Okay folks. I'm late, but I'm here!

Yesterday was one of those days. Found out the gallery my bfa show is at double booked that week, so my friend and I being undergrads were the ones to get moved. Then I lost my lady moss mitten and locked my keys in the car, fell on my back out with the nape of my neck landing right on something hard, then smashed my finger in the cabinet. Holy moly. Just one of those.

But it did end with knitting and hot chocolate so today I woke up cheery and things are looking up. Then I remembered! The contest!

So here we are. The correct answer for how many magazines does interweave press publish is (drum roll please):
Bead Work
Step By Step Beads
Step By Step Wire
Lapidary Journal Jewelry Artist
Stringing
Colored Stone
Best of Beadwork
Beads
Creative Jewelry
Easy Wire
Interweave Knits
Interweave Crochet
Interweave Felt
Knit Scene
Interweave Knits Holiday Gifts
Spin Off
Fiber Arts
Cloth Paper Scissors
Piece Work
Quilting Arts
Hand Woven

21 in all. Some are quarterly, some are once a year, and some are special issues. Wow.

I honestly had no idea that they published Fiber Arts, one of my favorite fiber arts magazines. Personally I lean towards knit scene, but I love what interweave crochet is doing for crochet patterns too. Ah, I love them all really!

So I am happy to say that after a random drawing, Sherri is the winner of this past weeks craft trivia question. She will get a wonderful box full of buttons, trim, fabric and other little doo dads! Hooray! Out of all of them, she says that Interweave Crochet is her favorite. Good choice!

This week's question?
What year did Elizabeth Zimmerman independently publish her first newsletter? If you have any of her books/patterns which is your favorite?

She is such a cool power house of knitting genius!

You have until Sunday March 23rd (easter) to submit your answer! GO!

WAIT, not yet, hehe.

One more thing. Craft Leftovers Monthly is currently on sale until Friday night (after I get off work), March 21st. There are only 4 left, so if you want one, you better snatch it up now.

Thanks to everyone who has participated in the trivia mailing list contest!

For a book give away contest, head over to http://kristinroach.wordpress.com. I'm having a book give aways every week (posted on wednesdays) until I move in May.

See you all soon!

Now Go!
