Mindful Fiber: November Winner

**Oh, Y’ALL! I never published this! I was adding tags and noticed the word ‘draft’. (I wrote it December 7)**

Our November winner according to random.org is Comment #44 left by Pam of Northstar Knits! Many congratulations! The yarn and pattern were sent on their way this morning.

Y’all stick around. December is our Grand Finale! While there are many wonderful, fabulous and simply splendid yarns in this world, I feel pretty good about telling you that I saved the best for last.

See you in a weekish for the last of the Mindful Fiber series.

October Winner

One million thanks to everyone who played along! And thank you another million for all of the promotion. Mindful fiber is to raise awareness, and you really helped me out with that this time around.

The Random Number Generator picked lucky number 50! Which means that big congratulations go to Sanguine (you can find her on Ravelry if you’d like to ask what she plans to get)! She’s got a lot of alpaca in her future!

Incidentally, if you are looking at a blend, try the one with Cormo wool. My stars. Unbelievably soft (mine came yesterday).

Everyone else, stay tuned for November! I’ll start that post the moment the yarn arrives – I want the winner to have a chance to make the recommended pattern in time for the holidays. Or a lot of hexipuffs.

March’s Mindful Fiber Winners

So I said to my Random Number Generator, “Pick a number between 1 and 82.”

And she said, “Ninety!”

So I used technology for this one.

Random.org has selected Carla and Michelle as the winners for March! Their Angora Bunny Kits will soon be on the way.

Many thanks to the Bloomingdale Farm angora bunnies and Jeanette for creating such a luscious yarn!

Mindful Fiber will be back in mid-April. Think spring. Think socks.

February’s Mindful Fiber Winner

So at lunch yesterday I said to Ellie, “Pick a number between 1 and 33.”

And Ellie said “SIX.”

So I counted down six comments and our Mindful Fiber winner is Sprite of SpriteWrites! (I’m a long time reader myself – pre-Ellie. That’s about as far back as I can remember these days.)

Many thanks to all of you who entered, and to Deb for providing a home and vocation for all of the creatures at Shady Side Farm. And for providing me with an excess of yarn that I can love without reservation.

Next month: bunnies.

January’s Mindful Fiber: C.C. for the Win!

Thank you so much to everyone who participated in January’s Mindful Fiber Giveaway! And thank you so much to the residents of Farm Genevieve (especially their caretaker, Cassie) for providing an inspirational start to 12 Months of Mindful Fiber.

Our very first fiber winner is C.C.! I’ll be wrapping up that fat, squishy, cuddly Girl Power for the mail box this morning and the Moss Circle Cowl from Jessica will show up in her inbox soon soon soon. Congratulations, C.C. Make something beautiful!

Everyone else, stay in touch! February is coming and with it more Mindful Yarn.

DRT: Unexpected Finish

It’s the craziest thing. Our mail comes around 11:00am. Yesterday, I didn’t manage to get to the mail box until 1:30pm. I had mail. But no Dish Rag Tag boxes.

This morning we went to put the cards in the mailbox and found this:

Hi, Rick!

So either we get mail twice a day or our mail comes at 8 in the morning.

We didn’t even have the camera. It belongs to these folks:

Look!

Congratulations, A-NINE-ILATORS!

I was so astonished, I’m writing this post before we’ve even opened the box. CONGRATULATIONS on Dish Rag Tag Glory!

More at nap time, I had to negotiate with Ellie for a lot of pipecleaners to be able to write this much.
