A Week of Giveaways, Day 5: Knit-O-Rama

  

You know I love to knit. And I bet you could guess that I have too much yarn in my stash! So that's why today I am giving away a knitting book (yet to be named), a pair of needles, and some yarn from my own collection (I call it a collection so my husband won't expect me to actually USE it).

All you wannabe knitters, this is your chance! Leave me a comment and tell me how often you want me to post on my blog:

A. Every day

B. 4-5 times a week

C. 3 times a week

Tell me the truth now, don't just say "A" because you think that's what I want to hear! I WANT THE TRUTH (and yes, I can handle it).

I would think 4 or 5 times a week would be good. I notice when people post every day and if something happens and they don't post for a day or two there could be feelings of concern or annoyance from readers. This is suppose to be fun, or so I would think.

this is so funny seeing today's give-a-way. honestly i couldn't sleep last night and for some reason scrapping and such was on my mind. and i recalled that one of your blog's is about knitting and that you liked to knit and i thought i should take a pic a pair of 'mittens' i knitted a couple of years ago. HILARIOUS!!!!!
i would love to be a knitter.. my nanny is, my mom was, but i just can't get the hang of it. so to all you knitters out there i bow down to you!!!

I would love to say every day, but I think 5 times a week is more realistic. We all have days when we can't read your blog, so you should be allowed days when you don't write on it! Any less would be bad, because we look to you for daily inspiration...some of us need the help to creatively scrap our lives!!

[Dawn]

I would like to see you blog every day, but I think we all understand if life gets in the way sometimes! You seem to be experiencing life events in a similar fashion to my own life, so I like to hear your ideas on how to handle some of these issues. I really liked the ideas on going green!

[Diana]

duh i forgot to post that 4-5 times a week would be fantastic

I love yarn, the feel and the colours. Knitting seems to take coordination with which I have not been blessed. I greatly admire those who can.

As for number of posts, since it's all about "5" around here, how about the weekdays and take the weekends off?

:)

[Kris Van Allen]

I am going with fewer, with 3 times a week....not because I don't love your blog, but because I don't get a chance to check all of the blogs I read every day. If everyone I read posts every day, it takes forEVER to catch up. And like someone else said, it gives you the opportunity to take a day or 2 off, compose longer blog entries, or whatever.

I enjoy your blog atit's current frequency, it has substance, but I can read it while nursing the baby or answering questions from my older kids.

I love reading your blog every day, but it's really up to you and how much time you have/want to devote to it. I'll read no matter what. Thanks!

[Lonely Scrapbooker]

Can you do 5 posts a week and maintain your sanity?! I love your posts, but so much effort clearly goes in them that I think 3 a week would be fair.

[Sara]

I agree with the others who said 4-5 times per week, since you deserve to take a day off now and then! I don't usually check my blog reader on the weekends either, so they tend to pile up by Monday morning. I'd love to win your knitting overstock ;-) I've been thinking about learning how to knit or crochet, so that would be perfect!

[jenni]

I love your blog and enjoy reading every single post you share. But the pressure of sharing every day might take away the fun - so I'd say 4-5 times a week would be awesome.

And I'm a new-ish knitter (learning from my mom) and would LOVE this giveaway. Thanks!
=)

[Danielle]

would love for you to post everyday absolutely!!!

My dh would kill me if I actually won today's give-away since I have my own lovely stock sleeping in a cardbox in my office's cupboard. *sigh* Anyway, I couldn't help myself from giving my opinion on this so here I go: I'd love to be able to find a post from you every single day of the week, but I think that you also need a break to tend to other things so I'll say 4-5 times a week would be great. Less than that might bring on some withdrawal syndroms! LOL =)

[Jennifer @ Simple Scrapper]

I'm going to vote for weekdays only (so, 4-5 days a week), because I try to disconnect on the weekends.

[Christy Boden]

I think you should post 4-5 times a week. I hope to win because I decided a couple of days ago that I want to learn to knit!!

[Christine Jensen]

A or B is my preference! I have FINALLY figured out how to do the Purl stitch (thank you online video tutorials!), so I am anxious to start trying new patterns!!

[Leslie]

I would say A or B. It's really what's best for you.

[Julie S.]

I just picked up Stitch 'n Bitch book and have reconnected with knitting after about a year and a half so my fingers are firmly crossed.
I would vote for the 4-5 posts per week option. I also think that it's important to be flexible with yourself and your time. Life happens!

[Shelly]

I'm voting for 4-5 per week. Everyone needs some time off for good behavior - and besides, you can always post more! :D

[Maureen]

I think every day....

[Janet Khashab]

Honestly,
I'd like you to post twice a day. Yes, it would be all-consuming, but this blog is so good I find myself checking in multiple times a day even though I know there won't be a new post...unless...
thanks for all the giveaways

[Kym Randall]

Free yarn? Oh yes, I'll comment for that. :) But seriously, Lain; I love the short "5 things" posts you do, and seeing one of those 4-5 times a week is a good boost for my own creativity and thought process. I DO like the longer posts, too, though...maybe once a week? I know, in your free time you can post every day, right. :)

[Marygail]

I think 3 times a week is plenty :) Would love to learn how to knit :)

[kate]

4-5 days a week works for me, maybe because that's how often I post :-)
