Really Old Stuff

I'm currently in Bloomington, Indiana. Here's some stuff I should have blogged about *before* the Flin Flon trip.

Here's a photo of my KnitPicks order, or, at least, the stuff for me:

Thanks Sue! (About half of that is what I used my gift certificate on. I'm going to e-mail you a thank-you, but my book with your address is out in the car, and my e-mail program doesn't seem to be bringing up your e-mail address.)

Speaking of people I need to e-mail, Zoe, I'll be sending one to your mom too. (Same e-mail issue.) I'd be happy to make you a pair of socks. I'll e-mail details.

I think that needle gauge will make a neat Christmas tree ornament. (I think the sizes are British.)

Also in the old stuff category, H and I showed J the display in the Geology building at the U of M:

Aren't the trilobites cute?
