omlyI just had the most surreal knitting expereince. Ready?
So I was sitting on the 80, waiting for it to get going when this woman in fabulous orange shoes gets on the bus. I am knitting this skirt I am making for Tab from stash acrylic (shh don't tell her it is a gift). The woman sits down across from me and pulls out a sock. What a second; I know that yarn!![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-syndicated.gif)
grumperina was just talking about this yarn. It is a cotton/lycra blend sock weight yarn that she got it from Greenwood Fiberworks. In fact I believe she first talked about it here.
So I asked about the yarn, and the woman asks me if I have ever heard of etsy, etc etc. It is the same yarn! That I read about on a blog... and then recognized immediately in real life. Out of my mouth come the words "do you have a blog?" It turns out that this woman is bestitched (sadly there seems to be no rss feed) whom I was able to find throughgrumperina's read-blog list. Bestitched encouraged me to stop by True Grounds and knit.
I am still on a knitting blog meets real-life high. I am incredibly amused and grinning. Sorry just had to share. Off to your regularly scheduled day. (PS If you want to see the yarn/sock it can be seen here.
