More Prizes!!

A quick review…

Last week we awarded prizes for the Quantity Competitions (nolaboard knit the most small items, thislitlepiggyknits knit the most yards).

This week, we’re hoping to submit things to our Judges (but would really really really like to see some more nominations!).  We plan to send the lists to them tomorrow — so you have one more day to nominate something for one or more of the judged competitions.  We’re also hoping to get a nice set for the Viewers’ Choice Award, but need more nominations before we invite you to vote (hint hint).

While we wait for the judges, we thought we’d fire up the Random Number Generator and award some Raffle Prizes.

Our first end of Season Raffle will be for a Newbie Lace Prize.  We’d like to reward those intrepid knitters who shared their very first forays into lace with all of us.  We had seventeen newbie lace knitters who posted either the start or finish of one of their first three lace objects.  Those seventeen Newbie lace knitters started 23 items between them, and finished over half of them.

WAY TO GO NEWBIES!!!

So… for our first Raffle, just for the Newbies, we have a Lace Knitting DVD from Meg Swansen and Tami at SchoolHouse Press

We’ve got 37 raffle "tickets" (each entrant got one entry for each object she cast on during the Season, and one for each object she finished, up to three of each per entrant).  I sorted the entries by the date of the qualifying post, and fired up my friend the Random Number Generator.  The winning numer is:  17.

And the winning knitter is Priscilla !

Congratulations Priscilla…. contact me with your snail mail address, and I’ll pop this right in the mail for you!

Meanwhile… we hope to run a Raffle every day or so until we run out of prizes.  But don’t worry, we’ve set aside the prizes for the Judged Competitions, and will announce those once the judges have made their rulings.
