Hi, Knitters,
I am going to jump right in to the topic at hand today. Anne Vally of Little Skein contacted me a few weeks ago to see if I'd like to host a giveaway for her new Secret Garden Luxe Kit. I thought it might be something you would enjoy hearing about and winning so I said sure!
Here are some links to check out:
Little Skein ~ the website! Anne is no longer selling on Etsy, just littleskein.com.
Anne's kits are always artistic, impressive and thoughtful. She designs and makes some of the items herself and then she enlists the talents of other designers that use all sorts of different mediums. It is always fun and interesting to see what Anne will come up with next. For the Secret Garden Kits she has included a beautiful cabled shawl designed by Alana Dakos of Never Not Knitting. It is an eye catching shawl that really captures the Secret Garden theme. Alana hit it out of the park with this one.
Click here to go to Alana's blog and here to see her other designs!
Today's giveaway prize kit for one lucky winner includes:
- PDF copy of "The Secret Garden" shawl by Alana Dakos
- 2 skeins of Western Sky Knits Magnolia Sock yarn in the colorway of the winner's choice. This is a beautiful, heavy fingering weight, MCN blend yarn -- oh so soft!
- Drawstring project bag in the winner's choice of my new Secret Garden fabrics
- Stitch markers
- Lots of knitting support as the winner knits the shawl: online stitch maps, technique videos, knitalong support, etc.
And you also get to choose your stitch markers. So many choices!
The Luxe Kit is a huge prize valued at $110! Thank you to Anne for this great opportunity.
If you'd like to enter to win a Secret Garden Luxe Kit please leave one comment on this blog post. Your comment must include your Ravelry username or your email address so Anne can get in touch with you to arrange your prize choices and delivery. Please only click on the publish button one time. There is a delay before your comment is published.
I'll be back in a couple of days with a randomly selected winner.
Good luck and let the comments begin! I'll be back soon with much more....
