And the winner is...


Sorry about the delay!!!! I had a chance to go to the Sweet 16 basketball tournament in Charlotte with my dad, on no notice and I went. Which put me behind in EVERYTHING! So I apologize for the absence, and making you wait!!

However the winner is Angela from Girly with a Twist and a small prize will be sent to her secret pal too!! I have your addresses, so packages will go out tomorrow - Angela will be getting two skeins of Koigu KPPPM, five cards from the women that I work with, and a set of stitch markers from Alabama Fiber Dreams - her pal will get a set of skull stitch markers and skein of Tofutsies.

This was by far the best contest that we have ever had in PRGE!! 90% participation and everyone had amazing entries. I am so impressed - if I could send everyone a prize, I would!! Our next contest will start on April 7th and go to April 18th - it again will be a contest with your pal, although this time you will know who your pal is! Details will be posted next weekend...

Keep spoiling each other!! Remember to respond to your pal!! And Thanks for playing!

Ravelry


I was playing on line today and was perusing our Ravelry site. There are more people on our PRGE site, then swapping in the exchange. Made me smile, we must be the cool kids...

Happy Knitting!!

contest confusion

I'm a bit confused about the contest... are we supposed to send our favorite songs to our downstream or upstream pal?

CONTEST, CONTEST, CONTEST!!


Its a CONTEST! And you have to play with your pal... The idea is to open some communication between you and your pal - so please, when someone e-mails you, RESPOND!

So punk has always had a music connection - in thinking of two person contest ideas - of course there has to be a music connection!! So I am asking everyone as a secret pal, to send your three favorite punk songs to your pal. (And I am going to ask that you not make your favorite songs TOO obscure - it will be helpful if your pal either knows the songs or can find them to listen to online). If you want to talk back to your pal and ask them why they chose their songs, I am hoping this starts a dialog! The pal who receives the three songs needs to list them on their blog as PRGE contest with a yarn or project that matches the song and a short reasoning as to why the song and the yarn/project are paired. I am hoping for a bunch of creativity with this contest and some photos - its so much more fun to look at blog posts with photos!

I am not sure exactly what the prize will be - I am thinking that the winner will have a couple choices to pick from - including amazing yarn (sock, worsted or bulky), stitch markers and some other fun prizes that jump into the box... All winners will be chosen out of the Shriners hat on March 24th, 2008 by Mr.Sunneshine.

So talk to your pals and have fun with this!! Contest entries should be posted by Saturday, March 22nd, the three songs should be sent to your pal by March 16th! If you don't get the three songs by the end of the day on the 16th - please contact me to follow up!!

And in a PS - I am offering 20% off anything in my etsy shop. If you convo me after purchasing but before paying, I will send you a correct paypal invoice - otherwise, pay with paypal and I will refund your 20% off before shipping.

Thanks and Happy KNitting!!

Discount in my etsy store

I'd love to offer 15% off to all participants in this swap on everything in my store. You need to contact me before your purchase so I can adjust the price for you OR tell me during checkout in the note to seller with your name here. Then I can send you a revised invoice or refund through paypal.

And if you are looking for some special colors, I'd be glad to custom dye some yarn or make some stitch markers for you. Just contact me and I'm sure we can figure something out.

By next week, I will add some punk/goth colorways to my store again
