So much for posting monthly...

Haha! I don't know why I thought I would. The past several months have been busy for me. My husband, daughter and I have moved into our new "old" Woodinville home and we love it! Marc, my husband, went to the East coast for a few months to work. The job wasn't all it was supposed to be, so we decided that he needed to come back. I hope that over the next 12 months we can finish up our home and get the storage all emptied and organized. Maybe become normal folks that have a home they can invite friends into!

Since, we are in our new home, I haven't been able to work on my jewelry. All of my supplies and tools are stored in boxes and I don't have a room for my crafts yet. It was really frustrating to not be able to have a craft avenue for my creativity, so I pulled out my yarn and started knitting again. I've been knitting since September or so, full speed, and I really am loving it. I knit almost every evening, in bed, while watching TV at the end of my day. I'm also quite addicted to Ravelry!

With that being said, I have decided that I would like to start a new blog (and maybe a podcast) for free yarn giveaways. I know it sounds a little crazy, but I would like to give a skein or more of yarn away every other week to a deserving knitter. My fantasy is that I could grow this blog from once every other week to maybe weekly giveaways and possibly have a really large monthly giveaway. There are a lot of blogs/podcasts out there that do giveaways along side their regular rantings about knitting, but I would like this blog to really be dedicated to giving away yarn and knitting related things for FREE!! I think it could be a useful avenue for fiber companies to get their products into the hands of new customers and who doesn't like free stuff?! Over the next couple of months, I want to really develop this idea and see how financially I could make this all work.

Til next time! Cau.
