To celebrate, just some random things.<\/p>\n<p>First, thanks to all of you who comment and all of you who lurk. A special shout out to someone who has commented and linked to my blog more than anyone else: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/possessedtoknit.typepad.com\/\">Roseann<\/a>. I am not sure I would have &#8220;met&#8221; half of you out there if it wasn&#8217;t for her.<\/p>\n<p>Also, thank you to Mr. Penney, who puts up with all of this. Not that he wasn&#8217;t warned when we first met, but sometimes you really have to live with someone to get the full breadth of the insanity.<\/p>\n<p>Strangely, the thing that brings most Googlers to this site? <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.textillian.com\/?p=49\">Living room curtains<\/a>. Seriously. Followed not too far behind by <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.textillian.com\/?p=32\">buffalo plaid<\/a>. With all of the knitting that happens on blog?<\/p>\n<p>Which is another thing? I never would have guessed a year ago that there would be so much knitting on this blog. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.textillian.com\/?cat=5\">Baby sweaters, socks, sweaters<\/a>. I have some theories on why that has happened, but I will get into that another time.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and does anyone check out the songs that I use for titles? Granted, I really stretch it sometimes, which is part of the reason why I am not so sure how long that means of titling will last.<\/p>\n<p>And, I just got <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/weavingspirit.blogspot.com\/2008\/01\/day-made-before-i-even-get-dressed.html\">an award<\/a>! <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/akamaiknitter.com\/archives\/334\">Opal <\/a>had me as an honorable mention before, but now I actually have it! It kind of came out of left field for me, as I didn&#8217;t even know Bonnie read my blog. Which is another great thing. People that I never would have thought I would come in contact with actually think what I have to say is sometimes of interest. How great is that!<\/p>\n<p>Thank you all for a great year! There will be more to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reference Well, it was a year ago today that I made my first post, after converting my old website over to a blog.
