Racing Lace
Shocking news from the Chappysmom camp this morning, when the Peacock Stole expressed her intention of packing up her extra skeins of yarn and moving out, thereby quitting the Amazing Lace team.
She stated her reasons as “Neglect, pure and simple. I’ve been in that knitting bag longer than anybody, and when is the last time she picked me up? Weeks! It’s been weeks. She just keeps harping on that stupid cabled sweater, acting like I’m not even there!”
This just in!
An update on the situation.
The two have reconciled. Chappysmom apparently apologized for being so cable-centric of late, citing pressures of upcoming warm weather and wanting to get the heavy yarn out of the knitting bag so that Peacock could breathe. She promised to do better, for the good of the team, and for heaven’s sake, to stop being so sensitive!
So, the team stands as it was originally.
Knitter: Deb, Chappy’s Mom
Project: Peacock Feathers Stole, who apparently has an inferiority complex as a rectangular version of the famous, triangular shawl created by Fiddlesticks Knitting.
Yarn: Royal Blue Jaggerspun Zephyr
Needles: Inox Gray in U.S. size 4 (3.5 mm)

Tannenbaum.

What a diva!
Glad to hear you two made up ;o)
Hey there…Sorry for the lack of comments, but I was visiting…just too nutty at work to leave any. You guys look like you had a great vacay. Thanks for the postcard!!!! I’ll have to make it up to MV sometime in my life!
Give Chappy big kisses for us…the puppy is coming soon…I can’t wait to share pictures!
Well, I am certainly glad my abandoned socks don’t behave that way. They just wait patiently, while I start one shrug and almost finish another one.
If she acts up again give her a time out with the stash. That might help cool her off.
Go, Team! Glad a crisis was averted.
Hah! My FLAK cardi is starting to give off the same rumblings, but I’m not picking up that all that heavy wool again until the fall. Lace it is (and socks, of course) for the next several months.
