It’s time to have a contest! Next Friday, the tenth, is my birthday, and I think that calls for a contest. But as a disclaimer, I’ve never run a contest before, so I am making it up as I go along. My thinking is this: anyone who enters the contest will have the chance to win one of two yarns AND a beaded bracelet or earrings made by me just for them. So, the yarn is the easier part and I’ve chosen from my stash a sock yarn and a mohair yarn that would be great in a scarf.<\/p>\n

The winner will get to choose which yarn she\/he would like. They will also get to tell me if they want a pair of earrings (sterling silver wires) or a bracelet. I’ll find out favorite colors, or if the winner wants to send me a picture of a favorite handknit, I’ll design the piece of jewelry to coordinate (I already do this in my head when I look at all your wonderful handknits on your blogs). Then, I’ll set to work, and send out the yarn with the surprise beaded jewelry. So, to enter, all you need to do is tell me so by leaving a comment or sending me an email (found under my complete profile link). In the comment\/email I would like to know which yarn you would like, because if I get a lot of contestants, then I may make two pools and pick a winner for each yarn. Actually, I have asked M to do the drawing, and I plan to have him pick on the morning of the tenth. So all entries must be received by the end of November 9th (i.e. before midnight of the 10th) Pacific Time. I’m a pretty new blogger, so I don’t yet have a wide readership (that I know of), so the odds of winning are pretty high, so enter! Good Luck!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
