If you are ever searching for a project, I'd send you yarn and chocolate in exchange forr wristwarmers.

If you ever have yarn, send it to me. My fear is that the wristwarmers might not be up to MacKenzie-scratch. Hmmm. Well, think on it. You know my address. Also, I would buy the yarn for you and do it on the commission of love, but I am a broke-ass bitch.

The yarn that works the best is fuzzy, meaning mohair type. For Rose's I used Rowan Kid Classic in black and turquoise, which for reasons that confuse me the website pretends doesn't exist. The colors on the website look terrible. If mohair makes you itch, acrylic or other will do, but it won't look as cohesive and nice. They are rib-stitched and work best with two colors. If you paypal me I can buy the yarn here, but it is expensive and you might not like the colors. Also, they are not fancy up there at the top, just a little hole for your thumb. They are based on these wristwarmers I once bought from a girl online (she doesn't sell them anymore, bah!), and mine kick ass because I hate gloves (fingers need contact for warmth! and I can curl them up in the wrist warmers ( ... )

Would you possibly consider teaching me to make a buttonhole, possibly?

Of course! How? I have a web camera...but it's weird. And. How? Just really detailed descriptions?

I'll probably need to see you at some point for the teaching...
Are you ever coming back to this general area? (Or should I start scouting tix for Scotland?)
