Ams_wedding_greg_024_2Meet Amalie, my niece, and her new husband, Luke. You know what, Luke? You’ve married a pretty sensible woman. I know because she planned a knitting project just for the honeymoon. You might think it strange, but taking along your knitting assures that flights will be on time and you won’t be stuck in traffic jams. I know this is true because any time I leave my knitting at home I’m always delayed in one way or another.

Finally back in Vancouver. It was a great trip including stops at three yarn shops and a trip to an angora goat farm. I practiced great restraint by buying only two skeins of yarn, one being a gift for my knitting SIL – the mother of the sensible bride.

More later, just wanted to post a quick update.

    What a lovely couple! And you’re so right about the delays when you don’t have your knitting with you. I almost never get to knit due to traffic jams. If the knitting’s there – no traffic. If I forget it – guaranteed traffic jam.

    I miss you already. I’ve got a foot of Feather and Fan, and I love it. Point me to your mistaken rib and I’ll start on my goat.

    I, too, have found that there is less waiting time when I take my knitting with me.
