When is the magic cut off date for points awarded?
I love a fun challenge!
Hey Teira,
we don’t have a magic cut off date, nor are there any prizes. We just wanted to challenge ourselves. We were hoping to have “guest” projects, feel free to email us ( knittersrumble AT gmail DOT com ) if you would like to submit a post.
Thanks!
Sounds like loads of fun!
