Funny 'problem' with yarn name
I was emailing about the Risata yarn I just received (missing one skein) and when I hit send, it automatically does the spell check. Well of course the program doesn't recognize Risata. I just laughed out loud at the suggestions I got for it....'Satanism'. Hmmm, that's pretty close, Right??

I think your spell check is possessed.

I keep going to get it, thinking I could start with it...but I'm making myself wait. Besides, I already have something OTN, and I'm trying to NOT have several WIP if I can help it. Not easy...
