boy do i have a lot to tell you; but first, i want to give away some yarn, leftover from knitting my swallowtail shawlette. this is Malabrigo Yarn Lace, in color #17 (Pink Frost). there is approximately 22.5 grams (211.5 yards); which is just under half the skein.
who wants to take this little ball of yarn home with them?
just leave me a comment (with your email address) by 5PM on Friday, April 17, 2009. i'll pick your names from a hat and contact the lucky knitter/reader.
the big news? — Adam and I bought a house. well, the sellers accepted our offer. we finished inspections. and we are now officially in escrow. i guess that doesn't mean we're homeowners yet; but, it's been an exciting week.
i'll be back soon with some actual news about finished projects: 2 more shawlettes, 2 tiny shoes, and a belt; so until then, happy knitting!

You guys put an offer on a house? That's awesome! :) Oh now we really do have to get together for some knitting/needlework some time soon - I can't wait to hear about it. Congratulations!

Congrats on the (almost) new house!
Plus, I'd LOVE to be in the drawing for the yarn!

Many Congrats on the house! Maybe you can create a mini theater area so that you can truly enjoy some Next Generation fun times in surround sound without you neighbors hearing all the phaser fire!
P.S. The pink yarn would make something super cute for my wee baby girl who is due any day now.

Great news on the house. It's such an exciting (and nervewrecking) time. I remember it well.
I'd love to toss my name in the hat for the Mmmmmalibrigo yarn. I'm a newer knitter who has not used lace weight yet.
