Oh you temptress! I had to sign up!!!
I was tempted, but the thought of knitting to a deadline for someone else terrifies me too much :) I shall watch your progress with interest though.
Tempted - but while I love deadline ("I love the whooshing sound they make as they go flying past") I have too many deadlines at present. I'm waiting for my ravelry invite too.
Aw this is one of those things i'd like to have a go at but i'm too chicken lol
I can't remember what the hell I have said YES to as it is.
I might join in as a tribute to me ;) and make a pair of monkeys (see if they fit ) and may pass them on lol
Oh my another sock swap! That sounds like fun, but I think my needles are full with the HSS2, maybe next time!
Not to be bothersome but I was wondering if you accepted my design contest entry?! Its called Not Another Weasley Hat. You can find it on my blog,
naturallyknitty.blogspot.com
Sorry if i'm being anoying, I was just really excited about it and haven't heard from you about it. The e-mail link you have on the post wouldn't work for me, it bounced back.
I guess I really DO need to make a pair of these huh???
