Plonk, Blip

Do you have a measuring tape? Or some firm, nonstretchy cord and a ruler? Please consider taking a smidge of time today and go to the Knitty blog even if you're not a knitter. Your input about your foot -- and if you have and and can get them, the feet of other people in your house -- is requested so that folks who design socks for this awesome free knitting pattern website can dispense free information about feet to handknit sock designers.

(Disclaimer: I don't work for Knitty at all, I just like the website. All content on Knitty is free, paid for by reasonable advertisements, and all pattern writers are paid a reasonable honorarium and retain copyright to their patterns. A lot of my favorite designers have gotten their first exposures there, sock and otherwise.)

So this is a test post. I've had this account for a couple of years now as a just in case measure but hadn't really set it up. I might fiddle about with settings after this. I'm not yet decided if I'll make this one the primary or what. Currently, I'm not so inclined.
