Merry Christmas, friends!

We publish something new on MDK every day of the week, which means in 2017, we will have posted 365 articles—a mix of smart, funny, provocative pieces by our august roster of contributors, as well as deathless literature from us.

For your amusement, we present the year’s most-read MDK posts.

More to come, needless to say. It’s going to be a good year for knitting. We just have a feeling.

  • Merry Christmas, MDK and my fellow knitters everywhere!

  • Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Holidays and wishes for the best New Year ever. MDK makes my life better, so thank you! Hoping 2018 includes another March Mayhem.

  • Merry Christmas to all. A deep thank you to Kay and Ann for one of the best blogs. Every morning I look forward to reading it. Can’t wait to see what comes up in 2018. More March Mayhem? More YOT? More fun, for sure!

  • Merry Christmas to you too! Thank you for another wonderful year. xo

  • Happy Holidays to all! I agree with Dorothea I look forward to you post every morning before I slog off to work. I just wish all those MDK projects were less tempting.

    Here’s to a grand 2018 and happy knitting!

  • What a wonderful year! Thanks MDK, contributors and followers. Merry Christmas y’all!

  • Happy Holidays to all, looking forward to what 2018 may bring on MDK. Thank you Ann and Kay for this great resource and blog. Soooooo enjoyed this year!

  • I’m so thrilled about this Blog d’blogs. As a later arrival to MDK (don’t judge… I got here as fast as I could, I was off directing operas.)
    But once I’d ARRIVED, I was hooked. (No, I don’t crochet, but you get my meaning.)
    I. Love. MDK. And here was a curated collection of things I Missed. Oh, the bliss!!!
    I read this morning, (yesterday was a little busy, but you get that, right?) madly pressing that fab little bookmark icon, which promised return visits to the inspiration within. THANK YOU MDK. You are my Morning first read. (Step aside NYTimes.)

  • My favorite blog for 14 years! Seldom comment but read every day. Thank you for your efforts, your writing, your contributors and your humor! Best wishes to you in the coming year.

  • Thank you for a most delightful fibre friendship. I’m grateful for all the nifty things you open my eyes to… and truly enjoy your daily posts! Thank you for sharing so much with the world. Happy New Year!

  • Merry Christmas MDK! I was happy to get a couple of packages from your shop on Christmas morning. 🙂

  • The writing and humor of Ann and Kay are the best things about this blog and keep me coming back for more and recommending it to my friends. Oh and the discussions about British TV! ) For a change, I’ve just started a new series on Netflix, The Indian Detective. Fabulous!

  • This is one beautiful sight. Will follow for sure.
