Yarn-Over, Ligature… Same Difference.
lig·a·ture [lig-uh-cher, -choor] noun. — Printing. a character or type combining two or more letters. (Yarn overs aren't all that different)

Blogiversary Contest!!!

About a year and a half ago, I decided I wanted to knit. It went badly, but I loved it, and decided to keep going. Last November, while scouring the web for free patterns, I discovered the wonderful online knitting community of blogs and forums. Everyone is so enthusiastic, and I wanted in on the fun. Last November I started my blog. It was around the same time I joined ravelry, and around the time when knitting took over my life.

In thanks to the love and support from all my readers and knitters everywhere, I'm hosting a contest for the month of November 2008. For every comment in November, I will put your name in a draw for a prize.

The Rules:
Comment on any posts in November (as many as you want).
Link back to my contest on your blog for an extra entry.

THE PRIZE!


Mirasol Yarn Hacho

I will probably add more to the package than just yarn, but the yarn itself is lovely to work with. Let the contest begin!

    Mmmm, Marisol Hacho; I love that stuff. Some followed me home from Coastal Yarns in Cannon Beach, OR. Have you knit with some? And what did you make? It's the perfect weight for sport/dk socks, which is as skinny as I'm willing to go!

    It was about this time last year that I learned to knit as well. It is so great to see such a large community of knitters on the internet.
