Enough?



The above headband is 13 inches long. I want it to be 20 inches.
See the yarn? That's all I have in that color. Do I have enough?

Sounds like a contest to me!

In your comment, please:
Yes or No -- do I have enough?
If no, at what inch will I need to switch to another color?
(Yes, you can use tenths of inches.)

Winner will be randomly selected if two or more guess the correct answer.

And the prize?

Hmmmm. . . to be determined. But it'll be a skein of yarn that would make a nice headband--and there'll be enough of it!

A better photo of how much yarn is left:



I'm taking my sweet time knitting this, so contest will be closing on Thursday, January 22.

C is also for. . . .

CONTEST and COMMENTS in CELEBRATION of SnitnKnit's first blogiversary today!

Yeah, I know. . . not much snitting, knitting or blogging has been happening around here. But, this blogiversary has made me think about how much I really do love connecting with all of you. I've made a few cyber-friends, discovered some wonderful blogs and have been inspired by so many of you.

So, in the spirit of blogging and connecting -- here's the contest:

Please leave a comment (Yes, even you lurkers out there!) with a link to a knitting blog that you enjoy and may be overlooked. Add a line or two about why you like that blog. You can even submit yourself and leave your own blog as the link.

Prizes?

Since I'm going into the 2nd year of blogging, there will be prizes for two people. Leave a comment on this blog posting by noon (eastern time) Friday, February 15 and your name will be placed into a Go-Knit pouch for the random drawing. Make sure you have a way I can reach you (via email address, blog, Knitters Review name or Ravelry name.)

What about the prizes?

You keep asking about the prizes. . . alright already--

One prize will be yarn:



Cascade 220 in my favorite shade of rosy red. 440 yards--big enough for a medium sized scarf

and the other prize will be yarn also:



Shi Bui sock yarn in a gorgeous shade of blue. 382 yards.

Let the contest commence!
