…the sun is shining, the sky is blue, I got 10 hours of sleep last night and new stuff to blog about. Having only had 3 hours of sleep Monday night, it should come as no surprise that I was dog tired yesterday. I would have gone to sleep right after putting the monkeys down at 8 had I not gotten something exciting that I had to check it out. I’m glad I did. A couple of weeks ago, Margene had a contest where entrants left a comment as to why they either liked or disliked stockinette. While I might currently be entranced by cables, I am a stockinette avenger. At the close, she was going to randomly draw a name and I WON! Woo. The very generous prizes arrived in yesterday’s mail:
A gorgeous skein of Mountains Colors Bearfoot in the Raspberry colorway (perfect colors!), a very cute sheep tape measure (been wanting one of those) and the coup de grace, Nancy Bush’s new sock book! Autographed! Margene had it personalized for me. What a super cool prize package. Thank you again Margene! After a mandatory perusal of the book, along with mental notes that further added to my must knit list, I called it an early night.
Good thing too… tonight I have something else to play with..
Suzie is out for delivery! I love online tracking. I forget what we used to do before this. I made sure to tack a note to my door authorizing Mr. UPSman to leave the package. This way I avoid that whole yellow sticky note on door disappointment. I’ll do the wheel assembly after the twins are in bed and then give her a test run. Yay.
Craft on!
