My First Giveaway!!!!

Yay! The post I have been waiting for!
To celebrate having blogged for one year (on April 26th) I am having my first giveaway! It took me awhile to decide what to give away, and in the end I had a little bit of help on that! I thought this was a fitting color as it is spring right now. And who doesn't love green? This is a shawlette that I recently knit up. It is made out of 100% worsted weight wool. To be eligible to win this shawl please leave no more than one comment, as well as contact info, at the end of this post.
I included a lot of photos so you have a good idea of what it looks like. Approximate measurements are 45 1/2 by 20 1/2 inches.




Not only can it be worn as a shawl, but it can be worn as a headscarf too.

Another option is as kerchief around the neck.

And last but not least, a view of the shawl laid out flat.


The deadline to enter my giveaway is 12 Noon, May 4th, 2010. Check back to see if you are a winner!
p.s. Many thanks to my lovely model! Couldn't have done it w/out you! :)
Note: This giveaway is now closed. Thanks to all who entered!

  12. It's gorgeous and I am "green" with envy since I only crochet and do not knit and always fall in love with the beautiful know shawls I see online. Generous offer, gorgeous shawlette.

  14. What can I say that hasn't already been said? I like the chevron/leaf-on-stem pattern, and it looks like it would make a nice scarf alternative in the fall and winter.
