A letter to Laura Aylor

Dear Laura Aylor,

Ok.  You can stop now.  Because really, I have only one lifetime to live and there are only so many knitting hours.

You became famous in my world with Lizard Ridge.  I never noticed it but back when I was working at the yarn store, everybody and their sisters cousin would come in and say, 'well, I can always used it for that Lizard Ridge Blanket' and walk out with single balls of Noro.

And then on my own, I came across this.  All the Shades of Truth. Oh my.  Breathtaking simplicity and utterly stunning. Tove worthy for those who us who have a treasured stash of Tove.

That's when I really started watching you.

Ok.  That sounds just a bit creepy.  I mean on Ravelry.

And then there is Faberge  and Sunstruck and Shalimar and Tuck and Dunbar  and...and...and

I could go on.  And on. 

And then today I saw Rorqual.  

Honestly, If you don't stop...don't ever stop, I am going to be a pretty darn happy knitter.  I couldn't ask for more than that.

Signed

Me

PS, computer monitor repaired, audio visual components all set up all thanks to Son2.  Action shots:

Instead of a pile of components and a strangle of cables and cords, I have order and gosh darn it all, it works.

I need to knit for him more often.
