Oh my HECK!!! You're a hoot. (And, yikes - the colors on that elephant shawl are eerily similar to what you're doing yours in....) And, I agree....definitely an Eduardo..... A lifeline in knitting??? Hmmm....you're making this sound like an interesting craft. I like the idea very much for some reason. Stay cool my friend - we're warming up here too - today was supposed to be around 88 and the same tomorrow - but, there's a breeze, and the humidity doesn't seem too bad at this point. Can't be too bad - the Snow Dog is laying outside in the sun.....Smiles & Hugs ~ RobinTheCrankyCrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16314851714923955216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4736705671514488281.post-86986256134482594082012-06-27T16:41:46.463-04:002012-06-27T16:41:46.463-04:00I think that you will have attitude when you where...I think that you will have attitude when you where your shawl - love the elephant pic, though, too.<br /><br />So glad that you like the threads,<br /><br />hugs, kayeKaisievichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12466159839339896483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4736705671514488281.post-74361806083290068332012-06-27T14:27:36.388-04:002012-06-27T14:27:36.388-04:00ROTFLOL at the elephant!!
