"The web of our life is of a mingled yarn...." ~ Shakespeare

I am not a knitter. A new yarn shop recently opened in town, though, and Laura (who is a knitter) wanted to check it out. There's an entire community of knitters in this area, apparently, and they're all overjoyed at the addition of this shop. They get together weekly to knit and drop phrases like "yarn over" and "bind off" and generally enable each other in this obsession. I can't say that I understand the fascination, but the yarn sure is pretty.
