Three boxes arrived on Monday!
The 14th box to finish the race!
The Dish Rag Divas!
Knitting the last leg of the race for the Divas was Jennifer! She sent me great treats:
The green tea soap has perfumed the room!
The delicious green dishrag is in the “Flying Keys” pattern from Insanknity and is very cool – although it didn’t photograph well enough to show you. The yummy cotton and Green Tea are most welcome! Especially since it has been cool in the mornings lately. It’s not soup weather yet, but a cup of tea is certainly welcome. Thank you so much, Jennifer!
Boxes 15 and 16 finished the race neck and neck:
I think the mail carrier was feeling creative.
Hooray for team Rags to Dishes and the Disparate Knitters!
Ooooh, caterpillar yarn!
The Rags to Dishes dish rag from Cindy has an “E” on it for me! It was knit in part in a very creative place (see her September 14th entry). She has also included two very sweet blank books, fun cotton (I think the white one is going to come out polka dots), a cute sweater key chain and sheepy ornament! Thank you thank you!
Cotton yarn in warm and cool colors!
Representing the Disparate Knitters, the flower dish rag from Grace is made with self-striping yarn which worked out beautifully. The Lorna’s Laces is in the color way “Vera” which, for reasons I can’t explain, makes me want pie. I would also like to direct your attention to the Bubble Tape Label Maker which has given my several minutes of entertainment already: I wrote William Henry’s name on the gum to see if it would make him feel better about the whole eye thing. He was unimpressed but I enjoyed it so the gum didn’t go to waste. Thanks a million, Grace! I think the LL may be destined for a berry basket sock with a pie crust edge!
Many thanks to all three teams for making Dish Rag Tag a great success!

Hmmm. Looks like all the status bars are stuck again. I’ll go clear the cache. Incidentally, I don’t know why some of them extend past their designated space. I’ll get Michael to work on that for next year. Oh dear. Did I just say “next year”?
