    Oh! I saw your post on the RAK group, what a lovely idea, very festive!

    I would post it on my blog, but no one reads it. So I'll just admire yours. :)

    Turtle sent me! Great great stuff, so pretty! I've never used Malabrigo, so Turtle, you're not alone. I can't afford it now, but someday........

    I'll blog and link to you, too. Thanks, Turtle!

  13. Unknown // January 22, 2009 at 11:23 AM  

    I haven't tried Mmmmm yarn yet, either although I do have a little bit of it to try. Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!

  14. CinderLisa // January 22, 2009 at 12:37 PM

    Ooh. Prizes are fun!

    Clicked over from Rav, so I thought, why not enter?

    My Rav ID is the same as the account I'm posting from. Or just email me at the same @gmail. <3

    Yay valentines!

    Also, I think it's funny that blogger doesn't use reCaptchas.

  16. tripletsmom // January 22, 2009 at 1:16 PM  

    What a lovely Valentines contest! My girls would really enjoy the candy hearts and just maybe I would let each of them pick a cloth too:0). My name on Ravelry is TripletMom. I've got my fingers crossed.

    wow, cute cute prizes! As a single gal, I dread valentine's day. But winning cute prizes on V-day is something that would totally rock!
    And Turtle- you are not the only one who has never knit with Malabrigo. And the cinnamon color is lovely!
