Swap Details

(just another baby beret....using leftovers)

I think we have 8 participants for a swap. If you still want to play send me an email: harpnut@gmail.com with your name, address, and blog site. If you said you want to swap and changed your mind, now is your chance to get out. I recently lost all my contacts, so even if you think I have your address, please send it to me again. Sign ups close as of Sunday night.

Since it is 2012, I am challenging all the swapper to limit their yarn purchase in the swap to $20.12. Please send your partner new yarn. 2012 is the year of the Dragon. Monday the 23rd of January will be the deadline to mail your package to your swap partner. This is quick, I know, but lets do it and mean it. Let's not have it drag on....pun intended.

I'll be sending out the questionnaire after I have all the participants. There will be a dragon theme.......

YOu'll be asked to send you partner some new sock yarn, a pattern related to the theme, and something for our hands or feet which are scaly as dragons this time of year....

Just 3 things.

So are you in?

One of my first socks blew a heel this morning - my first in six years, so it's time for some new socks.

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
