There was a great response to the contest and many of you guessed correctly. The correct answer to what the Mystery Project really is..
And the winners of the contest are..
1st Place: Meredith
2nd Place: Jenny Raye
3rd Place: Carrie
All winners have been emailed. Thanks to everyone who entered. The winners were picked randomly from a raffle by my mother. This was so much fun, I think I might try to come up with other contests to hold some other time. I only wish I had enough yarn to give every participant.
As for the cardigan, I’m past the side shaping and I just need to finish knitting a few more inches to complete the body then I can move onto the sleeves. There was a disastrous moment when I realized that I didn’t buy enough yarn to complete the size I need for myself.
I needed about 200 more yards and Knit Picks didn’t have anymore of the dye lot that I had previously bought. I figure that I can use the other dye lot for the neckband, cuffs and the bottom hem though. The dye lots are close enough that it’s really hard for eye to see the difference. At least that’s what I’m hoping.
I’m also hoping the sun will come out for pictures tomorrow. It’s been hiding for the past couple of days and while I’ve been really lucky in where I live on the island, there have been unfortunate folks on the North Shore that have been experiencing flooding. It just goes to show how strange island weather can get, since here on the southeastern shore we’ve barely had any rain at all.
