When changing colors in one piece, always start your new ball of yarn on the right side of the work. This will prevent “bleeding”

Never do finishing in low light, in front of the TV, or at night.  Come on now, you’ve come so far; this is not the time to get sloppy!

Hello

This is one last effort to ask for your help.  We promise no more emails for a while!

We want to thank those of you who have successfully endorsed our store on the Shine A Light website, but know just as many of you had difficulty with the site. Many of our customers have told us so. Hopefully, you can try one more time.  We need 50 endorsements by September 13. We have had 474 viewings since my last email to you, so I know you all have checked it out but your vote is not being counted.

1) click on http://shinealight.ivillage.com/sbo-profile/?ProfileID=4483

2) be sure to register – your vote wont count unless you do and be sure to scroll down to the end of the rules box before you check that you agree to the rules of the contest

3) log on to vote

4) click on endorse now

Knowing knitters the way that we do, we know you will persevere!

Thanks once again,

Goldie and Laura
