Can I ask a favor of you guys? My wife is in a contest to name a craft book and is in need of votes. Not sure what the prize is, but if you could follow the link and vote for her title, I know she would greatly appreciate it. I might even get a little reward myself if she wins, but we won’t go there.

Here's the link:

The title she submitted is:

"This and That for Loom Knitting - A Compilation of Hints, Helps, Tips and Patterns."

Thanks

I can't believe I just voted on a knitting site. I need to go and work on the car, or play some football or smelt some iron or something fast.

Posted by: Howard May 31 2006, 09:14 AM

Done! Joe, you still fighting 'those' tendencies?

Posted by: KaptKaos May 31 2006, 09:16 AM

There you are! I was beginning to worry that you had lost your edge Howie, or that someone hid your viagra. Anyway, its great to see you back in fighting form!

Yep Voted Plezze don't tell I was on the knitting site

Posted by: itsa914 May 31 2006, 10:24 AM

Well to be fair, I asked my wife which title she liked best since she knits.

And she picked your wifes. So one more vote from my wife and another from me.

Posted by: STL914 May 31 2006, 10:26 AM

Thanks Joe, I'll see if I can convince her to knit you a car cover. She's pretty good at what she does. She made this for me while I was in CT. She actually worked on it during the Rennsport Reunion at LimeRock. It's not knitted, it's counted cross stitch.

Cool site! I think I'm going to sell the teener for a new hobby.

I just ordered this book - #965 Frivolous Tie Front Top & Bag

Anyone ever used it??? I hope it's good.

BEHOLD THE POWER OF THE CLUB


Due to the response from the members of the 914club, my wife was declared the winner of the "Name the Knitting Book" contest.

Again, thanks to all of you closet knitters! You know who you are.
