Although I could never really keep up all the acronyms of Microsoft's, ahem, cliques, I'm in full agreement with their re-definition of multitasking as 'Continuous Partial Attention'. It may be that knitting on camera can give you the cosy look of a sage granny, but I think you really need to be a little old lady who is simultaneously smoking a pipe to pull the look off with conviction.

I'd like to try weaving during long Teams meetings, but worry that the shuttle will keep knocking the camera aside with every weft through the warp, and give the game away.

Dear Bex - Your comments are duly noted and have entered the minutes of our last meeting at Knit Your Heart Out magazine in Des Moines IA. As previously stated, I am the Editor in Chief and would be happy to extend a free 6 month subscription to you and yours. In the meantime, I would like to draw your attention to a wonderful ode to the knitting needle available on Spotify called Dueling Needles - The Pure Sound of Thoughts Unspoken (with thanks to Phillip Glass). by the world's leading cable knit master, Eric Barnaby Gottenberg. As Eric once said to me at the Knitters' Guild Convention in Twitsberg PA: "Never let anyone harsh your double drop overtwist"

Sincerely, Doris Sneed.
