On Sunday, during her whirlwind romp through Philadelphia, Kate Davies stopped by Rosie’s Yarn Cellar for pastries and chat. 

And, with her, she brought the original Paper Dolls (much shorter than the pattern – definitely inspiring me to rip the bottom our of mine, since I used two different dyelots of cream), and another Paper Doll incarnation –

Sweet colors!  Every time I see a different version of this sweater, I feel this pull to knit another one . . . but then I realize that’s silly – although, the beret version would be sweet . . .

And, she also brought the original Owls sweater – if it weren’t almost 80 degrees, I would have tried it on! 

Anyway, I just had time to say hi, knit a few rows, and dash off to Michael’s to buy stuff to make wedding favors.  Does this post seemed rushed – that’s the way everything is these days.  Everytime I think everything is done, I remember something else I have to do.  I was in Macy’s after court this morning, and I noticed some crystal earrings – uch, have to get a hair doo-hickey for the back of my hair.  Then later, I was telling someone about our stupid favors, and I that made me think about the tables, and I remembered that I hadn’t forwarded our table placecard list to the printers – gar!  All is well, though, I have plenty of time — 25 days, two homicide trials, 2 Springsteen concerts, and one Them Crooked Vultures Show to go!
