I met a former Pittsburgh Steeler who knits!

My friends Mary Ellen, Nancy, and I went to the Pittsburgh Knit & Crochet Festival today.  
So much yarn, so little time . . . .
The angora bunny was popular, 
but angora yarn makes me sneeze.
Former Pittsburgh Steeler Randy Grossman's wife Barb is the festival organizer, and Randy has taught knitting classes at some previous events--how cool is that?  He was very gracious to pose for a photo, and
to also allow me to photograph his 3rd 
Super Bowl ring (he has 4).
My afghan square knitted for the charity
I had such a good time.  Thank you Lord for friends and the ability to enjoy ourselves together.

I heard a rumor that you can't put that stuff in a dryer after you wash it.

ps. My image of Randy Grossman is destroyed forever! :)

You made me laugh out loud, as usual!

Hey--you know what? I remembered that Rosey Greer was a knitter, too. (And if I remember Rosey Greer, I know you do, too.)
