I will not steal my daughters "nummy" sweater.
