1500 + counting
Wow.
What I thought would take a month or so to complete is finished in 5 days. Crikey.
The speed with which the knitting community shares news would put any telecommunications company to shame!
Wow. (again)
And so the 1500th commenter is Tanya of turtleslakeknitting.blogspot.com. Many heartfelt congratulations for being a part of my milestone-for-no-reason in an ‘un’ sort of way! I’ll contact you via email to secure a postal address so I can get out the goodies straight away. I truly hope you enjoy this very Irish yarn! Yippee!
But hey, I’m not finished…
I have to confess that the spirit of this winter-blah-prevention went ever-so-slightly-wee-bit awry. My intention was not the mass accumulation of comments. Please don’t misunderstand…all are welcome! I guess, for me, it was more about community less about contest.
Right then, so to satisfy my own expectations, I decided to choose an additional pre-Tudora-pre-contest number…not so round, but meaningful nonetheless…
And will Commenter-Number-1127 (so chosen for my son’s birthdate), please step forward? Jackie of jikiknits.blogspot.com will be receiving this—
Crimson Kilcarra and Craftspun’s own brand of Homespun yarn…undyed creamy Blue Faced Leister.
Very happy knitting to you both!
Congrats to the winners! Congrats to you for your 1500!
