Knitters are the Best

This morning when I logged into my blogger account I found a comment by Marie-Odile from Paris inviting me to come join her knitting group when I am in Paris. You have no idea how happy that made me!

Their Tricot cafe meets at Le Pain Quotidien on place du marche St Germain from 6 to 10 p.m. I will be coming back from Deauville, and heading directly there.

Which reminds me, what knitting will I be bringing to France? 6 hours on the plane, plus a couple hours of waiting at the airport... I could make a lot of progress on a very exciting and secret project...

I am very tempted to bring my crochet chevron blanket too... It is bright, and cheery, and it makes me think of my family, I picked one color for each one of us, the deep red for Miss SockPixie, the fuschia for Little Miss SockPixie, the Plum for Mr. SockPixie, the bright red for Young Mr. SockPixie, the green for Little Mr. SockPixie, the Orange for me, and the sunny yellow, for Tiny Pixie the little baby that left us so quickly, but is still in our hearts.
