Wow, 5 years?! I can't believe it. What started as a little knitting blog just for fun has stood the test of time. Sometimes posting is light and I don't have much to say but I certainly enjoy sharing and having this record of my creating to look back on.
Of course, your comments are a big part of what encourages and keeps me going. And I want to say THANK YOU to all of you! Five years of blogging deserves a big giveaway for sure!
First, a trip down memory lane.
My very first "sweater", the Minisweater.
A favorite knit, Dinosaurs.
An long unfinished knit that I would most like to see done, Somewhat Cowl (started in 2007! yikes!).
And now, I would like to give away something really good! Since I know that both knitters and sewers read this blog, I am offering you a choice:
A $20 gift certificate to The Loopy Ewe AND a pattern of your choice from Ravelry (it must be gift-able; limit $8).
OR
A $20 gift certificate to Fresh Squeezed Fabrics AND one of my quilt patterns.
All you need to do is leave a comment telling me your preference: the knitters prize or the sewers prize! For an extra entry, post about this giveaway on your blog.
I look forward to hearing from readers new and old alike! The DEADLINE TO ENTER is noon (CST) Thursday, May 5th.

Oh, my preference would be the knitter's prize
happy blogiversary! what a wonderful and generous prize. i would prefer the sewers prize.
i really like your berry and bramble cardi. and i admire that you're still planning to finish something from 2007.
I havent been with you for five years but I do really like your blog! I am a knitter so I would love some new yarn ;-)
Congrats! Five years is quite a milestone in blogging! I'd love the knitter's prize!!
Congrats on FIVE YEARS! That's amazing.
I would love the knitter's prize.
I have an unfinished Somewhat Cowl too. Yikes.
Hi, MLE!! I love your blog and follow it as much as I can. You are even on my blog list on my own blog!!! Thanks for being so inspirational in the crafty department. Everything you make is beautiful.
I would prefer the sewing prize. You may have a knitting project unfinished from 2007, but I'm right there with you on a sewing project from 2005!! Haha!
Keep up the blogging!
Congrats on your fifth year anniversary. It has been a joy to read your blog!
I would prefer the knitting prize.
I'm new to the blogging world, or at least coming back around and I love reading your blog and see all your beautiful projects! Thanks for sharing that with us! I would like the sewing as I'm just now picking up sewing and that will help build up my fabric stash...lol
Congratulations! Keeping up with anything for 5 years is amazing. I would prefer the knitting prize. Thank you
Happy five years! I'd have a hard time deciding between the knitting and sewing, but I guess I'd prefer the knitting prize. :)
Happy 5th bloggyversary! I remember that your blog is one of the first ones that I started to follow regularly. I even have to say that I was thrilled the first time that MLE Knits commented on my own blog ;-) Before I forget, I participate in the Knitters prize of course! Thank you so much for sharing your creations with us! It's always nice to find out that you posted a new post! I hope you continue to blog for many many years!
hmmmm, it's hard to choose, but I think I'd go with the yarn! I stumbled upon your blog a while ago, and it's so fun to see all you make! always an inspiration!

Congrats on 5 years! Your quilt patterns and fabric choice are beautiful.
I would enjoy the sewers' option.
Congrats on the anniversary! Well, I'm a quilter and a knitter....but I think I would like the knitters' option!
Thanks!
Congrats on five years! I've been reading for almost that long.
I would love either prize; I'm a longtime knitter and a new quilter. If I can't have both(!), I'll pick the fabric, to add to my stash, and I've been eyeing your quilt patterns.
What a great giveaway. If I won, I'd love the yarn from loopy Ewe. Your blog is always fun to read, and you've given me the inspiration to get back to making quilts again.
Congratulations on your blogiversary, and thank you for hosting such a generous giveaway! I would prefer the knitters' prize, though I enjoy reading about all of your crafty endeavors.
Wow 5 years, congratulations !!!!
Congratulations on reaching 5 years! I'm still a long way from that number. Have fun and keep it up!
The knitting prize is definitely my choice.
Happy 5 years! Congrats! Hopefully many more. I love the dinosaurs. I think I'd go for the sewing prize since I already have a TON of yarn. I'm decently sure its been multiplying all on its own.
I found your blog because of your beautfiul quilts on flickr. Congrats on 5 years of blogging! (I would love to win the sewer's prize!)
Congratulations on FIVE years of blogging, Emily. That's a nice accomplishment to be proud of. I'm so glad I bumped into your blog so many moons ago. It's such an inspiration.
If I were to win your giveaway, I'd most want the knitters package. Thanks!
Tough to choose! I'll say the knitters prize. Thanks for the generous giveaway!
Wow - time really does fly! Congrats and here's to many more years of crafty sharing! I'm torn on the prizes since I like both equally - so I will leave it up to you! :D

i like to quilt, but i've really been spending much more time with my needles, so i guess it's the knitting one for me if i win. :) thank you and congrats on your blogiversary!!!
Congratulations on five years!
Your quilts are gorgeous so it's a tough choice, but I knit a lot more than I sew so I'd like to enter for the knitting prize, please.
