My hope is that once you visit this blog and see the beautiful alpacas and their guardians (Gonzo and Remus) you will visit often to find out what is what is going on with them. I am currently on baby watch for Nadine… anyday now, and I have three more due in July.
Back to the yarn give away. My birthday is July 25th and my goal is to have at least 150 people signed up for the give away by then, if I don’t have at least that many, I will extend the deadline to Sept. 2nd, my son’s birthday. So please spread the word. How to enter… leave me a comment on this blog and tell me about your first handmade craft project you can remember. Here is mine, I have two sisters (I’m the middle) and my mom was always making something by hand, of course we wanted in on it so we each were given a set of pillow cases to embroidery. I had to be in about the 4th grade, I don’t think I ever finished that project, I took up knitting (4H) instead. Please be sure to leave your name in the comment, check back on July 25th and I will announce the winner and we can iron out the details of where to send the yarn. The yarn will be my choice but will definitely come from one of my alpacas, check out my yarn on ETSY. Be sure to check back often as I will be keeping you up to date on the number of entries. Thanks for playing!

I love your blog. Wish I could remember what project I was doing while you were embroidering! I really need to get up and see Just Jack. He looks so cute - and he's the best color of all of them!

Does this even work?
How fun... My first handmade project was when I was around 10 years old. My mom bought me a crafting kit and I know that I did some potholders (on the weaving loom, with those little elastics that look like cut up nylons). there was also the little 5 pronged little tool that made dresses for your Barbies, or a belt.
Love the alpaca pics.
My first handmade project that I remember was when I was about six years old - an I-cord created by using a wooden spool with nails hammered into it as well as a small knit rectangle. My grandmother was teaching me how to do it. I was a rather independant child, and after woke up from a night of working on it I thought it looked a little longer than the previous night. I accused my dear grandmother of taking over my project and called her a dirty dog. Needless to say I was sent to my room and was rather upset, and abandoned knitting (and I cords) for quite some time.
--now it's been about twenty years - my dear grandmother has passed on and I've picked up knitting again. Still hate the I cords.
