Is any of you following this latest Ravelry mess closely? So that you can explain it to me in a sentence or two?? Just wondering. --Therese Thérèse Shere Freelance indexing & digital information design http://www.shere-indexing.com

I've begun using the breathe easy mask and purchased the fabric that was used in the testing at Joanne's Fabric and Crafts. I make it double layer. If I'm feeling skittish, I do add a layer of Filti next to my face. I've taken a look at the underlying testing of the fabric and feel comfortable with it. You can make them with a simple straight stitch. I like the fit and the wearability in hot weather. She's got a couple of breathe easy Youtubes but this can get you started. Her website links the research into the fabric used. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4P8_RC4oXMs&t=143s Mary

You know how when people respond to a BLM message with “all lives matter” and other people say “you wouldn’t say that at a Breast Cancer event?” I posted a note to Facebook, protesting the “pinkification” of October. A friend borrowed it to her page. Okay, no problem, until a friend (male) of hers posted “but what about *my* cancer. So, yes. It really does happen. Ann in PA

I got a call the other day (Tuesday? They all run together.) from my old “big boss” asking if I could come “back” for a short while (paid) to help straighten out inventory. I’ve been gone 5 years (as of last month). How many times am I expected to bail them out? I’m assuming that the external auditor just got to the food bank program. . . Reconciling physical inventory is an important part of running a distribution center. Ann in PA

Therese, Amy, Shannon, Sarah, Any of you affected? I think some might be close to Therese. Not sure about the So Cal ones and I don't think there are any around Sacramento but I don't know. T I am sure many of you are suffering from bad air due to the smoke. -- Jaya http://knitsarina.blogspot.com/

?Anyone interested in a gorgeous Drudik wheel? This is #5 made by Mr. McTavish, the man who studied under Magnus Drudik and took over the business before Magnus passed away. This is the Smaller version and made of Myrtlewood. The Original owner only spun on it a couple of times. It was offered to me by an online friend who is now 75 yo and has decided to pare down her herd. She bought it from the original owner, had her send it directly to McTavish to have it gone over. He found nothing needing attention. She had him make 3 additional bobbins for it. When it arrived at her home, she opened the box, looked in to see everything was fine and that’s where it’s been. Still in the box in her spinning/weaving studio! She owns a couple of Golding wheels that she uses a lot. (Those are works of art) And she’s a big fan of her Hansen. She owns a weaving studio and still teaches weaving and spinning classes. Loves Saori weaving. I’ve always had my heart set on a full-size Drudik in a dark wood. So I asked her if I could share this with my trusted friends. She said she’d much rather sell it this way than some public forum. There is over a 5-year waiting list to get a Drudik wheel. Pics will follow in a separate post. Connie

I finally have restarted the Swedish Heartwarmer Shawl that many Mongers knit about a decade ago. And, I realized I had used the wrong color to begin the shawl all those years ago! I had to rip it as the gauge on the suggested needle was too tight for me to knit the color work comfortably so I started on a slightly bigger needle this time. -- Jaya http://knitsarina.blogspot.com/

I’d love to hear how people are doing. Between virus, floods, fires, storms (locusts?) it has not been a great year. Are we all making lemonade with our lemons? I’m struggling a bit, with one daughter trapped in Scotland for many months and now just got out to see her dad in Switzerland only to be caught by the new quarantine regs for people coming from Switzerland back to the UK. One daughter still shielding with a very vulnerable young husband. My DH stuck out in Geneva – we managed two good meetings over the summer but now every time I go out I’ll have to do 2 weeks quarantine on return (great excuse for more knitting time?)…… Meanwhile my mother fell over their elderly tomcat and broke her leg and detached her calf muscle. Two weeks in hospital, now home but not complying with instructions for full recovery. Didn’t do the cat much good either, and I had to take him and his elderly sister to the vet for their final farewells. Between us siblings, we managed to have someone in London with my dad for the two weeks until Mum came home, but with everyone at work this is not viable long term. Both parents clearly failing badly, lockdown has I think accelerated this. I seem to spend half of every day in communication with docs, optician, carers, social services, assessors of various kinds – and Mum herself who calls multiple times sometimes quite rationally but often not. My current daily average of calls from or about parents is ten – excluding whatever the four siblings generate. They are now trapped in a 3 storey house with stairs neither can safely climb, but still flatly refuse to relocate. We tried so often to tempt them to do the move some time over the last 8 years while they were still hale and hearty – but of course they wanted to wait until they “needed to”. Which was their right. I’m trying to knit on, as they say. Garter stitch is about all I can manage but there are so many clever patterns using this in interesting shapes and colour changes. At least I have plenty of yarn on hand ? How are all the kids of school and college age coping? In many ways I think it is hardest for them. Very best of wishes to everyone Jenny

I had my annual mammogram on Monday (MRI next Monday, breast surgeon the following). Got a call today from the hospital to come back for more imaging (next Thursday) because there’s asymmetry on the left side. I am chalking it up to reduction surgery I had a few years after the initial lumpectomies on the right, but for the next eight days, I will worry. Ann in PA

I thought I'd move this to its own thread so others can ignore it. If there is enough interest, we can work out times. So right now, tell me if you want to participate and what days/times are NOT good (can be a range like 9-5 weekdays). -- Jaya http://knitsarina.blogspot.com/

from my knitting group - Saw this on Ravelry - ?https://www.ravelry.com/forum-images/JerseyLightning/43o99-4kyhfl If you find comfort in imagery, I can quite imagine Cat teaching RBG how to knit a moebius dissent collar. Joan

Had my follow up mammogram this morning (surreal experience, socially distanced). The radiologist found “nothing significant” and so, I can breathe again. I did not sleep last night. At All. Appointment (annual) with the breast surgeon on Monday. It should be routine (she says hopefully). Thanks for all the Mongerjuju. That’s powerful stuff! Ann in PA
