désolé

In French, to say, sorry, you say, désolé.
“I feel so badly about what just happened that I am bereft of company” seems a little extreme, though.

Got this wool on Thursday, from friends of Zac’s family; started spinning it immediately.

“pergunt inde Collatiam, ubi Lucretiam…nocte sera deditam lanae inter lucubrantes ancillas in medio aedium sedentem inveniunt.”

They then continued to Collatia, where they found Lucretia…spinning wool, sitting in the middle of the house, among her maidens, working by lamplight, late in the night.

Wool: Knit Picks Wool of the Andes in Coal; Knit Picks Palette in Cream (held doubled)
Needles: sz.7 straights
slightly larger than the other (obviously), because this is intended for wintertime.
I hope it is not too drab.
Note the spinning in the background!
first day of summer: baking

maybe a slight rip-off of the original– used cheap cheddar instead of the havarti & mozerella called for.
intended use: picnic.
