Customer Service ...Cheers
This is how a bottle of Savignon Blanc looks on the hot pavement of Chicago in August. and yes I did think about licking it up...but just for a nanosecond...
Oops. The bottle literally leapt out of my bag in the Target parking lot.
I break everything breakable. When are they going to invent a rubber wine bottle? (I know ..boxed wine is already here)
I picked up the glass pieces, and there were plenty.
Somehow the knit gods smiled down upon me and I didnt cut a finger in the process.
I took my sad little pieces back to the customer service counter and God Bless Leroy, he gave me another bottle of wine.
Way to go Target.
It's too dang hot to knit another Christmas stocking right now.
That blanket may end where it is because even when I knit on it for 3 days straight only a tiny new row of color mocks me.
And lets face it, no one in their right mind knits a blanket that's a tube and twice as heavy as the normal blanket, when it is August in Chicago.
So here you go: I'm knitting an orange sock.
I'm happy and I'm not complaining.
Summer is hot and by its very nature means more of us knit socks.....
Are you knitting things on tiny needles ?
What have you broken lately?
Comments
Like Judy, I recently broke a needle on my sewing machine.
I broke a stoneware bowl at Bethany's house on Sunday. It bounced beautifully at first--one, two bounces, then crack. I'm so glad the Margaritas were in a plastic pitcher.
My "small" needle right now is a 4. For socks.
I don't break so much as constantly spill! I am knitting socks...never tired of socks.
As soon as I get home, I will turn my little stash of leftover sock yarn into a blanket...I hope you and Dee are satisfied cuz it is your fault! lol
What have I broken --------I guess you could say I broke one of my car's tires. I got a nail in my tire somewhere up in north Florida.
Tell Delighted Hands I will GLADLY take the blame for her blanket startitis!!! LOL
I love the orange sock. I am still working on my giant Aubade pie shawl with tiny lace yarn and itty bitty needles. I can only work on it first thing in the morning or I just don't have the patience. It'll be years before it's done.
I was sad for your Sauvignon Blanc puddle, but I think it so so fantastic that they replaced it for you. Yay! I hope you put some ice cubes in there!
I can't blame you for not wanting to knit anything bigger than a sock right now. That heat sounds suffocating. I do love your orange sock. I'm thinking it reminds me of a summer creamscicle or dreamsicle in some parts. Do you like those? mmm!
Also, bravo to Target for replacing your wine - that is some amazing customer service!
