Love is a many splendoured thing!

I am in love, yes I am!

When I first saw Pearl, sparks flew. I knew she had to be mine, I knew we would be perfect for each other (well, to be absolutely honest, there are some nagging doubts about her shape, I'm not entirely sure she's the right shape for me, but like any good lover with stars in her eyes, I've pushed my doubts aside. Pearl is not a gold digger, Pearl will stand by me through thick and thin. If only I can get her to be mine.
I got her picture first, and treasured it and looked at it every so often, when I needed a lift. I made sure I had the right yarn for the love spell to work most effectively, buying it just after I found out it was discontinued. I even tested the yarn to make sure it would be right. Twice, that's how dedicated I was to my pursuit of Pearl.
And now I've started making the love spell, and I can feel it working already. I love my Pearl, oh yes I do!
