Comment by pinkknitting on June 3, 2009 at 10:20pm - Cheryl, Mine always arrives exactly one day early. Not sure why. It's weird. Peony is beautiful too. I just started my Little Bubbles Baby Set tonight and this is my first experience with Comfy. I LOVE IT!!!

Comment by cherylbwaters on June 3, 2009 at 10:18pm - Tiffany, I think that is a perfect color for you. I'm waiting for mine to arrive. I also got the Comfy, but chose Peony. It's not scheduled to arrive until the 8th. But it has already left Dallas. Although it's only around 200 miles, it usually takes 3 days to get to me once it goes through Dallas. That would mean maybe Saturday. But, for me, it usually doesn't arrive early.

- Great questions Cheryl! :) I got my yarn today. I LOVE it!!! So pretty. It's Comfy in Pomengranate. Can't wait to see what we are making. I know I won't win but still should be fun!

- Also, Angela, can you give us some guidelines on yardage other than 10 balls?

- Angela, We know to use 7s. Is this circs and do we use a specific length or is it circs and dpns. Also Angel Bear asked if we can check gauge now or do we need to wait.

- Chris from what I understand they want us all to use worsted weight to keep the playing field even so to speak.
