In a shameless and frankly rather needy bid to attract more comments on this blog, I hereby announce the UPP’s first competition. The prize is this knitted scarf:

| Perfect should you ever need to camouflage yourself amid a flock of parrots. |
It's about 12 centimetres wide and 1.5 metres long. For those who like a craft spec, the stitch is 1 x 1 rib on 4.5 mm needles and the yarn is Noro Silk Garden, a wool/silk blend. I had a fascination with this yarn for about two years, knitting my way through a couple of hundred dollars' worth and finishing up with a whole bunch of ball ends. Thriftily, I decided to meld them into a scarf. Now I offer it to you, dear readers.
To enter the competition, check out the rules on the WIN STUFF page (top right) and post a comment there.
It's a modest prize, reflecting the youth of this blog and the number of people who seem to be reading it, but look on the bright side: your chances of winning will probably be quite high!
tried to post a comment and a story but blogger told me it was too long
