Winter Blues Giveaway!

Is getting ready for Christmas stressing you out?  Is it cold and snowy and you haven't left the house in a week?  Are the days getting shorter and shorter and you're missing the sunlight?  What better way to get cheered up than with a giveaway!

I'm going to offer 3 different prizes and one of them is an actual knitted item.  Knit by yours truly. 

#1 Doodlebirds Creations Swell Socks in Beach Vacation and free pattern.

You might not be able to go to the beach but maybe you can pretend with socks knit in this colorway.  Super soft with a bit of a sheen.  This is one of my favorite sock yarns.

Sock weight yarn, about 400 yds/4 oz.  50% Merino wool, 50% Tencel.  Retails for $20

#2 Beautiful Blue Faced Leicester, Bubble Gum Bliss and free pattern.

Not one but two skeins of this super soft wool and a matching trim skein.  Perfect to make a pair of Adorabubble Baby Britches or Sideways Longies.  You might even have enough left over for a matching hat.

Worsted weight, 240 yds/4 oz, 100% Blue Faced Leicester.  Retails for $17 a full skein and $10 for trim skein for a total of $44.

#3 Turtle Butt and Matching Hat

An already knit item hand knit by moi!  Knit in x-small, should fit a newborn through 6 months.  These make a great photo prop.  Knit out of 100% wool, these do need to be handwashed.  These are perfect for wool cloth diaper covers.

Retail value: Hmm, I don't even remember what I used to charge to knit a turtle butt and matching hat.  Priceless?

3 winners will be chosen. First one chosen gets first pick and so on and so forth.  Have fun and good luck!
