I can’t even read the whole thing. It makes me a little sick to read “my father beat my mom and I thought she deserved it!” over and over...

God, I hope so

Yes, they do. They should be the new “thanks, Obama”

I know she will. I definitely consider you an accomplished knitter.

I specifically addressed that. Like, that was literally the whole point of the post I just made...

Another blanket in the same color, too?
