Oh, Lonesome Me

October 4, 2006 By Carole

I’m guessing that most of you who read my blog also read Susan’s blog. But in case you don’t, you might have missed the fact that Susan and I have started a Yahoo Group together.

Introducing:

lonesome_skein_web.jpg

The Lonesome Skein Knitalong is designed to help you use up those solitary skeins of yarn you have hanging. We are suggesting that you use them to make quick and easy projects for holiday and charity giving. There are links for patterns and the emails and introductions are flowing.

You can read all about the group by clicking on the picture up there but you need to hurry because sign ups close on October 16th.

Hope you’ll join us!

    Very cute. I reckon I’ll just mosey on over and enlist, er, sign up.

    I don’t do Christmas Knitting and rarely do small projects. But it’s a GREAT idea!

  4. Jes says

    October 4, 2006 at 8:38 am

    Yay! I already joined. I have so many lonesome skeins, balls, hanks, the works! Thanks for making this group!

  5. Rachel H says

    October 4, 2006 at 8:47 am

    Cool idea.

  6. Kathy says

    I already signed up, despite my self-imposed prohibition on any additional knit-alongs (because I stink at them!)

  7. meg says

    October 4, 2006 at 9:28 am

    You got me – just signed up! Can’t wait to create a little wiggle room in my stash before Rhinebeck!

  8. Sarah says

    October 4, 2006 at 9:31 am

    What a good idea! What charities are you suggesting people donate to?

  9. Judy says

    October 4, 2006 at 9:35 am

    I’m in…thanks for the heads up. Great idea!

  10. Birdsong says

    October 4, 2006 at 10:36 am

    I just went and signed up. Now, we’ll just see if I make it through the screening process……….sounds like a good idea!

    October 4, 2006 at 11:36 am

    Hey, that picture looks like it came from my house (although they are probably too many trees for it to actually be my house). Great idea. I’m going to have to think about this one.

  14. Kelly says

    October 4, 2006 at 11:42 am

    I love this idea!

  15. Chris says

    October 4, 2006 at 11:46 am

  16. Cookie says

    October 4, 2006 at 12:26 pm

    What a great idea! Where were you two when I was cuddling that skein of baby alpaca? *L*

  17. Cynthia says

    October 4, 2006 at 12:47 pm

    Okay not like I have any leftover skeins of yarn…LOL…I can’t wait to check this out!

  18. Vicki says

    October 4, 2006 at 12:57 pm

    I absolutely love it! I’ve already submitted my application. ; )

  19. Monica says

    October 4, 2006 at 3:33 pm

  20. Carrie K says

    October 4, 2006 at 7:36 pm

    Oh, what a good idea! I’ll just sit here and admire all your clever ideas as I’m on a KAL moratorium until I actually K, you know, AL and not eons after the fact.

  21. Rachel says

    October 5, 2006 at 9:25 am

    Great idea! I’ve just signed up. I hope I can put in as much as I expect to get out of it!

  22. Theresa says

    October 5, 2006 at 1:37 pm

    Tempting . . .

  23. Betty says

    October 5, 2006 at 10:35 pm

    I’m in! I’ve got lots of them pesky single skeins hangin’ around. And I’m feeling motivated. And I need some fingerless mitts. Thank you!
