Hey, fellow teachers sitting there with nerves about term starting tomorrow. It will all be fine once the kids are in front of you. It always is.

@kariebookish There was a pair of colourwork socks, now recalled as 'The Socks from Hell's. Knitted for a submission deadline. First one, fine. Second one...many, many attempts as time kept dwindling and the mistakes kept happening...ten years on and I still can't think about too long.

@pwfibre @StolenStitches Same!!!

[Anna Elliott @AnnaEDesigns]

@kariebookish So sorry to hear this. Sending all good wishes.

[Anna Elliott @AnnaEDesigns]

@kariebookish Same. My conscience salving move has been to change my job so that I will be teaching hundreds of small people how to knit, sew, crochet etc. Therefore stash acquisition is part of my job 😁
