Count Down Time

[Shandeh]

I am so anxious to get started that I have set a reminder in my blackberry! Does anyone know the time of day that the clue will be released??

At our last Mystery-Along, the clues were released at midnight, at the very beginning of the day!

I have noticed several people mentioning that thy are going to wind their skeins into balls in our time left. I have never done that to skeins like this where you can pull from the center. Are there advantages? Becky

I think it's a personal preference thing. Some people swear by it.

For me, I've never once wound a skein into a ball, and I've knit over 300 projects. No problems so far.

Ditto on not "winding" the yarn into balls. It seems that the more you play with it, the more ravelly (sp?) it gets.

And in reply to the poster who is getting together with her sister to work on their afgahns, my sister and do that too. We give each other support and it is a bit of a competition to keep up and finish the projects.

Last CAL the clues were released at midnight Wednesday morning, but I was abe to get them at 9:00pm Tuesday night in California.

So I will be on-line Tuesday night at 9:01 pm to start looking for clues.

For some reason, I have set my reminder to 9:00 central time. I wonder if I read somewhere that would be when they'd be released.

Quick check & I found this: http://blog.bernat.com/2010/11/17/mystery-afghan-crochet-along-assembly/. As the answer to the When question.

So I should get my clue at 4pm on Wednesday??? Much better than Thursday midnight like I thought it would be!!!!

Well now, don't COUNT on that, because I'm just guessing here.
I'm waiting for clues, just like the rest of you. I'm HOPING that Bernat will do the same as they did last time.

Nope, we're doing it differently!

... But not too differently. The clues will be posted at 10am EST every Wednesday. Hopefully this way we can deal with questions as they're coming in.

[Shandeh]

Smart! That does make sense.

Otherwise, it would be little ol' me, sitting here at midnight....fielding comments and questions until 8 or 9 a.m.

Yikes!

Is anyone else excited to get this started????
