From the bottom of my heart.
I really don’t get that phrase.
So, Veronica and I did the drawing today. While I’m aware that some bloggers are uber-technical and can do random generated things on their computer, we’re into good old fashioned paper around here.
And the results are as follows-
1. Carol
2. Stephanie
3. Jen
4. Danielle
Congratulations! You may choose your prize in order of how you were drawn.
The options are-
-2 skeins of Koigu from my stash.
I can provide color descriptions and additional pictures if necessary.
– a beautiful collection of handmade soaps from Stephanie.
They are lavender, patchouli, a citrus patchouli, lemon (it’s fantastic), and the fifth has something in it making it an excellent wool wash. Plus, it smells really good. But I don’t remember what it is.
-a 4 oz skein of hand-dyed Blue Faced Leicester (pronounced Lester) yarn from Nada.
-a free pattern of your choice from Pamela.
Carol, you’re first.
Yesterday was busy. They wanted to do it all, and I wasn’t organized enough to protest, plus we were forced to stay indoors and anti-social because of poor Clark’s many illnesses.
So, Abby read a story.
Liv started to learn to spin
Veronica sewed placemats (I really need to blog about those. They’ve been ongoing for a few weeks, and are so cool!).
and Abby knit
And Abby tried spinning. And Liv knit, too. And I think they all sewed some placemats. And Clark was sick and grumpy. And the kitchen was a mess.
So I was running back and forth like a mad woman, trying to be everywhere and do everything and help everyone.
I’m not going to do that again. At least not all at the same time.
So Hayden came over last night and then I sat and knit on the Uptown Boot Socks for awhile. (Oh, and Hayden, I won). They’re nearly done, and I like them mucho. I think I’m going to pick out another suitable yarn and knit them again.

YAY for the drawing; congratulations to the four of you!
Also, we were not competing Laura, remember? I distinctly said that I was not (and not because I knew I couldn’t win, no sireebob). =)
Mad woman you might have been, the girls looked like they had fun, and they were very proud of what they’d accomplished that day.

Well…gosh…since the koigu’s been chosen (like DUH!!) I’ll take the BFL sock yarn please :o) Woohoo!!
The wool wash soap has lanolin in it :o) Plus it’s scented with eucaluptus, rosemary, and cedarwood essential oils ;o)
And Laura, Thanks again for hosting the mitts for mary. It was a lot of fun and I’m so glad she got such a great collection of mitts. I’m very envious of all her choices!

What fun! Although I got tired just reading about all your running around plus a sick kidnick. What a wonderful mom you are! By the way I’m ruminating on Fall style Mitts for Mary…
