Re: Missy Yarn Braclets
Thu, October 19, 2006 - 5:45 PMI have mine on our night light in the bathroom, next to the Bindes she use to stick on my mirror. I was thinking of putting it on and wearing it to Hawaii so she'd be there with us.

Re: Missy Yarn Braclets
Fri, October 20, 2006 - 6:51 AMMine came off long ago. It got really thin in a section and came off one day. Don't even know where it went.
I know Shawn still has his on. We were just wondering not too long ago who else still had theirs on. Glad to see there are still a few hanging on :-) -

Re: Missy Yarn Braclets
Fri, October 20, 2006 - 10:27 AMMine has gotten extremely "threadbare" and I am always afraid to wear it because I know eventually it will break and I will lose it. I still wear it sometimes though when I am feeling down. It gives me a reminder every time I look at it that Missy is with me and I can be strong. Last time I wore it was at a Butter show and I just needed to have it on. I thought, well, if it breaks and goes missing while I am dancing wildly on the rail, Missy would be pretty pleased with that. I would like to incorporate it into another piece of jewelry so I can wear it without fear of losing it.
Thanks Jen!! Whoever thought a piece of yarn would be so special. -

Re: Missy Yarn Braclets
Fri, October 20, 2006 - 11:05 AMI took mine off for "safe keeping" but darned if I can find it. I guess that makes it all the more safe...? I'll have to look around home this weekend. Would love to find it and wear it in Hawaii (and maybe in Florida while I'm missing the Urban Melt).
Thanks Jen! Miss you, sweetie!

Re: Missy Yarn Braclets
Fri, October 20, 2006 - 12:37 PMMine is next to my bed, in a dish full of amythest and other assorted stones that belonged to a woman I dated in college, who passed away prematurely, like Missy.
Some of you Chico folks may remember Megan Hudzic? I bet they are friends now;) -

Re: Missy Yarn Braclets
Sat, October 21, 2006 - 10:28 AMI am so glad so many of you held on to your bracelets... there was a pont in time where, selfishly, I wished I had held on to the leftover and knitted myself a scarf of it but knowing that all of you have valued that simple little bracelet as much as me means the world! I love you all! -

Re: Missy Yarn Braclets
Wed, August 22, 2007 - 11:13 PMMIne snagged last night and broke off. It was on for a little over a year and a half... kind of a trip. I'm glad it came off as it did because I still have it... I always worried it'd come off swimming or something and I'd loose it... but no its not going anywhere... pretty fitting as she is always beside me in spirit. -

Re: Missy Yarn Braclets

Re: Missy Yarn Braclets
Mon, August 27, 2007 - 7:33 AMMine finally got to the point where it needed to come off before it fell off. 1-1/2 years I wore it. It is now with the foot long braid I got cut off in Akumal 9 years ago.
That was such a great thing to do Jen.
hugs to all... -

Mon, August 27, 2007 - 10:32 PMThanks Shawn... I'm glad it was meaningful... it sure made letting go and little easier for me.
Much Love.
