Oh dear! oh dear! oh dear! Couldn`t miss that bargain, could I? So I ordered three bags full of ruby. I`m going to try the Classic Elite Pattern #677 Intertwined Lives, the yarn may be too too soft, but will see. I don`t usually knit a garment in the colour shown in the pattern, just on principle, but . . . Ann was wearing a sample of this sweater when she came over in September - it looked great, so I have been watching for some yarn for it. Of course, I already have HW Rudy sitting in one of those white boxes on the floor - but DD has coverted that and it has started to grow into a poncho.

Hey MacChick,

If you`re really desperate to make HP scarves for Christmas, i can send you a couple balls from my stash... it`s not even from this year, it`s from *last* year... so I figure I probably won`t get around to using it until the next time rolls around! Just let me know :-). I do also have one lonely ball of Ruby from this year`s production if you`d like that.

MACCHICK!!!!! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING GIRL????!!!!! I CANNOT believe you didn`t order any ruby! Okay, calm down, it`s coming back in January, Bea`s got some and I`ve got PLENTY. Let me know how much you need, there`s no way I can get mine knitted up before January. Not with the frog rate I`ve got going (grumble, grumble...)
