    Please note: I added a brush and added many more colors to the palette for this year - hopefully that will aid in adding some more variety for your knitting.

    While not my team, I can't help but feel happy for the 49ers to finally come out of their years long hole this season and for Garoppolo to finally be able to show his worth after last year's unfortunate injury and after the Patriots threw him away as a Brady successor. So definitely a +1!
