Sean is going to use the mildly disapointed voice when he read's this. I am church mouse poor. There is no denying this. I've also spent a week in the fruitless effort of teaching myself to purl. I know no knitters in LA who can teach me. The nice ladies of Sit 'n Stitch offer classes Monday night for beginners for $25. I've signed up for one. I need it desperately. I also picked up a Sock Pattern book for $15. That is all of my fun purchases until the end of August. I'm reallly scared about my financial situation. Which doesn't help that I want Chinese food which is a restaurant buy. I hope to God it all works out alright. I think I'm going to kill some trolls in NWN to make me feel better.
