Welcome to our first giveaway! We have only been blogging now for a couple months and were going to wait until we reached 50 followers but are enjoying it so much that we thought we'd have a giveaway!
So both Curlypow and I like to 'make' things when we're not reading. I just learned how to knit last October. After 7 scarves, I went on to make a little stuffed stripey elephant. Curlypow is a bit of an expert at knitting as she has been doing it a bit longer than I have. So to show our appreciation to our followers, we have decided to do something different and have our first giveaway with the theme -
Included in this package are
- One pair of beautiful hand-knit wool socks (Anyone who has a pair of hand-knit socks knows how comfy these are on your feet. You really should give them a try!)

I just love hand knit socks. You are right - they feel divine.
ReplyDeleteAbout Wings, I got it from the library once and didn't get to read it before it went back. I'd love a second chance at it, because it's got a dreamy cover and I've heard good things about it in general. :-)
ReplyDeleteI've never tried hand-knit socks, but they look heavenly. This is such an original contest idea! :D

YOu should know that after we complete the form we can see each others address. Great give away. I don't think I have ever read wings. I commented once before, but I don't think it showed up. I like those knit socks!
ReplyDeleteHi Frantic Mother, You did comment before on a different page, It was a WoW post from a few days ago. Thanks for the heads-up about the form, we'll look into it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Frantic Mother for letting us know about the form. That wasn't supposed to happen. I've fixed it now! :D
ReplyDeleteSure thing. I seen it and I was a little worried. I wanted the knit socks but I didn't want anyone else to see my address..lol.. I know I wont be stacked but I can't be too careful.
ReplyDeleteLove the socks! They look gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI've heard good things about that book, but I haven't picked it up yet.
The socks look VERY comfy! And I love your blog design, mine looked like that once! Wings is a very good book, and I would love to have a US copy!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win!
Hand knitted socks are the best. My mom has a pair, but I can't seem to bum them off her without her whining that I steel her socks xD
ReplyDeleteThe wool socks are the best. A year ago I had none, now I have 5 pairs and I love them all. Good luck in the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to read Wings! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI thought I should tell you I changed my eamil to Auutmn_breezem@hotmail.com The dead line is tomorrow and I hope I won!
ReplyDeleteThanks for entering everyone! I extended the contest to go for one more day. The new deadline is midnight on Friday September 3rd!!
ReplyDeleteI love knitted socks! I'm a knitter, myself, and I've been doing scarfs, hats, socks, and underwear since I've learned how to knit. :P
ReplyDeleteAlso, Aprilynne Pike is so... <3!!
Those socks are gorgeous - love those colors. They look like something out of a Monet painting! Thanks for the chance to win this grat stuff! :)
