Anniversary - Whaddya know!
Despite what it says over there under Monthly Archives, I have been blogging since October of 2003 - 6 years! I can’t quite believe it. I honestly thought I’d get bored with it after a year or so and I grant you, I haven’t always been the most diligent poster in the world :) But, I hadn’t counted on meeting all you exceptional folks and making such dear friends along the way. You all have immeasurably enriched my life and for that, I am profoundly grateful.
Therefore, it seems a little recognition is called for!
I would like to offer these two skeins of bulky wool. I dyed them yesterday and Myria whimsically dubbed the color Emma’s Teal. The specs (per each) are:
Content: 100% Peruvian Highland Wool
Weight: Bulky Weight
Gauge: 3 - 3.75 sts = 1” on #10 - 11 needles (6.0mm-8.0mm)
Quantity: 137 yards/100 gram hank
Care: Hand Wash/Dry Flat
I am also including a pair of old-style Brittany black walnut needles, size 10.5 US (6.5 mm). These are 14” long so they’ll handle quite a few stitches and they’re the perfect size with which to work this yarn.
All you have to do is leave a comment to this post and I will randomly select a name next Thursday morning (November 5th) and post the winner.
Thank-you all for your kindness, friendship and support over the last six years. Let’s hope for another six!
