Ritz Crackers
Some folks might consider it incredibly low-brow, but I love the taste of Ritz Crackers. I eat them most every day.
Ritz Crackers and Peanut Butter and Knitting
As a knitter who eats more Kraft Peanut Butter on a Ritz than most people on the planet, I was gobsmacked when I saw this sweater on social media.


Back in the seventies, clothes company, Orphan Annie sold this “pop art” sweater. That’s Sylvester in the photo on the left wearing the sweater. As delighted as I was to see that this iconic cracker had gotten its own sweater design, I realized quickly that it’s not something I would ever actually wear.
But I still might swatch it up. So I made a two-color chart for it.

I don’t know if it will work, since I haven’t tried it yet, but I think it might be the next stranded knitting demo piece I make.
Current Knitting/Spinning
I finished the last steek demo piece and started the next one.



The recently finished demo piece is strangely similar to the Ritz sweater graphic. You can also see that there are two steek sections on this tube, so I can use it as a demo model twice.
I also added some singles to my current spinning project.

Slowly but surely I’m finishing up the darker merino roving.

Careful Joe, you don’t have the correct number of holes on your design
Best regards
I’ve normally replied to your postings privately but had to say something today. Big fan of your blog. But you already know that.
Sylvester is a marvelous icon for all gay men. Biased opinion, I admit. Love his music even though some of his choices in life were sad. Thanks for sharing this photo.
Great spinning. Looking forward to seeing what it becomes.
Best wishes to you, Thaddeus and handsome Finn. Take care.
