Blog Day Afternoon

Every once in a while I check my blog stats to see how many wonderful readers are still reading my ramblings. Usually there are 100 or so of you intrepid souls, but yesterday when I checked the weeks totals I had to blink twice just to make sure the number was correct. It was a little over 500 readers at 8 in the morning!

The day's totals ended up over 1,000 hits - the biggest single day ever!

At first, I thought it was because I had used the work Naked in the title of the post from Sunday. Back in the fall, I had a whole bunch of blog traffic arrived at the blog because I used the words Free Sex (what was I thinking!) in the title. Or it could have been that someone must have posted a link to my blog, so I did a little digging and found that there is a knitting forum named www.knittingparadise.com and there was a link to my blog on it in the "Made In Canada" thread, more specifically to the Phentex Checkerboard Slipper (peashoe) pattern.

So, a hearty welcome to all the Knitting Paradisers out there; I joined this morning and I look forward to participating in your discussions.
