I got prizes!
I won a couple of contests recently and today two prizes arrived in the mail!
The first is from Cookie's contest to write a knitting post with as many "polysyllabic or obscure words" as possible. Mine wasn't that impressive, but I was the random winner. Thank you luck of the draw!
Jaeger Matchmaker and Rainbow Wools
And the second I won in Becky's moving contest - Jojoland Melody! She also included some yummy dark chocolate kisses. :)
Many thanks to both Becky and Cookie for the fabulous prizes. I'm especially excited about the two new sock yarns (of course!) Someday I'll have my very own blog contest - probably for some monumental # post.
Progress on the Rhinebeck sweater is good. Today at knitting group I started the sleeves since the whole sweater is now too big to tote around. However, there's not much knitting left on the body so soon it will just be the sleeves. Then when the sleeves are done you have to attach all the pieces and knit the yoke. Not too bad, and over a week to go!

Way to go on your sweater progress. How do you manage to win so many contests? I'm jealous, and I need some free yarn!
Great looking wool you scored. I bet you can't wait to start knitting it up. I'm also jealous of your contest wins :)
the yarn in the second pic calls out to me. what is it? i have not been awake long enough this moring to try and find out on my own
Fun prizes!
Yay for winning contests!
And how cool to go see Shannon Oakley with Rose!
Good luck on the Rhinebeck sweater!
Wow, TWO contests?! Congrats! Glad the yarn made it there intact and all. And damn, pardon the price tags. How tacky of me!
