What's that you say? Why would I need a bunch of lovely dark gray yarn and little bits of lots of pretty rainbow yarn? Why might I need such things real damn bad and right this very moment? What sort of urgent, seasonally appropriate project might be bubbling away in [...]

"Oh," they say, "that will be easy," they say, "just sneak up on her while she's sleeping and plop it on her head," they say. Thus confirming my suspicion that they have not ever tried to do any such thing. ⁠ My darlings, I'm fond of you all, but you [...]
