Scallop of the Sea Pattern Giveaway Winner!

Scallop of the Sea by Katie Canavan

October has been one heck of a month. It seems like one or more of our household has had a cold or flu every week. On the plus side, I had a fun trunk show over at Pearl Fiber Arts in downtown Portland. It was so great to meet Bumblebirch fans and find out what people like to knit. Many beautiful skeins went home with loving knitters to become shawls, socks, and special gifts. 

Anyway, it has been busier than busy around here. So, thanks for your patience, fiber lovers, and on to the pattern winner! And the winner is...

Congratulations Tammy! I will contact you shortly with a PDF copy of the Scallop of the Sea Pattern from Holla Knits. Happy stitching!

Holla Knits Giveaway

Today is a very special day: not only do you get to ogle the lovely new patterns from Holla Knits Accessories 2012 collection, but you also have a chance to win a free pattern! Check out these cute, wearable accessories:

Snowball Bonnet by Anna Elliott

Black Swan by Tara Shade

One of the things I love about this collection is that each pattern is shown knitted up in inexpensive yarns, such as KnitPicks, as well as specialty yarns from independent dyers. Even though I dye my own yarn, I definitely love KnitPicks and Cascade for some projects. So no matter what you've got in your stash, these accessories can work for you.

Knight Service by Teresa Gregorio

Multiplicity by Allyson Dykhuizen

Wallpaper Cowl by Emma Welford

Each design has sweet details that really make it unique: fun texture, a pop of graphic color, or smart reinforcing. You can read more about the patterns and designers here at Holla Knits.
