I won yarn from Kayla! That’s 1200 yards of hand-dyed, 100% fingering weight yarn. I’ve actually never worked with fingering weight yarn before, so I’m very excited.
Kayla hosted the contest on her blog, The Yarn Bearer. All she required was a comment with what you would make from this skein. I chose the Celestine Crochet, which looks like a spiky ball. If I like the pattern enough I’ll try the knitted version, too.
I plan to start crocheting just as soon as I wind this hank into a ball. I’m a bit scared about tangles from Angela‘s experience, but I think I’ll take her advice and hang the yarn off the end of a chair.
Thanks again, Kayla, for the beautiful yarn!
Congrats! Gorgeous yarn.
This is really pretty yarn, I love it. So lucky that you won! Isn’t that something that just makes your day? Can’t wait to see what you make out of it.
Oooh that is so pretty! I bet whatever you make with it will be awesome!
Love that yarn the colors are nice. :)Congrats
Congrats on the win! Looks very petable! (word?)
Oooh, very pretty yarn! Lucky you! : ) That crocheted ball looks like it would make a great baby gift, as well (- babies love textured, shaped toys), but in a non-fuzzy cotton (since babies also stick everything in their mouths).
Hi! I’m glad you got the yarn, but my name is Kayla, not Amy! I hope your projects works out, let me know when you finish.
Congrats! It looks like it’ll be wonderful to work with.
Congrats!! That is an interesting pattern choice you have made for the yarn. I have it queued, to make several as gifts, as soon as I foind suitable stuffing material. That is one reason I miss WalMart, they sold the polyfill stuffing.
the yarn is beautiful…
BTW, thank you so very much for reading my curly girl’s blog and commenting. It means so much to her and I appreciate people supporting a future ‘crafter of America!’
oooooooo…just went and HAD to print the celestial crochet to try myself……….too interesting!
Gorgeous yarn! Nice prize.
Beautiful yarn. I bet it crochets up nicely.
i have many yarns but not like this
