    I was so happy to stumble upon this link on paperbackswap.com!! I love to knit and seeing how good others are at it keeps me plugging along. Though my hats are not as 'fancy' (mine are only 1 color so far) I love knitting them... someday I will make cool hats like yours! :)

    Blessings,

    SUPER, congratulations! I have no idea how many people come to my blogs. I guess the site meters might help with that.

    Enter me in your contest if that's OK--you have my email and I think I am already linked to you on no Polar, I'll check and if not, I'll add you.
