Hello all! Welcome to the Hudson Valley Knits Podcast.
News:
Thank you all who offered to test knit the Guardian of Air Shawl! I am thrilled to announce my pattern is now published! For the month of October, half of sales will go to SillyFru’s #Crushthesack fund!
I also drew a name for the pattern give away and the winner is entry 2, Cre8vleigh! Thank you to all who participated!
And now for the details of the KAL. I am calling it the Podcaster Sprinkled With Fru Love KAL and here are all the rules:
- Has to be a Podcaster’s pattern.
- Has to be started after October 6 and completed by December 15th.
- You can use any yarn.
- Entry must use at least 200 yards. You can combine small projects that total 200 or more yards to make 1 entry. This is great if you want to knit some toys!
- Add an extra entry if your project meets the following criteria:
- Yarn is from a Podcaster
- Yarn is donating proceeds to the #Crushthesack fund
- Pattern is donating to #Crushthesack fund
- To get your extra entries just post your picture in the picture thread for every entry you have earned.
See the Chat/Prize thread for a list of all the podcaster designers and dyers I could think of. Please add any I have missed!
