I am wondering if there is some issue with your browser on your computer because every single clue was posted at 7am PST on Sunday morning throughout the KAL. Perhaps your browser isn't refreshing the page each time you visit the site?

The timing on these clues has been a little sporadic.Jan Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11488507927897899839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2274338570144827085.post-56071558645369927312014-02-02T03:30:50.356-08:002014-02-02T03:30:50.356-08:00I have finished this week and only have about 50 y...I have finished this week and only have about 50 yards of yarn left. There are still 4 weeks left on this season of Downton Abbey. Was this test knitted? I visited the Ravelry group and it seems others are also running out of yarn. I don't want to invest another $25 in this project and don't want to add another yarn color because I don't absolutely love it. I guess I will just frog. What a waste of my time. Very disappointed in the way this KAL was run. I also looked on the project pages on Ravelry and many have frogged and been unhappy with this KAL. This should not have happened when I bought the yarn called for in the pattern by JBW. My gauge and stitch count is right so it's not me. Just wanted JBW to know they have another dissatisfied customer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2274338570144827085.post-35364962284779201882014-01-27T12:13:04.620-08:002014-01-27T12:13:04.620-08:00Breathing life- that is really interesting!

So neat!<br /><br />Also, thanks everyone for noticing the stitches. You are right, it doesn't really matter which order it's done in as long as it's switched up for Row 2. I'll swap it to match the first post for consistency's sake. Thanks!<br /><br />KristenKristenJBWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06202144493292028555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2274338570144827085.post-15052272249125295162014-01-27T09:25:27.112-08:002014-01-27T09:25:27.112-08:00I learned yesterday that the correct spelling is b...I learned yesterday that the correct spelling is bated breath. It comes from shakespeare , merchant of venice, and means abated breath, or breath that is held. The baited breath is a mis-spelling and mis-understanding of the original phrase. Cool eh? I love language and looking up the origin of phrases and words.
