Background: My sister-in-law knits. I do not.

Rob: [looking at mail] You got some kind of envelope or something.
Me: Um, that certainly narrows it down.
Rob: It's handwritten. It's from a person, not a company.
Me: I got mail from a person? Huh...
Rob: It's one of those yellow padded envelopes.
Me: ... OH I KNOW what that is! It's YARN!!
Rob: Like we really needed some of THAT.
Me: It's pretty. I'm going to give it to Rosemary.
Rob: [relieved] Oh, okay.

Heh. He had exactly the stereotypical reaction to yarn coming into the house... and he's not even partnered to a knitter. I could hear his eyes rolling from the next room. He and my brother should chat. :-)

EEEE! More SOCKS! I will, um, probably not wash them properly either, but I'm totally happy to take them and wear them until I goof. Thank you! And now you get some yarn in trade. Don't tell Dave. ;-) (kidding - he reads this, so it's too late)
