About those comments

Having received verbal comments about how folks couldn't comment, I thought I'd check things out. To leave a comment, you'll need to click on the link that notes how many comments are made. A pop up window will appear and you can write your comment. After doing that, scroll down and select how you would like your comment credited (your identity)--either anonymous or you can enter your email address to have your name attached. . .for those protecting privacy, you could include your name in the post, and post it by anon. . .does that make sense? Anyway, after choosing your identity you will need to click on publish. Once that happens, a comment should appear.

Will you all please try this out and help me ensure that it's working?

I'll take pictures of my "January socks" and post them later this week and since I've started my February socks already, I may get a picture of one of those already. . .For those of you who don't know, my New Year's resolution is to make a pair of socks each month this year. I'll update you in between grading final exams this week!

This is now the third time that I have tried to post a comment, (the first two tries being unsuccessful)I seem to somehow keep losing all of the wonderful things that I have said. Relegating them to forever more be a part of the wild blue yonder. Anyway, as verbally stated, please keep posting photos of the restarted philosophers and the monthly socks, they are a great encouragement to those of us who seem to be forever stuck in the mundane of the never ending scarfs.

Yes, but your scarves are a true benefit to others, my socks and sweater just benefit me. . .so here's a question for you all, if I finish the February socks in January, are they February socks? Or would that be cheating? And if so, would it really be cheating if I do everything except close the toe of the February sock until Feb 1? I'm just sayin'. . .

Janurary Meeting and Announcements

New Meeting Location! effective immediately for our Tuesday Jan 8, 2007 Meeting I feel like we've been in a sweat lodge for the last few months meeting at the Community Center. . .in response to all of the hot flashes and personal fans brought to the meetings, we've chosen a new (and cooler)location. Meetings will now be held at: Fifth Third Bank 1833 Coolidge Berkley, MI 48072 The bank is located on Coolidge near 11 mile. . .on the West side of the road. Great, well lit parking, comfy chairs and no jazzercise music playing during the meeting! The meeting agenda will include learning a new cast on and bind off--bring worsted weight yarn in two colors, and needles to match, as well as info about Knit Michigan (see Judith's post below), our upcoming Retreat at Hankered Inn (you may want to bring your checkbook so you can leave a deposit to reserve your space as they are limited). The retreat is planned for the weekend of April 25-27, check your calendars and save the date...

BSKG 1st Guest Post

Posted by Kim Whelan "copyright Geneve Hoffman Photography" I have this friend; maybe you have one like her? She’s the kind of friend that has all these crazy, great ideas, and somehow, before you know it, you’re smack dab in the middle of something! This friend is the reason that I found myself starting a knitting guild (BSKG) with her a few years ago and found myself president of said guild a few years later. She is also the reason that I started designing patterns. I was just drifting along, calmly knitting away when she said “write a pattern, challenge yourself” That is how I came to write my very first pattern “Etta” which appeared in Lace One Skein Wonders . Now writing a pattern didn’t come easy, there were many mistakes along the way, but I stuck with it and finally I had a pattern I was proud to publish on Ravelry. After that first pattern I wrote a few more that I was lucky enough to have printed in some local publications. But that friend of mine, ...

"Speed Knitting"

Ever seen anyone knit so fast they needed a helmet to protect themselves? Or maybe, the helmet is to protect themselves from the head bashing you do when you've made a REALLY big mistake and need to frog. . . A skein of sock yarn is waiting for the person with the most witty (in my opinion) caption for this pix. Make a comment and I'll choose the winner next Thursday when I come home from the UP. Thanks to Coralee for the picture! (oh how I wonder what sort of crazy pictures of me she may have stored on her camera. . .)
