Yep. THE Stephanie from Adventures in Babywearing, she knit a scarf for me to give away to one lucky winner. And I don’t mean to freak you out or anything but I probably wore it around the house for a little while because I couldn’t handle the cuteness of this scarf. It was taunting me with all of it’s awesomeness.
So, if you win. I’m sorry. I couldn’t help it.
You don’t blame me, right?

Oh, I’ve dabbled in every hobby. I need time and money.
First and foremost would be photography – you can’t beat capturing life like that, imo.
I love scrapbooking too…and would love to have the time to explore that creative outlet.
I’ve never tried knitting, but I always wish I knew how.
But, if I had to pick ONE hobby to be fantastic at? Photography. Fo sho’
Yay Stephanie! I really want to learn more about photography, I am light years ahead of my first point and shoot but I REALLY want a SLR now and want to learn more. I love to scrapbook but I never have time, unfortunately, and I am probably moving more toward digital scrapbooking now because it’s easier to do in small pieces. I would like to learn how to use InDesign to do that!
That scarf is beautiful!! I knit right now but I’d like to be better at it. And I’d like to learn how to crochet too
Now that I’ve got this photography thing under control, someday I will learn to crochet.
I have started so many hobbies over the years, but the one I feel most bad about not continuing is quilting. I started a quilt for my son and in his closet it sits, in pieces. I should really get to that…

I really wish that I could garden. I do plant some annuals every spring but by 4th of July, my gardens are a mess. I would love to be a better photographer too and actually know how to use my DSLR!
I’m really trying to get into photography since I bought my Canon Rebel Xsi! Slowly learning all the features and such but I doubt I will ever be as good as you are!
I would definitely love to improve my photography skills – specifically learning how to use all those features on my SLR camera. And, I would LOVE to learn how to knit…someday…
If I could have any hobby, it would be knitting. I just can’t wrap my mind around it. Or painting. I seem to have a problem with my hands making things. I can be a photographer and push a button, framing with my eye, but I can’t make things with my hands and that makes me sad.
Some day I would love to raise my own chickens, both for the eggs and the meat! and I would also love to have the patience for knitting!
i’m currently learning to knit! only beginning, so… nothing fancy yet. photography is my hobby now but one day i would really like to be a pro pie baker!
I would really love to learn how to do wood working. Everything from designing, to building, to finishing (I use finishing in two contexts here) anything made from wood.
I would love to learn more about photography AND knitting…if only I had all the time in the world.

If I could do any hobby – it might be jewelery making. I have tired it and I do not have the patience for it at all. I could save a lot of money IF I could do it! Oh and hand stamped jewelery would be the route I would want to take.
I want to learn to knit or crochet and I want to learn applique (to add to my quilts) and embroidery for the same reason. Knitting and crocheting would be so much cheaper and faster than quilting by hand! And there is this adorable little shop in our town called The Whole Nine Yarns and that alone is enough reason to go in!
I would love to know how to sew…better. I have a mountain of clothes that need hemmed, mended, whatever. But thats not what i mean. I want to be creative. To make cute outfits for my little girl. To make matching curtains and pillows. To make beautiful, brightly colored quilts. Thats what i would wish for…
I would love to be able to paint. Not like painting walls in my home but art. Beautiful artistic painting with meaning. Seeing as how I don’t have an artistic bone in my body, should I ever get the opportunity to pick up a hobby it would most likely be knitting or crocheting.
I would love to be able to knit. I even have the needles and knitting for dummies book but not the extra hand I need to make it work.
I’m a full-time teacher, so there’s no way I could possibly spend time on all the hobbies I’d like to learn (of which there are THOUSANDS), but photography and sewing are at the top of the list. Think of the money I could save if I made my own curtains, napkins, dishtowels, whatever!
I love sewing but being back in school has taken it’s toll on the schedule.
Love the scarf Steph!
What a beautiful scarf – love the color!
I want to learn to sew. I got a machine for Christmas several years ago and, sadly, it’s only been used once. By a friend of mine
I’m lucky in that my partner got me sewing classes at a local shop for Solstice this year. I’m so excited! 5 hours of instruction over two nights later this month. Yay! I’m hoping it gets me off to a strong start.
I’d pick photography (again since it’s already my hobby). It’s totally the perfect hobby for me.
Hmmm…if I could learn any hobby…I think it is a 3 way tie between sewing, knitting and crocheting. I am left handed and my Mom is right handed, so it was hard for her to teach me those things.
Probably something crafty like knitting or cross-stitch or crochet. Just have never had the patience to learn.
Posted about these giveaways on my blog!!
I got a sewing machine for Christmas, made 1 (very sloppy) thing and now I’m hooked!!!
The hobby I most want to start/learn is gardening. I’m hoping to be growing my own veggies this spring/summer!
The hobby I would like to learn most right now (even though I have like a million others already) is jewelry making. I have so many great ideas in my head, I just need to learn how to make them reality.
Hobby I want to learn? It’s a toss-up. I definitely want to be a better photographer but would love to garden and have pretty flowers and grow my own veggies. I tend to kill green things.

I’d learn to sew. Which I plan on doing. I got a sewing machine for Christmas but so far I’ve been scared of failing and haven’t taken it out of the box…maybe today.
Oh I would love to win a scarf made by Stephanie! I wish she would sell her stuff…I wouldn’t mind if there was a button added to hide an imperfection!
I know how to knit but I’m not very good. When Stephanie says she knits while watching TV online I get jealous…my knitting takes every ounce of my concentration!
I love that scarf. Hmmm I would love to be better at gardening. We have a large yard and it is always a mess, I would love to make it more beautiful. I would also love love to grow some vegetables and herbs. I’ve tried studying up on the subject and I always get overwhelmed. Thanks for hosting the contest!
I am currently taking a photography class to improve and learn how to better use my camera.
But, if I could learn any hobby it would be knitting. Not sure why, but I’ve tried several times and just cannot get it. My mom has tried to teach me, but each time it is an utter fail. My brain just doesn’t get it.
I would love to win since I have no chance of ever being able to create a homemade scarf myself.
I would like to just know how to use the different speeds on my camera! I love to take pictures. But, I would also like to learn how to dance.
maybe knitting. then, I could make my own newborn props! they can get really expensive on etsy.
I wish I could knit/crochet. So many beautiful things could be made! But I haven’t had the patience or time to figure it out. Hopefully some day.
I’d also like to be able to take great pictures. I always see things when I’m driving and think “Wow, that’d be an awesome picture!” But I don’t even have a working camera.
Dropped it on the cement and haven’t had the extra funds to fix or replace it. Super boo.
Just tweeted.

I would love to learn how to sew! I would enjoy making cute little dresses for my baby girl!
if not for the cost i’d love to learn to scrapbook. i’ve seen other people’s and they are gorgeous and a great way to save memories.
I wrote a blog post about the give-away. Hope you don’t mind that I used your picture.

Photography! And it looks like I just might, since my darling husband bought me an amazing camera. And I am clueless…but hopefully that will change soon.
Oh, how I wish I could really sew.
Pretty scarf! I would love to learn how to sew. My dream is to have a shop on Etsy!
Would love photography
Thanks to Stephanie for making the scarf for your giveaway!
I would love to learn to make pottery on a wheel!
First off photography, then scrapbooking…I want to be able to do something with all those pictures!!
I’d love to learn to sew.
