Knights in Shining Armor
Today there is celebration over the release of Laura Ling and Euna Lee all across the world.
Great, Glorious, Shout it from the Mountain Tops Celebration!
I mean, after all, how often does your knight in shining armor fly in to secure your release from the ogre in the castle?
In addition, how often does the Knight secure your release and allow the Ogre to save face.
All in all, a very good day.
Add to all this Sock Summit ’09 begins tomorrow – a monumental week to be sure!
Surely, there are not enough knitted socks in the world – if there were, Ogres would not be so ogre-ish. More people would be spending more time talking to each other about the fab socks adorning each others feet and what new socks are in process! Knights in Shining Armor would not need to come to the aid of Damsels in Distress, they would come in search of the Holy Grail – hand knit socks to adorn their feet.
If you have not experienced the luxury of a hand knit sock on your foot you have not lived.
It is not hard; it just requires a small amount of determination, a simple pattern, some sock yarn, and some pointy sticks.
Won’t you join me in working towards World Peace – one hand knitted sock at a time?
Oh, and…
Welcome home Ladies!
