The photo hop was LOTS of fun, and I'd love to keep doing something like it. However, posting to a prompt daily and keeping up with everyone else was a lot of work, so I'm thinking of something like a weekly prompt (every Monday?) and favorites/roundups posted the following week. Let me know what you think.

Thanks for stopping by, and happy knitting!
xoxo,

KNITTING winner

Winner for yesterday's #knitting prompt: @storiedyarns and her beautiful pile of orange WIPs! I'll DM you in a second to find out which pattern you'd like. There's still time to join the #kdknitphotohop - deets in my feed 😀 #Repost @storiedyarns with @repostapp. ・・・ Today's #kdknitphotohop prompt is Knitting. This is the pile of projects I'm currently working on. It's one more than I usually like to have in progress at one time so I'm working to finish at least one soon. I like to have at least one mindless knit and one that requires more focus, so this is a good combination for me. #yearofmaking

Thanks, again, to everyone who played along! It was so fun that I'm thinking of doing a weekly prompt (seven days in. a. row. was kind of a lot for me, though that could be because it was also the first week of school, the week leading up to my and my husband's birthdays, as well as preparing for Penelope's belated birthday party - summer birthdays can be tough on a kid).

Tomorrow I will announce the yarn giveaway winner for enough Miss Babs Yowza in Oyster to knit the Caught in the Rigging cowl.

Thanks for stopping by, and happy knitting!
