Why? Because I usually do some sort of give-away... right?!  So here I am in Florida and there won't be anytime for blogging... and there might not even be wifi where I am staying. I'm at my grandmother's house- where the knitting all started.  And then Fri, Sat, Sun I will be at <a href="https://www.agoodyarnsarasota.com/">A Good Yarn</a> for a trunk show! Yay!  I have never been to this shop before but I am very excited to go and see all the lovely and exclusive yarns Susan carries.  I know she has very special things there.  I wonder if I will have enough room in my suitcase...

Anyway- if you are going to be in the area, make sure you stop by A Good Yarn and say hello!

Moving right along, I promised you a give-away right?!  So here it is- one lucky winner will get two hanks of <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/yarns/library/kollage-yarns-toasty">Kollage Toasty</a>  (100% wool, 108 yards) in the color 8203 Foliage as well as a PDF of the <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/green-leaf-ascot">Greenleaf Ascot</a> pattern to go along with the yarn.  And you know I always throw in some fun goodies to go with these prizes.
