Even so, I wanted to say that I love the delicato mitt. It is very lacey and delicate. Also, the socks and cardi are looking good! I need to set myself a schedule too or I’ll never get anything done.

Those mitts really are lovely and delicate looking.

I’m trying to decide on a yarn for the minimalist cardi. I would like to pick out something new, soft, and fabulous, but I SHOULD just go with some Casacade 220 from the stash. Decisions, decisions…

And I love the colors in the sock yarn as well. I like your reasoning for allowing the pooling too. :)

I think your contest should involve finding out how many people can stand on their head and knit. ;) Ok… actually, I’m just not very original, so I don’t think I can help you on this one.

It can be any knitted sweater or purse or socks or shawl or whatever they have been not only happy with the result but they really wear or use it. Too many of us don’t utilize what we knit- I ‘d love to hear success stories,

Something like, worst thing that ever happened to you while knitting a sock? Or, strangest place you ever knit a sock? Or, who has the most sock yarn in their stash? Something like that.

Congrats on nearing the blogiversary. And thanks for a good contest (or three). :)

For a PBCC, how about having people guess the strangest place that you’ve stashed (aka hidden) yarn in your house (or elsewhere)?

Or a story about a knit item after it’s been gifted?

The delicato mitt is great! (Since I’m working back in comments, I think that these might be easier for typing in the cold office.)
