I had quite a laugh while watching c-span last night. There was a woman speaking about her dedication to the pro-life movement while standing on the mall in DC wearing a fur coat. Apparently, the sanctity of life doesn't apply to mink! What a bunch of hypocrites....
My sweater is coming along nicely, though not progressing at the speed with which I started the project. I hope that the yarn will soften up after a few washings. The sweater is a bit abrasive now, which is not desirable. I'm almost to the armholes now.
