Our Giveaway Winners — and an Eye-Popping Pattern Pick!

Fun stuff today! I’m going to announce the winner of the Sarah Jordan Shawl pattern giveaway!

But, before I do, I wanted to share with you a pattern I came across and just fell in love with because it’s just so whimsical and cool. And best of all, it’s the perfect for one of my favourite things… SpaceCadet Mini-Skeins!

(You know I love patterns like that, right? But, if you’re reading this first thing in the morning, may I suggest a good solid swig of your coffee before you read on. This colourplay is wild.)

I wasn’t lying, was I? It’s a colour explosion! You can see why I took one look at them and thought, Mini-Skeins. And whether you’d choose to knit them just a few inches above your ankle or right the way up to your knee, they change things up every inch or so, so you know that you’d never get bored. I think they’re adorable, fabulous, and so fun, and I just had to share them with you.

(Quick, another gulp of that coffee, ok? There you go. Better now.)

The Winners of the Sarah Jordan Shawl Kit Giveaway

Ok, I know this is what you’ve been waiting for, so let’s get right to it. You’ll remember that a couple of weeks ago, I featured two of Sarah Jordan’s beautiful shawls, Embossed Lines and Margalit, which she’d designed in SpaceCadet yarn. And then she and I decided to make things even more fun by giving away each of the patterns with the yarn it was designed in to two lucky winners. So many of you entered — thank you all so much!

And now, without further ado, let’s announce the winners…

The first pattern is Embossed Lines and comes with a skein of SpaceCadet Lucina yarn in Drizzle.

And the winner is…

Barbara Gibbs

The second pattern is Margalit and comes with a skein of SpaceCadet Aurora yarn in Tickled.

And the winner is…
