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!

No. Caffeine.
Poor. Baby.
Better. Soon!
Now that you mention it, they have me on the list till June .....hopefully nothing will happen and they won't call me.
I've been called twice a year for the past eight years. I've always had a legitimate excuse. I'd love to be seated on a jury, but I'm a lawyer, so it would probably never happen anyway.
One word:
bummer
Will you be able to bring your knitting????
Can you bring your knitting?
My sympathies...
Okay that is NOT good. I'm on call for it this week, but haven't had to go in yet.
Crochet. Crochet. Crochet.
We are in different states, but when I had JD the paper said the same thing - no knitting needles - and yet teh first day someone was there knitting. I took my needles with me the second day - no problem. When you are selected for a jury, they will have a separate room for you to keep personal items locked away. I say - go for it!
Luckily, I got excused today! Thank goodness because I'd hate to sit on a jury while in my third trimester. And I've heard it's no knitting needles or crochet hooks in any court house. Seems a bit odd, really. How much more damage can you do with a plastic needle than you can with a mechanical pencil?
Oh damn!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...I guess I won't be calling you tonight to sneak you out for a knit session. DANG!!!
No Knitting? Cruel and unusual punishment.
NO KNITTING NEEDLES?!
They'd need to seat another jury for what would happen if they tried to take mine away.
