I was chosen to report for jury selection on the first day of school. Clearly not idea for the school secretary. They rescheduled me and I gladly reported for duty. In the end, I was not selected, but it was a day of sitting and knitting. I was very productive.

This is the Bohdi Leaf Washcloth by Julia Farwell-Clay. It was featured in the MDK Field Guide No. 7 – Ease. You can see my Ravelry notes here. It is a terrific project for using up small amounts of cotton. It is interesting to see how the same pattern and same needles produce three different sized cloths using different brands of worsted weight yarn. These cloths will go into a gift basket for work, along with some lovely soaps.
My husband challenged me to wear this shirt to jury duty.

I did not.
Saint of the Day: Our Lady of Guadalupe. What can I say? A beautiful encounter with the Blessed Mother. ”Mary’s appearance to Juan Diego as one of his people is a powerful reminder that Mary—and the God who sent her—accept all peoples.”
In my cup: More of that yummy Irish tea.
In my ears: Fruity Knitting. A classic knitting podcast. I am listening to the episode where Andrea and Madeleine interview the mother/daughter team behind Knitting for Olive. Check it out…their knits are beautiful and classic.


Those bodhi leaves are cute! A perfect quick gift.

I love that t-shirt, and you should have worn it! I was called for jury duty a couple of times, once was when I was in the process of moving from NY to PA so I was not selected, and once when I was on heavy duty pain meds for my back and the judge thought I might not be clear headed enough to make a good decision about someone’s life. I agreed. I don’t remember what I was working on, but I also got some knitting done. Those cloths are lovely, by the way

In hindsight, I really wish I had worn the t-shirt. I did not know what to expect so I erred on the side of caution. I could have totally pulled it off!

When I said I was on pain meds, the judge was totally funny. I guess we forget they’re people too

They could have used a little comic relief that day.
