i've got a bug
October 15, 2008
The knitting bug that is, as if you haven't noticed. I've been really working the needles lately. I have this book, Mostly Mittens by Charlene Schurch. Only I couldn't find it.
So I looked on Amazon for it. I did find it there only the cheapest one I could find was $63.06. Yikes! I was not going to pay that price for a book I already have, and I bought mine years ago for only around $12.00. I can't even remember where either.
I love this book and I did start to make a pair of mittens. Jim got me some yarn for Christmas one year. I guess I was too timid to keep going. But, not any more. Aside from socks this is next on my list of things to make.
Okay, back to my book. So yesterday I looked high and low for my book. I knew I had put it somewhere. When I had decided to move my sewing room upstairs, I packed a lot of my books and magazines away.
But, I found it after searching for a bit. This is the coolest book and like cookbooks I love looking at it. You can tell by the tape on the left side of the book that it's been read. It wasn't like that when I got it. I couldn't believe the price for this book now. I think I'll hang on to this one. I think it's a keeper.
