Remembrance
A moment of silence, if you please, for those who lost so very very much.

About Me
- Name: Romi
- Location: Beautiful Northern Nevada, United States
I've always loved being crafty, but never imagined I could be lucky enough to do it for a living until I started Designs by Romi in 2005 after getting hooked on lace knitting. Things grew from there, and these days I'm teaching and designing knitwear - especially shawls! - as well. I owe the internet knitting community a debt of gratitude for making it possible for me to fondle yarn, fiber and beads incessantly, and not feel guilty about it!

I can't believe it's 6 years already... it sure feels like yesterday. We will never forget.
It was truly the day the earth stood still. Assumptions shattered, but a new togetherness was found as well. Never forget, lest it happen again.
yes, I feel as I did the moment i saw it on tv...such...disbelief......
My sister-in-law was teaching in NJ, and there were dozens of parents at her high school who worked in the towers. My brother was on the subway in Manhattan (he was one of the lucky ones. His was late.)
...And I did not know nor see till I was very nearly finished that the afghan I was making them for Christmas that I'd started a few days later, in a 7x2 rib, very very plain and very simple because that's just plain all I could handle in the immediate aftermath...
...was a visualization in knitting of those towers.
Thank you for your post. Thank you for not forgetting.
