Mission Accomplished!

Well, Knit’nStyle magazine April 2011 has hit the streets - I finally got my copy so I could see what they did with my stuff - I was okay with it except that they chopped one of my photos in the article, eliminating the most important part of the photo...oh well, it’s tough not being in control!

So, I get an email from the assistant editor of Knit’n Style - guess what? She said:
Hello Mary Anne,
I knew this would happen. You cannot have a sweater as cute as yours in the magazine and not expect to hear from the hand knitters. This morning I received an e-mail from a knitter who wants to know if there is a hand knitted version of the Swing Cardi pattern? I told her I could not make any promises but I would check with you. Thank you for your time and attention.

I loved it!! I was LMAO!! Sorry, but no hand knit version - tell her to buy a machine!
Since then, there have been several more requests for the same thing!
Ha! Mission Accomplished!
Also, we finally got the POM thing up on the website - you can check it out at http://www.knitwords.com/
- hope you sign up! I’m busy working on the February stuff - sneak peek - the mid gauge thing will be a raglan cardigan with tons of cute little details - of course you could do the stripped down version...

Mission accomplished indeed! I think that's also called "poetic justice".

Didn't see the cable rib on the cardi in the April issue or even the instructions. Like the April issue - great job.
