Hi L, Thank you for you kind note about my blog, Who Gives a Knit. I have been working so much and haven't been knitting as much, plus I'm investigating other blog sites to make mine better. I have visited some yarn stores and want to talk about them. ALSO, GRACIE THANKS YOU. I do pug rescue and I've yet to find a "bad pug". Oh they all have "house breaking problems" . . expect that perhaps for the rest of her life, but they are all loving creatures. Some are more rambucious than others, but still all love to be hugged and cuddled when they're sleeping . . .like children. You've done a good thing for Gracie and your children. Tell the world about rescuing dogs. So many need loving homes.
