Three
It's a magic number. My blog is three years old today. I can't quite think whether it feels like I've had a blog for three minutes or if I always had one. Do you ever feel that way about time? Somehow that first post is forever ago and also yesterday.
Anyway it wouldn't be a good blogiversary without some prizes for t'dear readers would it now? Three years means three prizes in my book and as my destashing efforts have been hurt by my yarn tourism I think I'd better share some stash as prizes and redress the balance a bit. These are all yarns that I'm just not sure what to do with so I hope your imaginations are better than mine.
Excuse the photos from the archives, weathery gloom means these are the best we can get.
1) There are fifteen skeins of this Lana Grossa Piccolo Print, which gives you just under 900 metres of it. It was a gift to me and I've never quite had the vision of what it wants to be.
2) Three skeins of Rowan Plaid, I think this colourway is called Moonwave. I've had fun with this stuff - I've made a scarf, legwarmers and cowl in this so it's time for someone else to love the Plaid.
3) One skein of Manos del Uruguay in colourway 6709 which should be called something like 'An autumn walk'. From the batch of this I had I've made a scarf and a Thorpe.
If you would like the yarn please leave me a comment by say Friday 27th November expressing a preference for the yarn you'd most like - if you're the only one it's yours, if not I'll do a draw for each type. I am happy to send it anywhere. Oh and if you don't want the yarn please wish me a happy blogiversary anyway (even if you've never commented before) won't you? It's nice to know who's out there :o)

I would love to win the Rowan plaid... the colours are fabulous!!
Thanks!
I have to enter my vote for the manos - what a beautiful autumnal mix of colours.
I hope you have many more years of happy blogging. But you've reminded me, I think it might be my blogiversary around November...
Me, I'm into the manos!!
I don't need any more stash(!) so I won't enter the draw, but I always enjoy hearing about your travels and your knitting exploits now that we can't talk about it every Monday morning, so keep it up! x
Speaking of blogthday prizes, I still owe you one! I will email you about it (tomorrow, because I'm about to go to bed tonight!!)
Could you put me in the draw for the Manos please.
Yes, time has a way of playing tricks on the unsuspecting mind!! LOL
I would like the Manos del Uruguay as would most others it seems!!
You are always a source of great joy, may you have many many more blogiversaries! xox
(hee, appears the Manos is quite popular, gorgeous colours!)
Congratulations on three years...I'm so glad to have found you! The yarn is lovely but I have too much already (seriously never thought I'd say that) so passing on my chance to others!
I would love to win the Manos; it looks beautiful!
Thanks
Please don't enter me in the draw as I have too much yarn :)
I'd love it if you could put me in the draw for the Manos. Thanks!
If I won I would love the Rowan plaid :)
I'd love to win the manos - what a gorgeous bunch of colours!
My choice would be the Manos :-)
Happy anniversary.
