Yarn Sweepstakes!

Ivy's Vine is having a sweepstakes with a very unusual premise. You'll have to check it out at http://kehinde.com/blog/?p=597.

Leave a comment on her blog to win a skein of 70% merino, 30% silk yarn, enough for two socks. What are you doing still reading? Check it out! You'll get a marvelous piece of Egyptian lore even if you don't win the sock yarn.

In SF news, there is a new series  starting on Lifetime, called Devil's Diary. I really don't know much about it, but the trailer looks interesting. With any luck it'll be as good as Hex. It's on at the same time as Dragon Sword, though. If you can't watch (or record) both, Dragon Sword will be on again on the second of August at 11:00 pm (my time).

The navy blue Christmas present hood I'm making is up past the neck and the increasing/decreasing part of the hood, and now is a straight shot to the top, with only kitchnering the top, darning in ends and blocking to do until finished.

Have a relaxing and fun Sunday with what's left of it!
