What a glorious day it is. I know it has been a long time since my last post, but again KOAS!!! Life happens. First of all jury duty. I had a plan, I had the yarn, the needles, other stuff that is a must for every knitting bag. I was ready - until I read the jury notice. Then, my heart fell. All that deciding and preparing for me to read - no knitting needles . Are you kidding me! Like, who am I planning to stab?! After all, I do have bamboo needles as well as metal.

I guess you can see why its titled "kaos". I think that I am in the majority when it come to too many ideas and things already on needles or lying in weight to tempt you to start yet another thing.
