Dear Jan,

At our corporate leadership conference social hour, someone thought it would be amusing to read the auras of the scientists and engineers.  I was amazed at how long the line was in this highly technical audience.  My aura showed high physical energy and spirituality (and maybe a little obstinance, but hey, who believes these things, anyway?).

A little bit prettier around the neck, or at least more obvious to the casual observer, my version of Stephen West’s Windschief.  It is knit from Alchemy 50/50 merino silk, one skein with a few yards left.  It will be a gift to a friend at work who has had a rough year, something to keep her warm going into the winter.  I started it one evening last week and did the bulk of the knitting on Friday at the retreat I attended last weekend.

Also from last weekend, but far from finished, a doorprize I was absolutely delighted to win - the Blackberry Ridge Spider Queen shawl kit.  Each of the four of us who planned and taught the retreat won a prize - happy coincidence!

I hope your weekend is full of happy coincidences, too.

Love,

Ellen
