This past week has been a blur of snow days, meetings, school delays and working on taxes, and YIKES, I haven’t updated this blog with the winner of my drawing from my last post. The results are in, and the winner is Andrea , who is knitsandknots on etsy.com, where she sells some really cute knitting patterns for baby items, and who blogs here: http://knitsandknotsweb.blogspot.com/. Congratulations, Andrea ! I’ll be sending you an e-mail so I can find out if you prefer the yarn or spinning batt, and get your address. (The picture is of the yarn: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=17982819)

The boxes look awesome!! I need to think of something I could contribute in the future. How much do they cost? Oh! I spun the roving I got from you (autumn colors) last night to a fingering weight yarn……..it’s gorgeous. I’ll get pictures soon. Had a great time yesterday!!!!
