I am a miserable blogger

and I don't mean to be. I think about posting every day, and yet another day will pass and I don't get here unless I have a reason.

Today I have a reason. I have a cyber friend, Henya. We met years ago in a coop that I run for yarn sales. She is from Brooklyn (I love people from Brooklyn, don't you...? possibly because it's where I lived for 40 years and have a natural affinity for all things Brooklyn, but Henya has earned a place in my heart.) I digress, as usual.

The reason for this post is that Henya announced that she has posted her 100th post on her blog (which puts me to shame) in the short while that she has had it. She, most generously, posts many of her knitting patterns for free and she is quite talented.

In honor of her reaching (and passing) her 100th post, she is holding a contest on her chicken stitches blog.

If you want to see some pretty creative designs and read about her interesting life, her love of her family and just some pretty good stuff, head on over there. You won't be sorry you did.
