    Congratulation, my dear - from one long winded woman to another! ;O) Do not enter me - though the yarn is beautiful, really really beautiful, I am saving myself to buy a colorway more me - less like my personality, and more like the quiet, muted person I wish I were. But I'm here, and rooting for whoever wins, and amazed at the lovely work you continue, consistently, to do.

    Hello and congratulations on your 600th post! I came across your blog by a random internet search a few days ago. I love the patterns -they are fairly easy for a begineer like me to work on, but so attractive that I can totally see my soon to be a 4-year-old daughter playing with knitted creatures and flowers for hours! By the way, she goes to Waldorf School of Louisville, Kentucky in the U.S. Nice to meet you.
