We have TWO winners!

G'day all!

We have two winners for my birthday contest! TWO!

Alison and Jess!

What are the prizes?
A baggie of 5 or 6 stitchmarkers (let me know if you prefer gold or silver and aso if you despise any colours) and
100g of yarn (most likely sock yarn cos that is what I have most of unless you like handspun!) OR 400g (most of a pound) of unwashed wool OR 200g (nearly half a pound) of washed wool.

Ladies, I am stupid enough to have not taken pics of the possible prizes so I have stolen links to those taken by others:
STR Bella Coola, a blues and greens mix (2007 Rockin Sock club colour) in medium weight
STR Dragon Dance flaming reds, rust, salmon (2008 Rockin Sock club colour) in lightweight (shows the club pattern too)
Colinette Jitterbug in Popsicle. Note it is a lot more green than turquoise...but a very happy skein of colours I'd describe as tropical bird shades.

The fleece? Well you can choose from my Rhinebeck extravaganza or from fleece I bought at Taos last year. I was going to link you to that blog page but alas DH's server disappeared on the weekend and it used to host all my pics so there are no pics shown on the page, so instead look here at the Bond fleece and here at the CVM fleece (now all washed). (and pics now on flickr...which seems to be more reliable, *crosses fingers*)

So, Alison and Jess, let me know what you would like!

In other matters, it is Eye Candy Monday. I leave you with a little of what you fancy

Either hand-dyed yarn:

    Whoo hoo hoo! I never win everything (apart from an action man (GI Joe equivalent) that I won when I was about 8. So thank you! Anyway I'm not much of a spinner so sock wool would be great - surprise me!

Your monthly blog post

LOL G'day all! Apparently I can no longer blog more than once a month. Mea slacka, I admit. So what's been happening here? I've done a lot of knitting recently.  Ahem I may have bought a fair whack of yarn too.  So much for not spending money. I've been sick as a dog this week.  Gah.  I haven't been really ill with a virus for years - last time I was this sick was six years ago.  Man that was a fun month, DH having lost his job whilst we were getting new visas in Oz for said job, having to pack up and move everything we wanted to keep from the States, sell off the car, get rid of stuff.... all with me coughing my lungs up.  And the lymph node that came up that I thought was from a chest infection actually being breast cancer...  oh joy oh bliss. I even went to urgent care (the walk in, no appointment needed doc in a box that you see when your GP is booked out) cos I felt so crappy.   He confirmed it was probably viral and threw ...

Seattle Six

Image
G'day all! 12 is a big number around here, being all to do with Seattle Seahawks and the 12th man - did you know that American football has 11 players active on the ground at any one time and the twelfth man is the spectators watching the game?  I didn't.  I know about the 12th man in cricket but not this thing that has been adopted here regarding what I usually call gridiron. But I don't want to talk about American football and I don't want to talk about 12, I want to talk about six. Yes, we have now been in Seattle for six years (and a number of days). Six years. Where has the time gone? This is our seventh winter - how have we managed?  Some people love gloom but we are solar powered.  And Seattle tends to be rather gloomy in winter.  I manage by making stuff like crazy, I wear bright colours, and I hang out online on Ravelry.  Without my rav mates, I'd be bored out of my brain.  I'd get a job but I don't have a work permit and that me...

A year and a day

Image
G'day all! This time last year, we were bemused and confused. Our grand trip across Canada had ended and we had just flown in to SJ airport. We have been in California for a year and a day (it's a leap year). 366 days in California. How has it been? All over the shop like a madwoman's you-know-what! You can read more about it on my other blog. I have now lived in three different places in my life. By that I mean I've had an address for mail and stuff, a place where I live rather than stay for a little while. Those places are Melbourne (Oz), Fort Collins (Colo) and Campbell (Calif). In their own ways, each has been special. Fort Collins will be a place I'll always remember, and possibly the memories will be better because we didn't spend a winter there ;-) In honour of this great occasion, I announce a contest! In the comments, tell me two places you have lived (one place if you have always lived there!) and a place where you would love to live (and why yo...
