Conductive Thread Tale

H spent a few minutes the other night sewing some conductive thread to her gloves. This is the conductive thread she bought from Knit Picks. After reading posts on Ravelry she decided they best way was to just sew little lines in a group. People on Ravelry said knitting with your yarn and the thread doesn’t work so she figured that duplicate stitch wouldn’t work either. The little lump of lines works great! H is looking forward to being able to read on her kindle on the subway without having to take her gloves off.

After H was finished with her gloves she tucked them into the pocket of her backpack taking care to zip the pocket. About 5 minutes later Myles was running wild through the living room with a glove in his mouth. He figured out how to open the zipper. Oh no! But that isn’t the end of the story. A few hours later we’d all gone to bed. The Husband asked me what Myles was chewing on. I turned on the light to find that Myles had unzipped the cover on his bed and was pulling chunks of fluff off the pad inside. Good Grief! Now we have to watch him every second instead of every minute.
