I read somewhere that mathish activities like making quilts and knitting lace are supposed to help with forgetfulness, so I have been knitting is a lacy shawl out of multi-colored silk/mohair yarn. When I bought the yarn at Village Wools in Albuquerque, I found myself explaining that I live part of the year in Istanbul and part of the year in Mountainair.
“Oh,” said the shopkeeper. “You are so lucky! I have always wanted to live in Mountainair!”

That shawl is very beautiful!
Does the knitting help? With what?
Intriguing. No reflection on Mountanair, but that wouldn’t have been my answer. My path is clear: send this to the Chamber of Commerce.
