Contest winner and Coffee Swap

I didn't even realize how long it's been since I posted. Time sure flies.

Remember my blog contest? The big question was, which show did I add first to my season pass list once I set up my Tivo. The answer, as most of you guessed was Battlestar Galactica. After throwing everyone's name who guessed correctly into a hat, a winner was picked. Congrats to Jody of Knit n Things. Your yarn is on it's way!

While browsing the knitting community on Livejournal today, stumbled across this scarf.


[Pattern can be found here.] Not only is it a great stashbuster, using less than one ball of lace weigvht yarn, but I love the design of it. With Icarus getting on my last nerve, and Lacevember nearly being over, I have decided to sit Icarus aside for the time being and cast on for this in hopes that I might actually be able to finish one lacey item by the end of this month.

In other knit-a-long news, I am lucky enough to be participating in the Knitter's Coffee Swap. I'm super excited as my two favorite things are knitting and coffee! Here's my questionarre for my pal!

1. Whole bean or ground? Ground.

2. Fully-loaded or decaf? Fully loaded!

3. Regular or flavored? Either or. I usually use flavored creamers with regular coffee and regular half and half with flavored coffee.

4. How do you drink your coffee? Light and sweet.

5. Favorite coffee ever? I have no idea. I rarely get to taste anything fancy, it's usually just chock-o-nuts from the supermarket.

6. Are you fussy about your coffee or will any old bean do? I'm not fussy, as long as it's fresh and tastes good!

7. Favorite treats to have with your coffee? Baked goods, some chocolate once in a while.

8. Anything else about your coffee preferences? I amnot a fan of dark roasts.

9. Yarn/fiber you love? Noro. I can't get enough Noro Silk Garden at the moment.

10. Yarn/fiber you hate? Acrylics, fun fur.

11. What's on your needles? Icarus Shawl, Forbes Forest Scarf, Lady Eleanor.

12. Favorite colors? Blues and greens.

13. Allergies? None revlevant to this swap.

14. Anything you really love, really don't like, or just need to get off your chest? Nope. I'm good.
