I Want to Be Your Friend

A few days before Great Balls of Yarn closed the doors for the last time I scooped up a bunch of yummy yarns at 50 % off that really need to live somewhere else preferably at your house.

Should you desire to enhance your stash compliments of little old me, than all you need to is:

1. Leave as many comments as you want in the month of June. One comment per post please.

2. Put me in your Ravelry friends for an extra entry in the drawing. 

Rava

I'll announce the winner at the end of the month.

Of course I realize that there are a lot of you who have already added me to your Ravelry friends. So naturally you have one entry in the drawing without doing anything at all.

And if you have not signed up to Ravelry what are you waiting for? It only takes about a week to get in and it's more fun than a barrel of monkeys.

Good luck.

P.S. Please forgive me for not responding to all the sweet comments last week. The schedule of events kept me quite busy.  The good news is that our pack out went very well. But it left me exhausted. We are now in MIL's condo. Lady Gray continues to grow. RB and I are anxious for school to be over. Thursday is his last day. Friday at 8:30 a.m. we move to Key West.

Great contest idea! :)

Hi, I'm glad you joined A Gathering of Lace on Ravelry! I've added you to my friends. Now I can send you birthday wishes on your birthday! Good luck with the move to Key West. It's a great place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there. I'm a redhead and after 18 years in Florida I have the freckles to prove it! Make sure to use your sunscreen every day. I've had skin cancer from all the sun I got over the years.

5.

What a fun contest. I will add you on Ravelry as well. I am neverenough :)

Good Luck with your move.

6.

Good luck moving! I'll add you as a friend on ravelry too :)

7.

Hi, yes, be my friend. I love yarn and love having friends. I am on Ravelry but am not sure how to make you my friend. I am vidisi on Ravelry, I think. I am new to it and not sure about any of it. Have uploaded some of my designs, hope you can take time to look at some of them. I crochet, but I love knitting, want to learn how to do it eventually.

Thanks for your generosity, D

8.

Just found your blog via Ravelry (I'm Busymom over there). I came by for the contest, but I really enjoy what I've read so I'm sure I'll be around again :). God bless.

9.

I have been enjoying your blog for a while now and we are already Rav friends. :)

What a cute idea for a contest. I am doing a contest now too. Come take a look and enter.

10.

Wow, what a cool contest idea! I should totally do this sometime. And I'll put you on my friends, but I warn you I'll take you off if you queue ugly things all the time! (just kidding ... mostly)

11.

I just discovered your blog, and added you to my Ravelry friends. Fun idea!

12.

Greetings from Japan, check out my blog that reports on my (travels with knitting)around the far east

13.

I really enjoyed reading your blog, especially your about me section. I live in Vero Beach so if you ever venture north of the Keys to my area, let me know.

Please enter me in your June giveaway. My ravelry name is chrismomom

14.

Thank you for spurring me on to spending a bit of time on Ravelry :)

15.

What a cool blog, I love the way you write just makes me want to keep on reading. going to add you to my ravelry friends. thanks for the contest can't wait to see who wins.

16.

Added you to my friends. Thought I already had but I guess I hadn't.

Don't worry...we'll always forgive you.

17.

Hi! What a neat contest idea. I feel weird saying, "Gee, I'll friend you cuz you're having a neat contest!" but your blog also looks interesting, so I'll be adding you on Ravelry and going through your projects list over there :-)

18.

Great Balls of Yarn! I heard they were closing two of their stores. I just had to move out of south Florida to Kansas City. Bah! I'm jealous of you moving to Key West! : )

19.

...and I added you in my bloglines blogroll. :)

20.

Does it count that you are already one of my friends in ravelry. Have fun in Key West.

21.

I love your blog. Hope I win. Jill

22.

i added you to my ravelry friends and yeah ravelry is addictive. i am on there all the time between caring for my son and bottles for my son. ive fallen asleep just looking at ravelry pages. so for every comment we add per jpurnal entry is an entry to the contest???

23.

I am impressed when people can give away their yarn! Even if I know I probably will never ever use it - it is so hard to give away! Harder than maybe giving away my first born during those pre- and early-teen years would have been!

24.

I think we're friends already! I'll have to check - I haven't signed in in a while.

PS Ellie is reading blogs with me and says she'll be your friend too. She really says, "urghn ahhh" but I know what she meant.

25.

Thanks for loving to host contests as much as I love to enter them! You are truly generous.

26.

Neat contest idea. I'll add you on rav next time I sign in.

27.

I love contests!

And Ravelry!
