It’s a Purl, Man

I know that I don’t get out and do as much knitting and chatting as I would like. But I thought I knew what was going on with the local yarn stores. But then Franklin, in a post on Ravelry, opened up my eyes to a development that is now a year old.

Sean, my first interviewee for the show, is now the owner of Woolcott & Co.. That’s a pretty big thing, seeing as Woolcott is an institution in Harvard Square and all.

Congrats to Sean on this, now year old, achievement. I would have congratulated you in person when I saw you a month or so ago, but apparently I am out of touch. (don’t tell my listeners)

I wonder if he is going to add “a male knitter owned” business to his marketing material?

I also hope that, as the new owner, Sean will invite Franklin to come do a photo shoot at his store in the fall, perhaps around the Head of the Charles. We could start a knitting crew team and try to compete… wool floats.

You Are 40% Massachusetts

You could pass for being from Massachusetts - until you open your mouth and start pronouncing R’s.

How Massachusetts Are You?

Thanks to Lucy for turning me onto this silly test. I am so embarrassed now, I guess my roots are showing.

I guess I’ll go park my car in Harvard Yard. (darn it I pronounced all the Rs)
