It is time for a couple of "thank yous".
A while back, Robin knit a pair of socks for someone. The fit wasn't quite to the recipient's liking and the colors were right out. Robin asked if anyone would like to have the socks. I said I would love them and so the socks came to live with me. Thanks, Robin!
Also a while ago, Georgi had a 200th post contest. I commented as is my usual wont and Georgi picked me as the second place winner. I told her to send my winning yarn to the other winner, since Georgi has four-footed furry housemates and we all know how well I do with the whole allergen thing. Georgi refused. Instead, she went out of her way to stop by her LYS and the way to the post office and picked me up some fresh, new yarn. Georgi, you are a winner, thank you again!
PS - Heads up, blog peeps: the tea tin contest is over. Winner to be announced this week.
PPS - Neatnik's school is continuing to collect Box Tops for Education. I'm thinking of having a Second Annual Box Topapalooza. What say ye?

Oh, that was very sweet of Georgi! And lucky you re: the socks from Robin.
You should do the box tops thing again, now that I have a box top. :)
Glad you like them ~ and that looks like yummy yarn from Georgi! What a sweetheart to send it super fresh!
I am glad you like the yarn, I did. I think you should go for the Box Topalooza. Its a worthy cause and they would just get thrown away if you don't do it.
Lovely socks! Very sweet of Georgi to go out of her way like that. Knitters do indeed rock!
Aw, that's sweet of Georgi! She takes care of her winners. And sweet of Robin too. Finding a good home for her socks.
Those socks and that yarn are great colorways too. Makes me long for fall.
I think an annual Box Topapalooza would be in order. I actually know what that means now.
I have been saving all my box tops in hopes of another Box Topalooza.
Sounds like you have a great day!
Sweet winnings! And yes to the Box Tops!
