A Little Contest

January 29, 2007 By Carole

My weekend was good in a bunch of ways – most of them even fun. I started on a new pattern of Kristi’s that I’m test knitting for her. We had a romantic dinner out. We went to see The Queen and did a little shopping. All of that was fun.

The one thing that we did that was not so fun (because it’s more of an obligation, I suppose) was attend the annual meeting of the New England Brigade. And it’s not that it’s a bad time it’s just a long day and some of it is rather boring. Sadly, I was reelected as Clerk. Why is this sad, you ask? Because the clerk has to take minutes. It’s hard to take minutes and knit at the same time. There was one thing about the meeting that was really fun. I bumped into a fellow knit blogger.

I had Dale snap this photo of both of us wearing our Fetching mitts. I’ll send a skein of sock yarn to the first person who identifies the other blogger.

ETA: And that person is Jessalu who correctly guessed that the hands wearing the other set of mitts belong to Betty. Thanks for playing along everyone!

    Is it Maggie Luongo? Or Martha of Martita Rampage? My first thought was Sharon, but she’s blogless (sadly).

  2. Karen says

    January 29, 2007 at 6:46 am

    Fetching twins powers activate! I’m not sure who your twin is though.

  3. Ann says

    January 29, 2007 at 7:12 am

    No idea about the other blogger, but I too have experienced the ubiquitousness of the Fetching Mitt — in the grocery store. Not a blogger, but a mother of a knitter.

    January 29, 2007 at 7:36 am

    Who?!? We saw “The Queen” last weekend — I thought it was terrific!

  5. Elizabeth says

    January 29, 2007 at 7:36 am

    I’m guessing Jesse of JessaLu knits.

  6. margene says

    January 29, 2007 at 7:49 am

    Martha, Jessalu, Marcy, Sandy, Beth jeeeezzz I guess I don’t really know.

  7. Kim says

    I have no clue who the other blogger is, but sounds like you had a fun weekend!!

  8. ann says

    January 29, 2007 at 8:24 am

    no guess, but didn’t you love The Queen?!

  9. dale says

    January 29, 2007 at 8:28 am

    …I know, I know!

  10. maryse says

    January 29, 2007 at 8:32 am

    i’m guessing martha.

  11. britt says

    January 29, 2007 at 8:47 am

    I don’t know who the person is but it’s cool that you both had the same mitts!

  12. Robin says

    January 29, 2007 at 8:57 am

    I can’t wait to go see “The Queen”! So you liked it?!?!

  13. hillary says

    January 29, 2007 at 9:13 am

    No clue who the other blogger is but i love the mitts. Are those Kristi’s?

  14. Chris says

    January 29, 2007 at 9:32 am

    Hmm…… Concateknit??

  15. Norma says

    January 29, 2007 at 9:59 am

    Kellee? No clue, really, but that’s a great photo.

    I have no idea who the mystery twin is, but it’s a wonderful photo! 🙂

    How fun!

  17. JessaLu says

    January 29, 2007 at 10:22 am

    My guess is Betty…of Elizabetty fame ;o)

  18. Kathy says

    January 29, 2007 at 10:27 am

    Judy? Cindy?

  19. Rachel says

    January 29, 2007 at 10:43 am

    I have no idea who the other blogger is, but it’s so cool that you were both wearing the same mitts and have a picture to go along with it!

  20. Beth S. says

    January 29, 2007 at 10:58 am

    The one job that you can’t do while knitting! And a voice recorder wouldn’t even help that much, unless you could easily identify all the different voices. Ugh.

  21. Martha says

    January 29, 2007 at 11:17 am

    I would rather be president of an organization than take its minutes. Seriously. It’s less work. Clerking is hard.

  22. Lucia says

    January 29, 2007 at 12:54 pm

    Too late to the party, as always, but great photo! I gotta knit me some mitts.

  23. Cookie says

    Dale is so cute!

    I’m glad it was a mostly good weekend.

  24. amanda says

    January 29, 2007 at 1:05 pm

    too funny! i guess fetching is this season’s clapotis…blink and you might miss one!

  25. Emily says

    January 29, 2007 at 1:38 pm

    Yay for JessaLu. Fetching is everywhere!

  26. ~Kristie says

    January 29, 2007 at 3:33 pm

    Love your fetchings! It’s the perfect quick knit!

  27. Laura says

    January 29, 2007 at 5:56 pm

    How fun to have a Fetching friend! heh 🙂

  28. Rachel says

    January 29, 2007 at 6:03 pm

    I love recognizing hand-knit patterns on others! My dear friend from high school recently started her own photography studio, and she was showing me one of her first portrait shoots and the only thing I could fixate on was the fact that the little boy was wearing the star sweater from the cover of Adorable Knits for Tots.

    And of course meeting fellow knitters — not just their projects — is fun too. 🙂

  29. Birdsong says

    January 29, 2007 at 6:26 pm

    What a nice surprise to meet up with another knit blogger and share the love; you do need to bow out of that Clerk position though, as knitting makes meetings so much more interesting. Start grooming them now…

  30. Liz (the crazed weasel) says

    January 30, 2007 at 1:02 am

    What a fun picture!

    Sadly, extricating one’s self from something like a clerkship is…well, not so easy. One must often just quit and stick to the quit-ness for around six months.
