Speed Bump


The perfect activity while home sick (snuffle, snort, grab a tissue) would be to work on a somewhat brainless knitting project, for which I am facing a serious deadline. Sadly, just as I have reached the sick-enough-to-not-leave-home phase, my pretty-but-pricey Lantern Moon ebony 10.5 has self destructed. Major sigh. I don't have another 10.5 long enough to continue the project. (It's a present, so no details or images until it is done and gifted. OK - you can see a sneak peek in the picture above.) I think I will take the Kleenex box and go back to bed.

.... A much needed nap later....

I found an aged, but still viable, tube of super glue in the garage. It seems to be holding so far.

Hope it lasts - I'm crossing my fingers :)

Oh dang, sorry you're sick. If I was there, I'd bring you every 10.5 I have (like 3) to help, and maybe some homemade (from homegrown) chicken soup.

Get better soon...

Hope you feel better today! It was nice to talk to you yesterday, even if I was just looking for phone numbers, and thanks :)

Hi there,
I work at Lantern Moon and am very sorry to hear this. I can replace this for you no problem, just send me an email at carma@lanternmoon.com and let me know what length the needle is, and your shipping address.

I hope your feeling better!!!!
