Also for the non-knitters: I followed a link to the blog of one of Franklin's new friends, and found the photo below, which I thought was too good not to share with other non-knitters (of course, the knitters have already seen it in its original location).
Anyway, I just can't get enough of this little story—I'm so glad Franklin had so much fun and made so many friends, or cemented the developing friendships or however he might say it. I dare to think I've seen him that happy once or twice, but I can't think when, and I don't think it lasted more than a few minutes...but now....well I hope it just continues on and on.
Oh, and the best news of all is that he will be illustrating a forthcoming knitting book by a famous and beloved knitting blogger! This is very exciting! It's so funny how this stuff unfolds...
I doubt Franklin ever thought something like this would come of his knitting and blogging! For those of you who haven't seen it, you should also check out his photography website, which is full of breathtaking pix and which, I imagine, would have been predicted to be a more likely source of fame, fortune, and universal adulation than his knitting cartoons! No doubt that too will happen.... but isn't life funny?
