I guess I’ll have to face it: I’ve been rejected.
I got into the queue for the Knitting Bloggers webring before they closed, and it now is apparent that I have been left in the queue. The mistress of the ring says that only people who failed to follow The Rules were left behind.
I post very regularly, I didn’t get into the queue till I had been blogging for a month, and my grammar is unexceptionable. Therefore it must be that I broke the cardinal rule and talked too much about things other than knitting. I am, apparently, not a true Knitting Blogger, but rather just a Blogger Who Knits.
What can I say? The DNA scarf (70% completed) reminds me of Crick and Watson. A trip to my Local Yarn Shop makes me think of globalisation. I pick up something to read while I turn a heel and pretty soon I’m musing on saints, or male-female differences, or cake. That’s just the kind of mind I have.
Ah, well. Silkenshine is still allowing me to be one of the Yarn Hos. I can take comfort in that.
My act of contrition for missing TLAPD: Avast, me hearties – yarn, ho!
I wonder if the ring-mistress has missed the point of knitting blogs? I don’t think I ready any blogs that are all knitting, all the time; if I wanted that, couldn’t I just pick up a technical knitting book? The knitting blogs I read are like knitting in themselves – knitting, thought, emotion, biography, all stitched together. I think yours is an exemplary knitting blog, and I’m thrilled to have you on board. 😀
Hehe I’ve been looking foward to TLAPD since last years! I even told all my girls about it, but alas, on the day itself i COMPLETELY forgot!
i completely agree with you..knitting blogs are wonderful because they are about knitting and a whole slew of other fun stuff. A blog solely about knitting would be like reading a darn magazine…
yay for us yarn hos though! 🙂
