I’m a spoiled brat!

This past month I’ve been so lucky with winning blog contests I find it mind boggling. Love it. Totally. Yet it all still boggles my mind. First up, long over due blog appreciation goes to Jess. Who’s blog contest I won a bit ago.

What’s all there? A wonderful bump of natural colored merino, some really cool postcards (not showing that well on top of the merino) from pictures taken by Jess herself, a little sheep Pez dispenser (that I know Jess finds surprising that it’s still in the packaging - had to keep it that way until I was able to snap the darn picture), and a skein of Seacoast Handpainted Yarn in a wonderful merino/tencel blend. Her prize also included a $25.00 gift certificate to the Loopy Ewe. Yes! We all know how I hate that place :) So with my loopy money I picked up two skeins of Malabrigo lace and a little Namaste accessories tote.

Thank you so much Jess!

As if that wasn’t enough I also just recently won a blog contest Sarah of Perfect Day Yarns ran.

What we have here is one skein of Beat Sock in Midnight Iris, a Piddleloop Piddly bag, a mini skein of her new Free Verse Sock, some small purple stitchmarkers, and a bag of chocolate peanut clusters.

Thank you so much Sarah!

I’m thinking now might be the time to actually buy a lottery ticket instead of just contemplating what I would do with the winnings from the tickets I never buy. I’m on a roll :)
