Kickstart: Mynabirds, Contest Winner, STEEKING, etc.

I re-discovered this song this weekend and am going to spend most of this morning listening to it on repeat.

Still waiting to hear from Suzanne, who won the Ghosts eBook and skein of Madelinetosh in the giveaway! If I don’t hear from her by the end of the day today, I’ll draw a new winner. (Note to self, make sure to ask for email addresses in future giveaways.)

I accomplished quite a bit over the weekend, including blocking a pair of socks, knitting a hat (in about three hours, no less), and cutting my very first steek! So much to blog about over the next couple of weeks.

And finally, November is typically reserved for NaBloPoMo, and once again I plan on participating. I thought it might be fun to have a Q&A feature, so I need your questions! They can be about anything—knitting, photography, cheese (though I will say I know more about knitting and photography than cheese)—whatever you want to ask, whether it’s completely impersonal (like “cake or pie?”) or personal, go ahead and ask, either as a comment on the blog, on the Facebook wall, via email (threadpanda + gmail). I do reserve the right to not answer questions for whatever reason, but I’m pretty open and willing to answer questions, so please, ask away!
