I love your lamb, too--I'll need to get more the next time I visit my friends in Brattleboro.<br />PS--JP is part of Boston, people just get really specific about their neighborhoods there.

The download from your blog page also worked OK for me, and produced a file identical to the one on the server - no errors.<br /><br />If there was a glitch in your reader's internet connection as she was doing the download, that could explain why the file arrived damaged.<br /><br />Each of you should completely clear the cache and history on your browser so neither of your computers has any recollection of the previous attempt, and then try clicking the download link again.<br /><br />If that doesn't work, we can email the calendar file to her. <br /><br />From KN: Isn't Lori brilliant? Hope this works. If not, as she said email me and I will send directly to you.Kristin Nicholashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09038900681076035087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23619317.post-70439172095027011782012-03-16T11:16:29.440-04:002012-03-16T11:16:29.440-04:00Hi, Kristin -- At your urging :) I tried to downlo...Hi, Kristin -- At your urging :) I tried to download the calendars.

Your honesty regarding the hard work it takes to run a farm, your designs, all what you do are interesting and educational for me.<br /><br />Yes, I did see your advertisement in VK. I did not renew my VK subscription last year; if I see an issue that has a few patterns I like, I buy it - like I did yesterday. And, there you were! Your designs make me smile, and I was smiling at the end of the VK due to your ad. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself.Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17938868059360942064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23619317.post-91914447012004769592012-03-16T07:42:44.661-04:002012-03-16T07:42:44.661-04:00Hi Kristin, I don't get VK anymore automatical...Hi Kristin, I don't get VK anymore automatically, but I will sometimes buy it when I am in a store. When I was self-employed I always thought word of mouth was so much better than the "AD", and cheaper. There are 'business thoughts' from the 'mind stew' that seem to impel you to spend the money on the <br />AD. Since I am so into the money aspect this morning, hopefully, when I finish my taxes I will be able to spend some money on your class.Heidinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23619317.post-26445209502713460992012-03-16T06:23:30.451-04:002012-03-16T06:23:30.451-04:00The computer is my connection to the outside world...The computer is my connection to the outside world. I appreciate ALL you do/offer. I left corporate America, to raise my kids. My husband started his own business & it's a struggle! I give-away lots, but I'm not 'famous', just love to share what I'm passionate about.

I've been meaning to get over to JP to check out JP Knits and vist some old haunts, now I have a reason but I niggling thought that something else is going on that night. We'll see. By the way Boston is a little odd in that people will speak of their neighborhood, JP, East Boston, Roslindale, as if it were a separate place but they are all parts of the city.JRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14822597567988819971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23619317.post-50398882486511227812012-03-15T13:55:44.656-04:002012-03-15T13:55:44.656-04:00I so enjoy your blog, Kristin!

Like meppybn, though, I am starting a shift to supporting independent designers as I want you and people like you to get the full benefit of your labor. (If I am mis-guided in my efforts, please let me know!) Thanks for explaining your challenges in explaining your work to your daughter. I still have trouble wrapping my head around that while trying to make similar things happen with my own income. Hard to make it happen when your mind has trouble getting past thinking you need to go somewhere other than home to make a living. Keep writing ~ I'm looking forward to reading!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11226384645190148835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23619317.post-81308605254376923302012-03-15T12:06:05.267-04:002012-03-15T12:06:05.267-04:00Love checking in each day to read your blog and no...Love checking in each day to read your blog and no, I don't subscribe to VK anymore. Early last year I 'vowed' to only support indie designers, even though it's not economical on my part (i.e. 25-30 patterns for $8 as opposed to 1). I know you all work so hard to be self-supported and just want to come alongside. If I lived in Mass. I would buy your lamb (am from New Zealand and <3 <3 <3 lamb!!) So go ahead and shamelessly self-promote :)meppybnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14173716082268756621noreply@blogger.com
