I have made pretty good progress on Mythica - well, for me anyhow! I really love working with this yarn so I'm not really rushing it ya know? But, here's how it looks right now.
The Superbowl squares are still going. I'm hoping we are able to fill up all 100 squares! If not, we'll figure something else out so that we don't have any blank spaces. I have something new to add to the mix though........
If you repost THIS Knit Witch post on your blog - I will give you one entry. We have a limited time to spread the word to get all of the squares filled so if you can help us spread the word I would appreciate it! If you repost it - just email me to let me know and I'll give you a square (or another square if you have already sent some contributions in). Sound good???
What's everyone up to for the weekend? I think we will probably be laying low. I think the weather here is supposed to be bad (read: a few flakes of snow and maybe even some ice). Even though you Northerners and Canadians will be laughing at us - that means staying home! We had to go to the grocery store yesterday because we were out of bananas. My husband has suddenly decided that he is eating nothing but tuna fish, cottage cheese and bananas so we couldn't be out of bananas. Whatever...........I try not to lecture him on the dangers of mercury poisoning. But the grocery store was CRAZY! I didn't even know that many people lived in Blue Ridge! Good grief.
Monday I start my first class...........eeeek (taking not teaching)! So, I need to get busy doing some reading and working on some assignments this weekend too. I contacted my old employer (Children's Healthcare of Atlanta) about doing my dissertation in conjunction with them so that I could actually do a useful project that would matter to someone. I told them that my primary area of interest is in nursing education and they were very receptive - so I am excited about that! It would be great to go back there and do some work on a project.
OK - I'm rambling! I have lots of dyeing to do today as I am making some of those gorgeous shawl kits for Stitches South which I am very excited about!!!! The kits will be available in the Only Ewe and Cotton Too booth and I'll let you know more details about it as I find them out.
Don't forget to post the contest on your blog - thanks everyone!!!

Hi! I just wanted to tell you that I've plugged your competition on my blog http://jenny-stickar.blogspot.com. I didn't copy everything from your competition post, but rather linked to it, so I don't know if that counts?

I don't suppose there'll be any squares left next Friday, eh? When is the Superbowl again? *sigh* When payday gets here, I'll be making my donation.
5 inches of snow and ice ain't nothing to laugh at! Well maybe you and I will be laughing when we get stranded here. No one better to get stranded with than you Knit Witch!
Mythica is looking great! Nice job. I'm going to buy a square today! I don't want to miss out on the fun. BTW, the storm headed your way passed through here yesterday! We had lots of sleet, ice, and now it's snowing. AND, school was canceled! Yay. I can stay home and knit.
I also put up a link, don't know if it counts, at www.knitting12steps.blogspot.com.
The shawl kit is beautiful! I'm still so stinkin' mad that I won't be able to go to Stitches this year....
Stay safe and warm this weekend!
