Starts: now
End: Sunday, March 9th 11:59pm EST

How do you earn an entry? Put a link to my shop in your next blog post telling people about the shop. You must leave a comment on my blog after you have put up your post. Make sure I have your email address or a way to contact you!

Hi Amanda. I linked your blog and your shop. Your yarn is great. I came here via your e-mail and I read your blog every day. So sad--don't know what yarsn sold Oct. 5.

chanknits said...

Emailed my yarn sold answer to you, and I'm working on my blog post now!

Love the name of the contest!

Anne said...

Very fun contest - and posted in bloglines today! =)

Surviving said...

I just posted about it on my blog as well. I want to buy some more yarn from you. There are just so many good colors, I can't decide which one!

vegasangelbrat said...

Hi Mama! I posted a link and posted my answer, easy- I bought one of them..lol
Fun contest!

Monica said...

Great name for a contest -- caught my attention!! I'm more of a lurker, but I really do like your blog. Contest is up on my blog!

lisa said...

First entry- yarns that sold on 10/5/07
Purlpe Lilac Merino fingering
Basin Blue Merino Superwash: Sportweight

Will have to do the blog entry from home after work!

Rachel said...

Darn you. I'd been so busy the past couple days that I've pretty much forgotten about that yarn in your store. Now it's on my brain and it's a day of poor resolve!

So. I just posted a link on my blog with the contest and shop. I am emailing you shortly with a colorway sold on that day. And very soon, you'll have an order from me (which has nothing to do with the contest I know, but I'm just saying).

Grace Yaskovic said...

Great little contest, its on my blog!!!

km said...

I've been meaning to comment here for awhile. Just added you to my bloglines. I always see you mentioned by Anne and Mary and Nancy and ... And since you're a knitting mama...well, then you're like me. But, there's no snow at my house right now. I'm sure my kids would be climbing the walls if there were. I put a link on my sidebar for your esty shop...and Mary's too. And the yarn...I'll just say NH state flower. Hopefully that doesn't give it away to many.

Georgi said...

Hi NH Mama,

This is a cool idea, and the title is very catchy. I have posted the link to your shop on my blog and posted the name of the yarn that sold on Oct 5, 2007. Your yarn is gorgeous, makes me itch to hold it and knit :-) I will email the yarn that sold.

Thanks, Georgi

I'm busy knitting said...

Your yarns are beautiful. Where do you find the time?

Susan said...

I've put a link on my blog to your etsy shop..........some really beautiful yarn there!!!

Not sure about the 10/5/07 sale but I'd guess Purple Lilac or Garnets and Rubies

Jennifer said...

I sure will. I love the new sock yarns!

AlisonH said...

Let someone else win, it's not my turn, but I happen to have used your yarn yesterday and figure I might as well give you a heads-up that I mentioned it.

KNITSABELLA said...

What a clever contest name! Your shop got a nice shout out in my blog post today, and I emailed you (through Etsy) with the name of the 10-5-07 colorway. Thanks!
