MRLR September Yarn-Lover's Contest

 

Ah...September has arrived and my favorite season of the year is almost here: Autumn. :<)

And what better time of year to get back to all kinds of creative pursuits, including yarn crafts.

                          

So for September, I've got a wonderful giveaway, especially for all the kniters, crocheters...and yarn-craft wannabes out there.

Here are the four prizes in this month's contest:

A copy of the designer knitting book: The Ohio Knitting Mills Knitting Book. You can read my full review of this fabulous book here.

                                           

 

Prize number two is a feline-fabulous Mr. Cheddar coffee mug created by artist: Teri Casper from Teri's Painted Daisies.

With the inscription: "Okay, Okay. so I dropped a stitch or two" and signed with Mr. Cheddar's name.

 

 

 I'm lovin' this one and of course, so is the Chedster, who is btw, Teri's fav furry feline nephew!!!

 

 

These one of a kind mugs are already available at Teri's Zazzle store.

 

You can order them with or without Mr. Cheddar's name on them (click for ordering details) whatever your preference.

 

I'm planning to order one soon and it will certainly include the Mr. Cheddar signature!!! ;<)

                                       

 

 

 

The third prize is a gift certificate from Knitting Warehouse for $ 25.

 

 

This is a company I love to order from that I also reviewed here. Excellent prices and service for all your yarn craft needs: yarns, books, accessories....

 

I'm so glad I found out about Knitting Warehouse. My first online stop, when I need another yarn-fix! And that's quite often actually. LOL

 

 

 

 

And to stash all your new yarn goodies in, prize number four is a totebag from BuyGreen.com.

 

 

 

 

I like to have a separate tote for each of my current craft projects. I have one of these big, sturdy totes that I use for crafts and shopping too and I just love it.

 

                                                   

 

One lucky winner will win all four prizes, valued at approximately $80!

This tote bag is a mere sampling of the delights that await all feline-lovers. A great place to visit if you are looking for feline-themed gifts too, that are unique and oh so reasonably priced.
