Blogiversary/100th post giveaway!

Today is a very special day! Not only is it my blogiversary (1 year of blogging, never thought I'd get this far), this is also my 100th post (and yes, I have been putting off posting this week so the two occurred together!)

So I though, in celebration of this, I would hold my very first giveaway.

One lucky person will get:
2 balls of Rowan Sienna 4ply. This is a gorgeously silky cotton yarn, in a very pretty shade of blue. It's actually a slightly lighter blue than this photo shows, but because of the lovely sheen to the yarn, it's very hard to photograph.

But that's not all! They will also get:
Sarah Hatton's 10 Simple Cosy Projects book, full of quick and easy knits, but stylish, knits using mainly chunky yarn. This book also has a knitting journal (unused) at the end, to keep track of your projects when you are away from your computer and Ravelry. And even better, it's signed by the author!
So the rules:

Leave a comment on this post to enter. Entries will close at 22:00 GMT on Thursday 23rd February, and I will draw a winner using a random number generator. This is open to everyone, I will ship internationally!

Good luck!

  1. Congrats on your 100th post and a full year of blogging (I love that you saved up posting so that the 2 would coincide, sounds like a good plan to me!)

    Don't put me in the giveaway - I have enough yarn! But I wanted to congratulate you anyway :)

  3. Well done at hitting your 100th post and 1 year of blogging. I don't think I could have planned that even if I'd tried, so I am quite astounded at your forward thinking.

  5. Woo-hoo! I missed both my 100th post and my 1st and 2nd anniversaries....oops.

    I keep thinking that when I hit something like 75 followers or my 3rd year or something like that that I'll do a giveaway. We'll see.

  7. Yay for you (^_^)! It took me 2 years to get to 100 posts. What can I say I started my blog and then promptly forgot about it. Glad you've done much better.

  8. Congratulations for both occasions! It'll probably take me four of five years to get to 100 posts, so I think that's pretty impressive.

  12. I've never knit a Sarah Hatton but I've heard many positive things, and sometimes a simple pattern for a spot of TV knitting is exactly what the Knit Nurse calls for - and the yarn is beautiful!

    Congratulations on your first year of blogging and 100 posts :oD
