Fifteen seconds of fame

Posted on July 27, 2008 | 9 Comments

My blog is mentioned in the local newspaper’s online knitting blog today!

Backstory: Last fall, I went to our local high school’s fund raising auction. I purchased five messages on the readerboard. After wishing Kid2 a happy birthday last winter, I couldn’t think of anything else to put up. So I finally did this:

got knit

Several friends told me that they saw the sign, but I guess it got more attention than I thought!

    Sweet!

    I love the word “knitterati” – it cracks me up every time.

    What a great idea! So wonderful that it was picked up by the paper’s knitting blog. Actually, I think the fact that the paper HAS a knitting block is wonderful! They should pass that idea along to other venues. 🙂

    I think you’ve more than 15 minutes coming your way. And I can’t believe your paper has a knitting blog. Another reason to relocate to PDX. Dee
