Winners, don't leave your information in the comments here. Please send your mailing address to my email address (listed in the left sidebar) and I'll send things off next week. So start planning how you're going to use your yarn!

I had such a great time reading all of your comments. I really appreciate that a lot of you shared what you would use the yarn for. What could be better than yarn browsing and project dreaming with over 100 online pals? Thanks for making this raffle so much fun everyone!

It's filled with stashy goodness for YOU! I bought a big bag of yarn in NYC and need to make room for it. Add the facts that I've been overcome by the holiday spirit of giving and that they're just little things and you've got a blue blog raffle!

Details: I'll present each little stash nugget in a separate post today. If you're interested in it, leave a comment to that post by midnight on Wednesday. On Thursday, I'll randomly draw a winner for each one and then announce them on Friday. If you only put your name in for items you definitely like, then no one wins something they're not excited about and you've got a better chance at winning the things you really do want. Cool?! Hey, YNBA'ers welcome! Gifting's okay, right? Wink. Wink. And just email me if you need more info on colors or details.
