Hi Knitters,I'm cleaning out big time. Which means if you want to win a big bunch of yarn you are in luck. I am throwing in a sweet little handmade apron in a 4-5 year-old size. I bought this for The Collector and she only wore it once or twice. It has been folded up in a drawer for years so it needs a good press. It is in perfect condition. The Collector isn't much of an apron girl and I'm not either. The apron has two buttons in the back. It is completely adorable and vintage looking and some little girl out there would just love it. It would make a great art smock, too.
Okay, here is the yarn that I will happily pack up and send to you when you win:

Ohhh...I am the first to enter! I never win anything, so I am crossing my fingers...ok, so here is something to make you laugh. "What do you get when you cross a donkey and an onion?" Give up? "well, mostly you get a onion with big ears, but every now and then you get a piece of ass that brings tears to your eyes!" Hope you are laughing!

Wow, I'm first to comment! (maybe because of the time difference - I'm in New Zealand and it's 9am on Sunday morning here). Anyway, you're probably not going to send this all the way to New Zealand but I thought I'd comment anyway and say that I love your site and check it every day. I especially love to knit baby hats but am gradually exploring knitting larger projects too. I love your Taiyo scarf and thought it would make a great gift for my mother-in-law but we can't get that wool here. I'm looking for a good substitute but if I can't find something, I might see if my friend in Japan can send me some.
Anyway, thanks for the great site.
Sarah P in NZ.
How fun! Thanks.

You're probably not going to send this pack all the way to New Zealand but I thought I'd comment anyway and tell you that I love your site and check it every day. I especially love to knit baby hats, which is how I happened upon your designs a few years back, but I am now trying to branch out into bigger projects.
I love your Taiyo scarf and thought it would make a great gift for my mother-in-law but we can't get that yarn here. I'm looking for a good substitute but I love those particular colours so much so might see if I can get my friend in Japan to send me some Taiyo instead.
Anyway, thanks for a great site.

What an awesome giveaway! All that yarn looks fabulous. I could definitely use it to make charity hats. I just love all your work.
Katie in Virginia
Hi Susan,
I love making Itty Bitty hats...all of them! Everyone my age seems to be having babies, which means I get to knit a LOT of hats! They make the perfect shower gift. I just hope I'm not hat'ed out before I start having babies! I'm working on a baby shower stash right now, this yarn would be perfect for it! I also love to bake and have the perfect little girl in mind for the apron that loves to bake cookies with me!
Leanne (Lunatic84 on Rav)
I love these yarns and love making itty bitty hats!
Wow what a great give-away! The yarns look wonderful. I enjoy reading your blog and seeing all the great projects you have going.

What a lovely pile o' yarn. I really enjoy your blog and my little girl would fit that cute apron! I really like all the washcloths you make--I'm a big fan of the handknit washcloth myself. All the best--
Tanya from Pittsbugh
Hi,
What fun this to be involved in this. I love your little hats with the pea pods on them. Thanks for the chance to win.
Hi Susan!! I love all the goodies you have pictured on your blog. I am sad that the summer is coming to an end...I am a teacher and school starts back on the 31st for kids, but their lucky teachers start back on Monday!
Kathleen "IrishKPF"
Auburn, WA
Love your "Itty Bitty Hats" and in particular, the cotton yarns would go to making charity hats for a local group. Your "pea pod hat" is the cutest. Have a good week!
Wow. NOt sure what I would do with all that yarn!!
Something good: We found out today my brother and his wife are having another girl. This means a lot those colors would work great for my new neice. Something funny: This is the #3 baby for them in three and a half years, the other two are girls as well! That apron would be great for them, well as long as they don't fight over it. Surely that wouldn't happen. ;0)
Susan...You are being so generous!! How sweet of you..of course the ol' say..."one man's junk is another man's treasure"!! However the giveaway doesn't look like Junk!! lol
I am also laughing over "Kathleen for Annapolis" joke...got me to giggling!!
Thank you for sharing!
Suzi aka FlFiFilarue
That should make a pile of little hats and booties for the hospital. Thanks for thinking of us when you destash.
Wow!!! Your giveaways are so generous! Many thanks.....hope your kitchen's almost done!
Katie
ooh, I love Tahki yarns. Thanks for the giveaway!
HOLY give away! I absolutely love the colors. I have been knitting a lot of baby stuff lately, so this would be wonderful! Thanks for your generosity!
ooooohh... that would certainly feed my yarn addiction for quite some time! My 4 year old would be all about that apron too! I've only won one other raffle (earlier this year for my other daughter) which probably means that I'm jinxed for this one, but this WI native has just got to give it a try!
BTW, I'm mbridget on ravelry.
Thanks!! Bridget
Looks like some great stuff!!! Fingers crossed :)
Hi Susie - What a treasure trove of goodies and I have the perfect little girly girl for that apron ...... I knit lots of charity hats and this would be awesome!!!

An apron was one of the first things my mom helped me to sew for myself when I was about eight - this one is too sweet! And the yarn is making me drool..

Thanks for doing this and have a wonderful day.
Susan,
I love your blog. I heard you interviewed on Craftsanity a while back and went to your blog from there. You have inspired me to take up knitting and I absolutely love it. i appreciate your energy for life - family creating, exercise, etc. Thanks for all you do.

How fun! The yarn is beautiful!

What a bonanza!! Hmmmm, something funny..... my daughter stopped by on her way out of town this morning. She brought her dog in while she ran around for a few minutes picking up this and that. She was getting already made sandwiches out of the refrigerator when I said to her "Don't forget Bandit!" whereby she walked right by him and got in her car!!!! He sat at the top of stairs looking at her and she sheepishly came back in to pick him up!!! We both had a good laugh
Hi!
I love all of your hat designs! The babies in your books all look so happy wearing them. My next purchase will be the Hoot Hat. Love your creativity!
Jill Pickle
Hi! Entering this for my mom; she'd love to take up knitting but balks at the expense of taking up a new hobby.
(I'm Michelle at Ice Cream Forum, you can just use the contact form if you choose my entry.)
Wow, what an amazing give-away! I am always so shocked by your kindness and generosity. Whoever wins will be so, so lucky! :)
Oh that looks like a wonderful give away, I got a little cousin on the way that would be well covered in knitted baby goodness
I love the apron! My baby girl is only 2 months old, but I would love to see her cooking in the kitchen with me wearing that ; )
She is in Taiwan. We hope to travel to pick her up in November. During the wait, I have made her more baby hats then she can ever wear ; )
Andrea
Dear Susan: I so enjoy your blog. I live in East Texas and we have had such a hot, hot summer and am looking forward to Fall. I enjoy reading about your little girl. My little girl is on her way back to college for her last semester. She graduates in December. Whew! What a journey! Take care.
Always, Gail Crews
I would love to win all that yarn, hats for all the kids. My grandchild would look pretty cute in the apron too. Thanks for the giveaway.
Look at that list! I would love to win all of that gorgeous yarn.
P.S. Now that you're sewing, you just might become an apron kind of girl.
What a beautiful little apron - and loving the yarns. I'm in a yarn slump, and would greatly love that!
New England Katie
Oh wow, so many comments and I never win these things. I love the yarn anyway, and your blog. Thanks for offering the contest!

Renae in Hernando
Susan, what delicious colors and what a generous offering! If I won, I would add some of that cotton to my recent charity-knitting project: preemie hats in honor of my little girl who would have been one yesterday.
What a great giveaway! My daughter would love the apron - she is quite the little cook. And I woud love the yarn!!
Linda in Skowhegan

Maxine in Michigan
This has nothing to do with knitting. I just got an ibert seat for my bike. My 2 year old rides with me now, right up front, and we took a ride tonight. She sang me the theme song from Scooby Doo with the wind in her face. It was Awesome.
I could knit up a whole lot of fun with all that yarn.
oooo...That yarn is calling my name, or more specifically, my kiddos names! That would make a lot of Itty Bitty Hats!....Crossing my fingers!

Love Mel

Our summer is coming to an end, back to school on Monday and I fear I may never have time to knit again...I am excited to meet my new second graders, but sad to leave my own kiddos.
Wowee, that is a lot of yarn to give away! Someone (I'm hoping me) will be a very lucky girl or guy!
Thanks for the great blog, I always love hearing what you're up to.
Melissa (melissabear on Ravelry)
Wow! I am definately thinking of all the baby hats I could knit with that! Hosted a baby shower today for my sister (le Bebe Cafe was the theme) and I gave her a blue and green "sweet pea hat" which I knitted on our vacation this summer. I think it's my new go-to baby gift!
Something good....I went outside today, all day, in what was constantly-passing-by black clouds, to watch my son play soccer in a tournament. It never RAINED on us!!! soooo nice. And it was in the 60's! another so nice, as it's been close to 90 all week (but I'm not one of those people who like the hot).
WHOA!! thatsa lotta yarn to give away! too bad you're not splitting it up for many to win hahaha

Awesome giveaway!! Mini apron's are sooo adorable, it will be sooo sweet on a little one.
Hi Susan! Love your patterns! Love your work! Love your ambition! Cleaning house... sounds like something I can never keep up with! Good luck!
Wit the holidays coming up- that yarn could be put to good use!
Although- I'm not sure if San Antonio has any season besides hot :)
Hi there! I read your blog all the time and just would like to take this moment to say thanks for all that you do! (including this fab give-away!)
You are so sweet! I am starting my list of knitting that I'd like to do and the yarn would be perfect. Crossing my fingers!!
This is definitely a 'want' and not a 'need'. I should be doing the same as you! Hope your heel gets better. I sometimes get PF and it's no fun!!
I love, love, love every skein of yarn you are offering! What a find! My girls LOVE aprons, also. Thanks for such a generous contest!
cutecrochet @ gmail. com
What a sweet apron. My little 4 year old would love - I always call her my collector as well. She is constantly finding "trash" and bringing home to carry around in old gift bags!
I was knitting this morning at my daughter's first soccer game. She's 5 and super excited to play. One of the other little players came up to me and asked what I was doing. My Annette said, oh she's just knitting doesn't your mom knit too!!.
Guess she thinks everyone does.
What a great contest!
I want to share with you a conversation I had not that long ago with my 2 and a half year old son.
ME: "Sean you smell like you have a stinky diaper"
Sean: "No mommy, I smell like bubblegum".
I couldn't stop laughing for a good half hour. It was just too cute. He did have a diaper that needed to be changed.
Kids say the darnedest things. I love it!
I'm Robyn and my email is graphicdesignchick at hotmail dot com.
Oh, I love the apron--makes me dream dreams of my kids being old enough to bake with me. And what a stash of yarn! I'd love to win this.
How generous of you! That is quite the picture of potential fun!

I love checking your blog to see what you are up to, especially on your knitting! I sure hope I win. A girl can NEVER have too much yarn:) And I have a 5 year old and a 3 year old little girl that would love to wear that apron! Happy week to you!
Okay, I'll bite. I can always use more yarny goodness. I enjoy your blog immensely!

I've a new little grand-daughter who would love to make chocolate chip cookies at grandma's house in that apron - and the yarns look as delicious as the cookies will be! Hope I win....
Wow, what a stash!
Loved the post about Allegra as well. I really like the Petite Purls site, and I'm hoping to submit some designs myself, soon!

Ooh! What lovely stash!
Something cute? While I was babysitting a 3.5 year old a couple of weeks ago she was instructing me how to cook the sausage for her supper - make the fire high (gas stove) and then keep turning the sausage over until it's all brown, then cut it into little bites because she can't eat the whole thing at once. Then she instructed me to put a wipeable placemat down on the table because she can be messy when she eats.
Love babysitting her! :)

I must win this yarn because I NEED to make baby mittens. Why? Because at the store today a woman leaned over the stroller to gaze and coo at my beautiful two month old baby girl. And what did my baby do? She lifted up her hand and gave the woman the finger. Seriously. Need mittens.

So I stopped doing needlework for the summer in order to devote time to my garden and to learn preserving and canning.
The garden was slow because we had so much rain and so little sun, but the weather changed and it started to produce.
And then the deer came and ate everything.
Go ahead and laugh, I know I will...later. Some time. :D

Hi Susan! I love reading your blog and seeing what you're up to, and I especially love reading your stories about the Collector. My daughter would love the apron if we won, I'm sure. I also love listening to your podcasts and have been eagerly awaiting your next one (I know you have a lot on your plate now, though!) Your patterns are so sweet- I recently finished the cupcake hat for a gift, and have made several of the sweet pea hats as gifts, too. All have been very well received and they always get lots of compliments. Thanks so much for coming up with such wonderful patterns.

I would LOVE to win your giveaway. I have 3 granddaughters that love the hats I knit from "Itty Bitty Hats". One had so many that she wore a different one for 2 weeks to day care. You are a very talented lady and your designs show it! I live in Quilt City USA but I had rather be knitting!!!!

Wow, what a great stash to win. My hands are having trouble with wool lately so all the cotton would be wonderful. A girl's still got to knit. I love your books. Can't wait for the new one this fall.

Hi Susan,
Fun give-away! Here is something good - I'm teaching a friend to knit and crochet. We are starting with face & dish cloths, so I'd love to share some cotton yarn with her!

OH these yarns would be perfect for baby Sophia, my
granddaughter born on Tuesday August 18, 2009 at 2:20 AM. She lives in Seattle Wa, and the hats I could
make would keep her little head warm and dry, as would the hats I would make for her 14 month old brother. If I could I would send a picture. Her birth makes me a winner! but I sure would love the yarn.So many itty bitty hats and goodies from the book coming out could be made. I am almost finished with
the frog pacifier holder for Sophia. I had made the elephant pacifier holder and the striped elephant for her brother, and shipped them to Seattle, but
someone else along the way is enjoying them ( I hope), they never arrived. :(
Hope I win. I would sneak some of the yarn to make one of the chickens, I was just able to buy the pattern. So exciting.
WOW Thank you so much.
Hey, there! It's just begining to "smell" like fall here in the North Georgia mountains. Luckily I just completed your taiyo reversible scarf in time for the season. Thanks for always making me smile!!!
Love your Itty Bitty Hats - they are my favorite things to make for friends of my daughter who are having babies and for my friends who are expecting grandchildren. Cannot wait to see the new toy book. All that yarn is yummyness waiting to be made into hats!
Sandy in NJ
Well, I could totally use all those yarns, and that apron is adorable. My big girl is turning 4 in a few weeks...
It's good to clear out from time to time, isn't it?
Godspeed on the workload!
Hilary in Michigan
Wow. All of that yarn would make a glorious baby blanket! Thanks for holding the contest!

I have a sweet little great-niece that sure would look cute in that apron! And oh the hats I see in my future if I would chance to win. Oh well.... we'll see! Thanks for all your great posts and even more.... thanks for all the hat patterns. You've been responsible for keeping many a head warm in TN!
Your blog is so much fun to read. I always enjoy reading about The Collector.

Hi,
What a wonderfu giveaway. Here's hoping I'm the winner. The apron would be perfect for my granddaughter named Clover. And the yarn would be wonderful for knitting gifts for my grandchildren and for charity.
Here's hoping....
Janet
I'd love to knit up all that yarn!Kathy
Hello Miss SBA -
I have a darling preemie niece who will be in small sizes for a long, long time. I and her knitting Mama would love this yarn and smock!
Waiting for Itty Bitty Toys, too!

What a generous opportunity with such wonderful yarn, thank you! I may have to make my granddaughters an apron like yours!
Hello, I have crocheted for a long time and am just now knitting more. I love your blog. Have a good day. beefi8@dishmail.net

Love the yarn and the apron - all are beautiful. My first grandchild is expected in December and I'd love to knit some little hats for him. Thanks for having the giveaway!
How fun! The apron is beautiful- perfect touch of girliness. And all that cotton yarn!
Susan, you are sooo generous! I had to wipe the puddle of drool off of my key board! Thanks for the give-aways!
DreWknits in De Pere, WI
Wow what beautiful yarns-I am sure I could make something beautiful for my beautiful grandaughter Emilia-the love of our lives. She already has many of your cute hats-starting with sweet pea which is what we call her. Carol
Hi Susan,
That is a beautiful bundle of yarn! I just love these giveaways. You have so many followers chances are slim but you can't win if you don't play right! Thanks for the opportunity.

Thanks for doing this!

Ohhhh, my granddaughter would adore that apron. She's autistic and is heading back to her second year of special ed pre-school tomorrow. When she started out a year ago, she hardly spoke, although communicated well. Now, well, she talks alot. She still has enunciation issues, but hey, one step at a time! We are all very proud of her.
Wonderful give away.
Hi! I've never left a comment before but your giveawy is so wonderful that I just had to enter! I have loved your blog for many years now and it inspired me to purchase your first two books. I've knitted several projects from them. I love your new yarn and am planning on purchasing some as soon as I can. I have my own blog www.lesliesfiberandglass.blogspot.com. I love creating stain glass projects. Hope to win this but if I don't an early congrats to the winner!
My name is Jodi from Michigan and I'm a yarn-a-holic. (hi, jodi) :) I'd love to win this!
I already showed my 5 year-old the apron and she's jonesing! If we don't win, I'm going to have to go shopping! Fingers crossed, Jeanne in Barnegat, NJ
Your blog is one of my favorite daily reads. Thank you so much for sharing your time, talent and family. That yarn looks yummy!
Wow, I am amazed that you can part with such nice stuff, lucky for us. Thanks :D
What a lovely giveaway! Here's one of my favorite summer recipes that's perfect for using homegrown tomatoes:

It's also a great excuse to go to Madison's wonderful farmer's market.
What a generous giveaway - thank you! If you can give this amount of yarn away, I can't even imagine what the rest of your stash looks like. You should write a post about it. It would be fun to see how much yarn you have collected over the years, how you store/organize it, etc. Maybe an in-depth look at the studio too!
~Jenny
OK, I can't think of any funny little stories to tell you to entice you to chose me. I can tell you I LOVE your yarn, I LOVE your books, I LOVE your patterns. I am anxiously waiting for your new book to arrive. I am a stay-at-home-grammie to 4 little girls and a baby boy due in November. They are 6, 5, 3, & 1. You would really make my day if my name popped up for the "Super-Duper Giveaway".
Did I mention that one of my granddaughters was watching a movie and was assigning her cousins to each of the characters. She turned to me and said, "Grammie, there are 2 fat chickens. Which one would you like to be?" I have learned to never be offended if you aren't gonna do something about it. Out of the mouths of babes.
I NEED THIS GIVEAWAY!!!!

Hi Susan -
I would love to win the new giveaway! I have someone that would look wonderful in the apron and I promise to take a picture of her in it if I win.
I am taking my first spinning lesson on Tuesday. Best regards,

What a great prize!!!...Oh I could make so many hats with it.....Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to win...Ruth, Brampton, ON, Canada
What a great giveaway! That is a lot of great yarn and I could think of lots of things to make with it all. Right now I feel like a walking zombie. I have a four week old baby who did not sleep well last night. Actually, he slept pretty well he just woke a lot for feedings, so I guess it was me who didn't sleep well.
Yum-perfect yarn for Itty Bitty Toys-if I can hang on to it that long! Thanks Susan.
Hi!! You are awesome! Thanks for the giveaway!
Colleen in Millers
Hi, I love your site & all the fabulous things you share with us. I'm a knitter and have learned so much just from reading blogs and watching videos. My 2-1/2 year old is fascinated with anything YARN. I can't wait to teach her when she can actually sit still for longer than 20 seconds.
Thanks for such a fabulous giveaway! Someone sure will be lucky to win.
Cinda
WOW! How lucky we are to have a chance to win an addition to our stash! I have been on a yarn diet since my husband lost his job in Feb so am hoping & praying!! I love your blog and stories about the collector! kimrknits
Oh, this is such a wonderful giveaway and I would love to win, but I just read Barb from MI's story and I think she should be the winner.
Her story made me laugh out loud! Out of the mouth of babes! :)
Yeah for uncluttering! I need to do it - big time. It's so inspiring to see other people doing it.
Looks like a wonderful stash, Susan, and my granddaughter would love the apron!
Judy
My luck has not been good of late so I doubt I shall win your lovely drawing. However, I thoroughly enjoy reading your blogs and look forward to receiving them. I do hope you read all of these posts as I wish to know how to send a little something to YOU! I am one of the many who gave you suggestions on quilting. I manufacturer a product for quilters/sewers/beaders/scrapbookers. I would like to send you one as a thank you for all the pleasure you have given me. Thanks, Laura Field
Can't wait to see who wins this one! Hopefully it will be me!
Noelle in Elkridge
So pretty! Peanut is almost 4, and Pumpkin will be arriving in October, so I'm always knitting!
Wow! What an amazing giveaway...whoever wins this is so very lucky! The apron is adorable, and I'm an 'apron person' and all of the yarn looks wonderful.
Thanks for the chance to win all this yummy yarn! Love your blog and all your creations.

OK...I'll leave something funny. A horse walks into a bar and the bartender says; "Hey, Buddy...
Why the long face?" Ba-dum-bump!!

Susan, I have enjoyed making your baby hats for family and friends for a couple of years now. Just found out my niece is having a girl in Nov and she has placed an order for the "Olive you" hat, so I'm starting that this week. I would love to win your goodie giveaway! ~julie
