Notes

2021-10-08 Clue I

Picked yarns from my stash that have significance in memory of my dad, especially when launch day today was his birth date.

Colour A = Harbour (teal)
* Bought this yarn at Knit City 2019 to knit my dad more socks. He loved my handknit socks. His birthday was Oct 8.

Colour B = Beach Bunny (light blue and multi speckled)
* My birthday is 3 days after my dad’s. Hubby bought me this yarn for Xmas 2019, all by himself (sort of). LOL!

Colour C = Baaad Anna (red-purple)
* A very heartfelt gift from BA’s Paula when my dad was in hospital in the fall of 2020 and his condition was very grim.

Colour D = Ash (gray)
* Leftovers from the Pixel Stitch socks I knit for my mom for her birthday of Jan 2021. It’s her 1st pair of hand-knit socks from me!

Colour E = Darwin (teal)
* The year 2020 needs no explaining. Grateful for family, friends, and colleagues. This yarn was a BA Secret Santa gift from Sarah. smiling_face_with_3_hearts
