Iraqi Police Training
Yesterday, during an interview on NPR (sorry, can't remember which show, but probably Morning Edition) a trainer for the Iraqi police said that the first rule for the police force is "Don't shoot someone just because he insults you."
I think this is a good motto. If I still did cross stitch, I'd center it on a sampler!
I was up half the night with work-related crises, so this will be a short entry.
Here's where I am on the blankie. I've knitted roughly 2.5 balls of Frenzy. It's about 18" square and I am moving onto the 60" needle.
The first ball (the center) knitted to about 11" square (121 square inches). Based on that, I figure that my finished blankie (assuming that I use all 18 balls) will be roughly 46" square.
That would be a nice size, but a little big for an infant or toddler. Thinking about my options. . .
Sorry to not be entertaining, but my pillow is calling my name.

Blankie is looking good! also very big for his age. I'm jealous. I have much, much older projects I'm working on that aren't nearly as done. (possibly it's the amount of time spent actually working on them?)
