Summer is here. Flowers are blooming. I am making headway on my To-Do list. I love my job. People who work with fiber make me happy. It’s Friday. You choose the reason, if you want. But really, I just wanted to give a little something back…

8oz ounces of Merino/Cashmere in the ‘Pasch’ colourway is up for grabs!

All I ask is that you do one thing…

Leave one comment with the names of your favorite podcasts and (this is optional) leave them a comment and/or star rating on iTunes.

Easy peasy! On Tuesday morning at 10:00am EDT I will close comments and using the Random Number Generator pick and announce a winner!

ETA: If you do not listen to – or watch podcasts, no worries, please just leave a comment. Any comment will do!

So, what do the two coordinated items featured in the picture below have in common? Well…

93009 Give-Away

They will soon belong to one lucky winner!  Yep, both of them!

The batt: 4oz 56′s Falkland Wool batt from Into The Whirled
The bag: Crafted  by the fabulous Stitched by JessaLu

Why?

There are so many reasons why, but the most important of them all is simply because I wanted to give something back. Starting this venture has been one of the most exciting and rewarding things I have done to date and it is my turn to show my appreciation for the people who make it what it is. And lets be honest, I get something here too. Your feedback and word of mouth are by far the best advertisement I could ever ask for!

So, how does one get a chance at winning this fabulous coordinated give away?! Most importantly – No purchase is required, and you can have multiple chances to win! Here is the breakdown on how to gain those entries:

1) Visit the shops and find something that strikes your fancy (new or sold) and comment on this post before Midnight on Friday October the 2nd.

2) Blog about the giveaway and send your friends; just be sure they name you as their source – each time someone mentions your name in their comment – both of you gain another entry.

3) Tweet a link to this post or the shop and include #itw or #intothewhirled. Two tweets per day are permitted.

4) Help spread the word on Ravelry – just be sure to come back here and let me know!

5) Join the Into The Whirled group on Ravelry. Every memeber of the ITW group will be counted as an entry.

6) Join the Stiched by JessaLu group on Ravelry. Every member of the SbJL group will be counted as an entry.

So there you have it!

Using a random number generator I will pick the winning name and announce the the winner on Monday October the 5th.


ETA: Comments are now closed!!

Time to tally all comments, tweets, blog posts, face-book entries, Ravelry comments and group memberships. See you Monday!!

I needed to take a break from the multitude of projects I am working on to share with (perhaps even taunt) you with a photo of my contribution to the September Phat Fiber Sampler:

SeptPFSampler

For those of you not familiar with the Phat Fiber Sampler you might want to take a quick look at this POST – then sign up HERE to receive Email notification of the exact date and times the box is posted for sale on ETSY. Oh, and if you like free stuff – and I mean really incredible indie crafted free stuff; be sure to add the Phat Fiber Blog to your blog reader!

Did you really think I would post a colour picture of the contribution?! I will offer these tidbits…

Each sample  is .50 ounces of 64′s Merino wool top handpainted in a never released colourway named ‘Minotaur’. In addition to the 50 samples shipping to PF-HQ I will be sending a 4 ounce carded batt (in the same colourway) for the blog giveaway!
