Pondering......

Has anyone entered anything in a county fair before? I'd just like to be able to say that I did it once ~ don't care if I win a darn thing. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with exhibiting and can ease my mind about getting my scarf back when the fair is over with. I'd hate to have it disappear after all the hard work, you know what I'm saying? If I do it, I may enter 2 things (what the heck!) since I have one other knit I'm really proud of this year other than this kal.

I'd love to hear if anybody has any thoughts or tips! Or, if anyone is entering a fair this year, I'd love to hear about that, also!

hope everyone is having a great start to their summer ~ we had blue skies today and the eagles were enjoying the breeze while I was out on our deck......

Finally finished.......

and pleased as punch ;)

Finished .... is there anybody out there ;)

I have no idea if anyone is still working on their scarves that hasn't completed them yet but I finally (5 months after finishing the actual knitting) blocked mine today ~ it's still drying so no completely completed photos yet but here's my blocking pictures (& I am so glad I invested in the blocking wires ~ it is perfectly blocked and straight!!) Finished measurements are 14 1/2" x 75 1/2" ~ I'm very happy :)

Updates

How is progress going for everybody still knitting? I'd sure like to hear some news and see some pictures. Happy knitting!

friends far and wide....

just wanted to say I'm glad that you are all in my knitting circle ~ I've been surprised with some fun gifts from a few of you the last couple weeks and just wanted to share and say thanks so much for being a fun bunch of friends

from twisted I received these fun fun fun things for a little somethin' somethin' I did for her ~ the return far exceeded my favor but was greatly appreciated....thanks for being my BSA hookup!









and today from one of my retreat roomies I received a little handmade get well gift (you multi-talented girl, Lanne!) ~ I know a fellow roomie that will be jealous ~







wish I could figure out how to post this underneath Andrea's finished scarf post but I can't figure out how to do it ~ it needs to be at the top of the blog!
