I’m feeling flushed

Nope. Wait a minute. That’s the toilet. heh.  Sophomoric humor.  It may not make me laugh, but it does make me smile.
So, the lace knitting is on hold.  PurplePi is back in the fold because Margene lent me a 60″ cable needle to complete Ms. Pi.   Yes, she is that kind of wonderful. [...]
