September 26th Farmer's Market

Good evening everyone! I hope you're having a wonderful start to the weekend.

Buenas tardes a todos. Espero que estéis teniendo 0un maravilloso comienzo de fin de semana.


As you can see from the picture above, it is from today's Farmer's Market that was held at the Main Street Pavilion area of Kentlands. Since it is getting to be colder and winter will be here, I thought I'd put out some scarves, hoods, and some holiday gift ideas. If there is anything that you may be interested in, please let me know.

Como podéis ver en la foto de arriba, es de hoy del mercado de granjeros que está ubicado en el Pavellón de l a calle principal del área de Kentlands. Como ya pronto estarán aquí la época del frío y el invierno, pensé en mostrar algunas bufandas, capuchas, gorros y algunas ideas para Navidad. Si hay algo que os pueda interesar, hacédmelo saber.

Speaking of the Farmer's Market and knitted items, I'd like to thank everyone who had been to my table and bought a baby blanket, two scrunchies, a headband, and two phone socks. I would also like to thank those who had also taken some business cards, as well.

Hablando del mercado de granjeros y los géneros de punto, me gustaría agradecer a todos los que estuvieron en la mesa-st and y compraron una mantita de bebé, 2 amuletos, una diadema, y dos calcetines de teléfono móvi. También me gustaría agradecer a esas personas que también cogieron algunas tarjetas de visita.


Well, I guess this is all for today. More news to come soon. The next Farmer's Market is scheduled for October 3rd from 10am-2pm. I hope to see you then!

Thank You Clara!

I would like to thank my friend (and new translator for the Knitting By Leah web site), Clara for all the help that she has done so far. Without her, the Spanish translation for the recently added postings couldn't have been done. I really appreciate all the hard work and effort that she has made to make the web site bilingual!

Gracias, Clara.
Me gustaría agradecer a mi amiga (y nueva traductora para la web Knitting By Leah), Clara por toda la ayuda que ella ha realizado desde tan lejos. Sin ella, la traducción al español para las anotaciones
recientemente añadidas en el blog no podrían haberse hecho. Realmente aprecio todo el trabajo duro y el esfuerzo que ella ha hecho para elaborar esta web bilingüe.

CONTEST!

We are having a contest! The contest is to think of ideas for new uses for the items that we already have. My friend, Clara came up with the idea of using phone socks and crayon carriers to carry and conceal feminine hygiene products. The winner gets a FREE phone sock, kleenex carrying case or crayon carrier. The deadline for the contest is November 14th.

Hemos organizado un concurso! El concurso es para pensar en ideas para nuevos usos para los productos que ya tenemos. Mi amiga, Clara se le ocurrió la idea de usar calcetines de teléfonos móviles y los estuches para lápices para llevar y ocultar productos de higiene femenina. El ganador recibe un calcetín de teléfono móvil gratuito, un guarda-kleenex o un estuche de lápices. La fecha límite de recibir ideas para el concurso es 14 de noviembre.
