One Skein

9 hours ago by Wendy

In the comments to yesterday’s post, Angela asked if my Talisman Shawl will take more than one skein. I’m planning for it to take only one (since that’s all I’ve got). The Wollmeise is a lovely big skein — 575 yards. For this shawl, after you work the set-up chart, you can repeat the body chart as m ...

1 day ago by RuthieJ

I'm fortunate to have a Mayo Clinic Blood Donor Center at my place of employment, which makes it easy for me to take 45 minutes out of my workday and donate a unit of blood. The donor center also opens up early, so I was able to get one of the 6:30 appointments and here I am, with my 110th unit of A ...

Donating Busy

6 days ago by gfox

Just got back from donating blood. The whole process took longer than normal since they were so busy. Who would have thought they would be busier mid-day than the evening. Weird.

Received an email last night telling me I am eligible again to donate blood. (It has been 8 weeks since my last donation.) I gave up today’s scheduled run in favor of donating blood.
