Dear Older Daughter,

Wow! I can't believe I've been so selfish. Here I've been, happily knitting away, making loops for the Shaun the Sheep tea cozy, when I suddenly realized that you would love to learn how to do this. And as you know, I'll be visiting in June.

This sheep takes hundreds, hundreds of loops, and I've been selfishly keeping them all to myself! Well, no more of that. I'm bringing Shaun and all the supplies to Austin; I'll teach you how to make loops and you can have the FUN, FUN, I say, of making the hundreds of loops remaining.

I'm nothing if not generous.
