Survey Says

A lot of times when I ask for feed back it seems like I don't really get much of a response.  Well, not as much as if I post a pretty picture anyway.  This time, I really would like you to take just a moment or two and give me a little bit of feed back, I really want to hear your opinions!

For everyone:

What do you like to see the most here on my blog?  Is it pictures of finished items and new shop stock or posts of pretty things I drool over or posts about food and cooking?  Or something else entirely?

What would you like to see more of?

What kinds of posts do you only skim (its ok, we all do it, lets just be honest here) and what types of posts really grab your attention and you read the whole thing?

Is there something you would like to see less of / get tired of seeing?

Can you ever have too many puppy pictures?  ;-P

When you look at knitwear in stores or at craft shows, what kinds of items do you find the most tempting?

For the Knitters:

What size needles do you use the most often?  Or what range of sizes do you tend to knit in the most?

Have you ever tried one of my free patterns?  If so, would you send me a picture of the FO?

Would you like to see more free patterns or more focus back on knitting?  Yarn reviews, book reviews, etc?

For those who take the time to give a little feedback, thank you!!  If you have more to say than you would like to leave in a comment, feel free to e-mail me at Somerknits (at) aim (dot) com.  Have a great rest of the day!

One can NEVER have too many posts about puppies! ;) I like posts about what you did over the weekend, what you've made and the pictures from your past! When shopping for knitwear, I like infinity scarves :)

GIVEAWAY!!!

As many of you know, I love working with hand dyed yarn.  I especially love Farm Girl Fiber yarn!  Bridgette has an eye for color and has a lot of fun with what she does.  That is why I am so super thrilled that Farm Girl Fiber is sponsoring this giveaway in honor of my opening an etsy shop!   Before the goods, a recap:  I made this Acorn Head hooded cowl for myself on Christmas this year.  I've known pretty much since I bought the yarn exactly what it was going to be, I just had to find time to do it.  This cowl was out of my FGF birthday yarn!  You can't tell in the picture, but it has just this hind of sparkle to it.  Love! I made 2 of these for two different swaps and I really wish I had made and kept one for myself while she still had the yarn!  It was so super soft and super bulky and fantastic!  Sometimes Farm Girl Fiber has very limited lots of things, so if you find something you love, you really need to snatch it up. ...

Ridiculously Easy 3x3 hat

So I was on my way out the door to the St. Louis Cardinals game a couple nights ago when I realized I didn't have any purse size knitting on hand. I grabbed a ball of bernat chunky and a pair of size 10 16" circs out of my travel bag and stuffed them into my purse to contemplate at the game. I wanted something so super easy that by the time the game started I wouldn't have to think about it. I feel almost silly sharing this pattern, but I figured why not. So here is the hat: I don't really intend to turn up the edge to make a brim, but my model had trouble keeping it on otherwise. Its really stretchy and should fit almost any adult head. Its long enough to cover your ears, so if you really want a brim, go ahead and flip up the edge. Ok, here goes the pattern: Ridiculously Easy 3x3 Hat Yarn: I used Bernat Chunky Needles: Size 10 16" Circs or preferred method of knitting in the round CO 60 stitches and join for knitting in the round. Work in 3x3 rib for 7 inche...

Production Day & Giveaway!

There is less than a week until the Arkansas Fiber Arts Extravaganza. Even though my stitch markers didn't move well at Indie Emporium, I have high hopes for them this coming weekend. This audience will be completely different, for starters. This time it is a fiber specific event and the people who are coming should actually know what they are! Despite not being very down in inventory, I decided to have a production day to add variety to my stock. It started out as me thinking, oh I'll just make a few today while I have some time. Then I got going and decided I was having fun, so why not have some Chai and make some more. Riley helped by pushing me off the sofa more than once. Ripley did too, but I didn't catch a picture of him doing it. By mid afternoon I had opened new beads, fixed myself a tray of grapes and cheese, finished off the chai and was grooving at a pretty good pace. By the time I needed to get up and get going for my evening plans I had made 15 new sets,...
