A while back I started following a wonderful knitting blog “Two sides of the Same Stitch” It’s a tech knitting, fear stomping, educational blog written by 2 women Gwen & Kellie. Designers, teachers, daughters, Mom…. they write dropping nuggets of knitting gold through their blog posts.
Recently Kellie wrote this post asking readers what knitting tricks they used…well from this post they had a drawing and……I won!
I feel like I should talk like a pirate Arrr, look at this booty! A treasure box to be sure..
A sweaters worth of Comfort cotton!
Totally drool worthy..I’d not used it before and plan to be selfish and knit for ME
“The Knit Kit”, which is a self contained package of nearly any tool a knitter would need….a “Fix a stitch”..both of which will be invaluable
A beautiful Shawl Pin…I’ve been looking for one to use with a test knit YEAH!!
This adorable Wacky Woolies Key ring (LOVE)!
It Itches which is a HOOT!
And at the bottom of the box this fun book of crochet designs by Lucinda Guy
Imagine my surprise when I did pick up the book and found even MORE!
This great project bag from Tangled String (perfect for sock knitting) and a beautiful beaded Clover Thread Cutter Pendant
And 2 more smallish clear bags for tools…which will be great to have filled with my new tools, ready in my knitting go bags!
Was I right?
Is this a treasure box or what!
Arrr, Lovely booty!
THANK YOU!!!!
Each will be put to good use!
It be a foine box 'o treasure it be! Thee did good there me heartie! Thee needs to go partake in thy bottle 'o rum! Ohh arr, pieces of eight!
ReplyDeleteIt is a great booty indeed Katie. I love the colour of the cotton.
ReplyDeleteGood thing I am not a jealous type person;) A little envious though!! What a great booty!! Can hardly wait to see what you knit from the cotton.
ReplyDeleteSue, I tell you, I was shocked with the amount there is!
ReplyDeleteTherese! Nice to see you & yes, its a soft Aspen green has a faint bluish cast and i love it. Now to decide what to make
Evy, I think this is the first prize I've won from a knitting site & know I will put everything to good use as it's all drool worthy!
ReplyDeleteOh WOW what a fantastic prize! Lucky, lucky you! What fun you're going to have :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a delight it must have been to open and unpack that box! You will be just the person to put everything to good use! Hooray for you!
