Is there one person on earth who clicks on incomprehensible, obscene, and unwanted messages? Even one? How can it be worth the spammer's time?<br /><br />But back to the post-- I am amazed that you could get something that inspired out of the interior of an office! (A notoriously uninspired place, I should know). <br /><br />Nice pen case! I second (or third?) that knitting is hard. It takes a lot of time. Scrounge around on etsy.com for ideas for knitted or sewn cases for knitting needles. One could easily adapt one of those ideas for pens. <br /><br />I prefer sewing with a machine to knitting. It takes a small fraction of the time.Strikethruhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07797111328778577303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36092055.post-50978382771115024452009-08-24T06:43:28.734-07:002009-08-24T06:43:28.734-07:00I'm a pen slinger...don't mess with me. ;-...I'm a pen slinger...don't mess with me. ;-)<br /><br />And apparently I have arrived--I've had a spammer these past twelve hours or so. Apologies to those who have seen those messages. It's someone who's actually entering the word verification, so other than changing to approve comments (which I hate to do if I don't have to), I can't do anything. :-\Elizabeth H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09161162407130146871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36092055.post-41020022088847396682009-08-24T06:35:24.055-07:002009-08-24T06:35:24.055-07:00Heh.

Not very good at knitting though, but last year for her birthday, I took her to this little rural yarn shop and had the owner demo a couple of knitting machines.<br /><br />She went with the LK-150, and she has been using it to create all sorts of great things: baby blankets, headbands, baby dresses.<br /><br />"Machine" is a bit of a misnomer, as its all human-powered, but it apparently makes a huge difference in time spent.<br /><br />She still loves to crochet by hand, but I'd say the knitting machine was a great gift!deekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18140131381076720375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36092055.post-48888542321903790342009-08-23T17:03:16.894-07:002009-08-23T17:03:16.894-07:00Great post, thank you.

This reminded me of the pen case I looked for in various second hand stores, and which I finally found, and the particular collection of pens and mechanical pencils that I store in it. Sounds like inspiration for a blog entry. I'll have to remember give credit where credit is due.<br /><br />WV: "irept," as in "I rept this idea off from Little Flower Petals."

If you are good with a crochet needle, I would recommend sticking with it!<br /><br />Love the poem. Butterflies always draw me to the resurrection, new life, and I think your poem would be a perfect description of the beauty of resurrection-walking hand and hand on eternity's shore.
