The First Of The Warshcloth Prizes


I haven't finished opening all of the boxes and bags and envelopes yet ... honestly, you people! Thank you so much!

But I thought seeing I said I would start picking names for prizes on December 1 and it must be almost that time by now, I should start.

I asked my Random Number Generator (my daughter) to pick a number between one and twenty-three. She said why, and I said because if she didn't I'd beat her with a stick.

After the giggling wore off (apparently I'm not that threatening) she chose eight.

And it would appear that Ann has just won herself a big fat skein of Rideau Arcott/Jacob/Alpaca dyed by me in the Anthem colourway. I think there's about 375 yards in there and it knits up at 7 st/in. Enough for a big pair of socks. (not that her feet are big)

I don't have a picture, alas, but it's navy blending into turquoise and then flashes of magenta. Very sedate. No, really.

Knit them in good health, cookie. And these are for you, none of that do-gooding giving away stuff, ok?

Isn't it sad when kids don't take us seriously? I roared at the girls the other day, and they just laughed. Isn't roaring supposed to be scary and threatening? I must've gotten it wrong somehow...

Congrats to Ann! Cool speech, Ann! ::applause::

(Um, whaddaya mean, wrong speech? Lessee, you produced and starred; Rabbitch directed; costars = needles and yarn. I don't see a problem here; am I missing something?? And by the bye, you keep wearing multiple hats like that, pretty soon you may be rivaling Paul Gross for multi-tasking!)

And yeah, we want pictures, you betchum. Please.
