However I am in full anticipation mode. I'm excited. I'm ready to stay-cate. (stay-knitcation?).
And to celebrate, I've got a nice new copy of Knitdcene's fantastic 2013 Accessory Issue ($15 retail) and a set of nice Knitifacts ringlet stitch markers I'd like to give away. Nothing fancy just a little token of happiness.
Just leave a comment with either an email address or Ravelry handle or with some way to contact you by end of the long weekend, Monday September 2nd on THIS post. I will use either the online random number generator or make my kid pick a number out of a hat, (we're fancy like that.) and we'll have a winner posted on Tuesday the 3rd.
If you feel like telling us what you plan on doing with the long weekend; work, hula-hoop, try earth worm crudo, whatever, that's great, that's a bonus. If you want to tell me that I'm a bit bonkers, that's okay, too, just do it politely.
My mom and dad are coming to visit and we'll be watching college football on Saturday! yea! My mom's 70th birthday is Monday, so I assume I'm spending as much of my free time between now and then finishing her birthday present (which I guess won't be a total surprise, but hey...)
ReplyDeleteMy Ravelry handle is lesliestbutler. Hope to win! ;)

Oh how nice of you! I have just recently been looking at Knitscene,for whatever reason it was not on my radar before.
ReplyDeleteAs for this weekend, I'm going to finish the last details on a room we've fixed up in our house, and then knit and read the rest of the time.
Hope your Labor Day weekend is enjoyable!
Since I have a new job where I am not required to work holidays, I'm going to be home being lazy.
ReplyDeleteLovely :) I am planning a car ride with knitting, relaxing with knitting and reading (not knitting during that!)
ReplyDeleteBless your happy generoisity!
ReplyDeleteSloth and possibly gluttony are the big contenders in our three day holiday!
I'm going to be moving, alas >.< But I hope to also finish and block my first shawl!
ReplyDeleteAren't you the sweet one. I'll be dog sitting a 3 month old maltese mixed puppy, starting tonight (Thursday), so you can imagine how my weekend will be. I'll get some knitting in, not sure what I'll be knitting; I do know that I have to knit my 3rd baby blanket sometime soon. Haven't pick the yarn yet. So aside from potty training, going outdoors every couple of hours, I plan on chillin.
ReplyDeleteOh! Fun! I'd love to win!
