Kiss My Knits!

DRTvini: Apparently, they make yarn out of New Zealand possum fur. Clearly, I need some.
Tessima: You do not.
DRTvini: I do so!
Tessima: No!

DRTvini: How can you resist something called “Superwash Possum Worsted?”
Tessima: Who are you going to pawn that off on?
DRTvini: You don’t want a scarf in Superwash Possum Worsted Eggplant?
DRTvini: Maybe I can give it to someone, and AFTER they wear it, i tell them it’s possum.
DRTvini: Besides. It’s only 30 percent possum.
Tessima: And what’s the rest?
Tessima: Higher or lower on the food chain?
DRTvini: It’s sheep.
Tessima: Sheep and possums should not exist together in a garment.
DRTvini: They don’t mention whether they scrape the possum off the road, but I’m betting they don’t.
DRTvini: Oooh! Now, you know you want something made of “Possum Fingering.”
Tessima: … no.
DRTvini: All the cool kids are wearing it?
DRTvini: You’d wear mohair, wouldn’t you? That’s brushed from goat bellies!
Tessima: I don’t like mohair, either! Itchy.
DRTvini: Alpaca?
Tessima: You want a petting zoo.
DRTvini: A dead, spun petting zoo that I can re-form into my own garments of the damned.
Tessima: What a cozy thought. Just what I think about when I think about a woman with knitting needles.
DRTvini: Did you know that a baby alpaca is called a cria? Making the act of giving birth… yes… criation?
Tessima: …
Tessima: [Tvini]!
DRTvini: I could not make that up.
DRTvini: You disbelieved me and looked it up, didn’t you?
Tessima: I didn’t!
DRTvini: Don’t mock the woman with needles!
DRTvini: Possum hater.
DRTvini: I want to livejournal your possum hatred in this conversation.

She was afk, but so incensed was I by her blatant anti-possum bias that I livejournaled it anyway!

All I know is that somebody’s gonna get a little possum present under the tree this year. Count on it.
