Interestingly enough, I just ran across this — Pringles is now doing the same thing as Innocent, but no knitting, sadly. Still: very good for charities.

Martha Stweart dot com has the best gingerbread recipe EVER…search recipes under “Gingerbread Snacking Cake”. the recipe does call for eggs, but you can use your regular egg substitue with only a slight loss of fluffiness. I also use hot Jamaican Ginger Beer instead of boiling water for extra pepperiness.

Lovely hats! I miss the saturday knitting a lot… but I’m sure I’d use all my money in This is knit as well, so I guess I’m better off here… *sigh*

TadMack - I kind of agree with you on the little hats thing. However, I think it raises the profile of the charity which can only be a good thing. Plus the hats are quite cute, and my mum has one still from last year’s campaign that she bought because she thought it was lovely, so at least one person holds on to them

so ginger parkin…. i love gingerbread. i have never made ginger cake. so the search is on.

your hats are very cute. love the colors. admire the fact you did a little two color work there on such a weensy hat.

and if you find the perfect yarn for a project, you are practically obligated to buy it so the yarn doesn’t go to waste! have fun casting on! take care.

The little hats are cute, but I don’t quite get why the bottles …need them. Wouldn’t it make more sense for them to be given to knit up in newborn sizes and given to babies or something? What do people DO with the hats they buy on the bottles?

Okay, that was just the brain thing I couldn’t shut off. It’s off now.

It’s funny how the minute it gets cold I’m filled with longing to buy new yarn. Mind you, it would have made more sense to have been knitting all summer, but instead I pouted that it was raining. Duh.
