Excited

Category : Fiber Arts

Ok, now that I have wrestled back control of my blog from Mr. K, I can get back to the business at hand.

Freaking OutI was wondering if there were any knitters out there that are as excited about October 5th as I am? I am so excited I can hardly stand it.

The Secret of the Stole KAL membership closes at midnight (-6 GMT) tomorrow and the first hint is released October 5th. In case you don’t know what on earth I am talking about, although I am not sure how that is possible, I suppose I should post one last announcement. If you or someone you know hasn’t joined up yet, time is of the essence. Here are the details:

Secret of the Stole KALThis is a group for the new Secret of the Stole KAL (knit a long) that is beginning October 5, 2007. Along with knitting a stole, several lucky members will receive prizes along the way. This will be a fun group to learn some new techniques, meet some new knitting friends, and have a great time knitting. Membership will be closing for this group on October 4, 2007.

The stole is a combination of lace and beads and the pattern is by Nautical Knitter. Those who complete the Secret of the Stole KAL will have a beautiful stole to wear for New Year’s Eve festivities

I am! I am! I keep wanting to mess with my gauge swap just to play with my yarn and beads more…lol. I am very much counting down to the first whisper of the secret :)

Yes, I am ready to go! I can’t wait! I am trying to finish up a few items so that I can devote my attention (once the kiddos go to bed) to my stole! So, come on Oct 5th!!!!

I am SO ready! I can hardly wait for the first clue!

I’ve got my yarn and beads by me computer so I can admire it.

This is going to be great! Only one more day!
(Then I can finally decide which color I want!)

YAY!!!! Only one more day! I can’t wait!!!!!

I tell you what…if this day could go any slower…I may just grow 20 years older!! UGH…come on October 5th! I am rearing to go!

WOOO! HOOOO! I am so glad you posted the first clue early, we are leaving for the beach (no internet access) and I was afraid I would have to wait for the first clue until we got back! Thanks again for hosting such a great project. Now I am off to cast on, I just wanted to drop you a line of thanks first.

I am so glad to have posted the first hint posted and to see everyone’s reactions to it. Enjoy
