Is anyone out there?

In an effort to motivate you, the reader(s),and motivate myself, I am announcing a contest/drawing! Want to own a cool handknit pair of socks? enter the drawing!
Notice I said PAIR of socks? That's the motivation for me. I will finish these socks before the contest ends. One is finished and the other just needs the foot and toe, but they have been hiding in a pile of UFO's since last fall.
To be entered in the drawing, all you have to do is COMMENT on this or any other of my posts before May 31. Commenting is easy, You can do it Anonymously....no need to sign up for blogger. I will draw by comment number and then post the winning number on June 1, so you will need to check back to see if you are the winner. That way there is no need to leave your name.
I will send these cool socks to the lucky commenter. Keep them, wear them, give them away. Heck , you can even tell people you made them yourself, I don't care.
Socks are a lot of knitting time,why am I doing this, giving them away, possibly to a stranger? Because it feels like there is no one reading my blog. I am just wanting to see if there is anyone out there?
Let the contest begin!

I was just thinking the same thing... that no one's reading my blog and maybe a contest would tease them out!

I too have wondered about my blog. It seems as if the hits I get are for the same old posts. The one about how to sew a frog gets hits every week from all over the world. I sure wonder why. And the really thoughtful posts that I have taken the most time with hardly get looked at at all!

Oh, and I sure would love a new pair of handknit socks!

What the heck- the contest ends on my birthday, so I might as well enter. Maybe it'll be lucky for me. Added bonus, I love the
sock(s)!!!
