3rd Anniversary Blog Giveaway

Hello to all of my lovely fellow blogging chums. As you will see from the title of this post I have been wittering bestowing my wisdom and wit on this here site for three years this week.

Only fair to organise a little giveaway I thought. So with apologies for the pics, (I must blame failing light at this time of day and season). Here goes.






So the top image shows the giveaway prize in total. 2 x 50g balls of 100% pure Alpaca yarn, made in Peru. Only the best for you lot.
A pattern for some delightful fingerless mitts and various flowers and leaves, in case you can't think what to make with the yarn.
6 x pretty crochet hooks. Plus as a random afterthought, a small perfectly formed nodding doggie.

There you have it. Should you be so inclined to enter the giveaway, you will need to be a Google Friend Connect Follower and leave a comment on any of my posts this week.
Yes this is partly a ruse on my part to increase my listed followers. (Hundreds of lovely peeps visit my site so I know you're out there).

For every comment you make you will get one entry, so more comments more chances.

I will pick a name out of the proverbial titfer Sunday night.

I'm very happy to send the parcel anywhere in the world, so this giveaway is open to everyone.

I'll be back tomorrow with a 'proper' post about my exciting weekend. I know, you can't wait.
