Big, huge, enormous and unending thanks to everyone who sent a cover, I'm amazed by your generosity, and mom is so thrilled with her cover wardrobe--especially now that the weather is cooling off and she'll be able to wear them! (Even cotton is uncomfortable during a hot, humid Baltimore summer)


And now, prizes!

Wheeee!

Wooohoooo!

I have 4 of them to give away, so let's get started.

Betty was kind enough to donate a prize, this gorgeous skein of Stonehedge Fiber Mill Shepherd's Wool, 250yds worsted weight , in the Blue Spruce colorway:

And this is going to LINDA!

Leann at Forbidden Woolery also donated a prize, a skein of her aptly named Gluttony sportweight yarn, in the Forever in Blue Jeans colorway:

(Leann actually sent me 2 skeins of this yarn, 1 for me to use in a project, and one to give away; it was really hard to choose which to keep!)

This gorgeous skein is going to none other than BETTY!

Deirdre from the Confessions of a Clumsy Knitter blog donated a prize as well, a kit from A Verb for Keeping Warm. This kit includes the High Road pattern, and a beautiful skein of yarn to complete it.

The lucky winner of this kit is CARRIE!

And finally.

The moment you've all been waiting for.

The Wollmeise.

Cue chorus of angels

This skein comes with a sock pattern of the winner's choosing (provided I can gift it to you through Ravelry!).

And that winner is . . . .

And that's it! Thanks again to everyone who participated, donated prizes and generally thought good thoughts for my mom. Winners, please contact me through Ravelry (mediaperuana) or send me an email at kristen.jancuk at gmail so I can get your addresses and send out your prizes.

Now we'll be back to our regularly scheduled blogging--I dyed yarn this weekend, and I can't wait to tell you all about it!
