of Stephen Sheard, founder of Rowan Yarn,
here. (Thanks to L. for the heads-up.) I'll be blogging more next week, just as soon as the kids are back in school. Right now, I'm listening to wails of "Mom - he looked at me!" and "Did not!" and other assorted annoying, bicker-ish remarks, and I'm about to put my hands over my ears and sing "La-la-la-I-can't-HEAR-you" for a little while.
How funny that he called 1986-1996 as the knitting doldrums. I learned to knit in 1988. Maybe that's why I could only find yarn in Liberty's. THAT started a bad habit...
ReplyDeleteHave they started drawing lines they're not supposed to cross yet? If I were you, I'd hide in your room with plenty of chocolate...
ReplyDeleteThanks for this link, Carol. 'Cause I've been in retail for eons as well as being a weaver & knitter, I really enjoyed the depth of this interview.

Great interview - thanks!
ReplyDeleteAnd the reason the kids do this now is so you don't miss them quite so much next week... it's like, their job or something - yours just sound like they're really good at it...
The peace of an empty house on a school day is a blessed thing indeed! Hang on a few more days.
ReplyDeleteLast Friday I came home with sloppy joes in my....bra. Couldn't school just start on September the 8th.
ReplyDeleteTee hee, I just wrote a blog post about this problem. I am not sure how we are going to make it through one more week of this. Correction: should say how *I* am going to make it through one more week because it doesn't really seem to be bothering them at all.
ReplyDeleteI am SOOOO glad school starts Sept. 8! Even though I'm only blessed with one child, she has her moments ...
ReplyDeleteI know I'm not the L this time -- but glad you liked the interview. the other L
ReplyDeleteWell, if the other L is not "the L" (and of course she IS), who the L is the L?
