** This Giveaway is now closed**
Part of my plan for 2014 was to share with you my some of my favorite yarns by indie dyers.Through my explorations of the knitting world, I have been fortunate enough to have found some amazing dyers and designers. The best part is that many have become good friends. Anne of Wooly Wonka Fibers is one of them. Just so happens that Anne has recently released a new book Legendary Knits vol. 2. So why not a combination giveaway?
The skein I will be offerring up is Wooly Wonka Fiber's Ceridwen sock in the color Ensign.
Isn't she a stunner?
Legendary Knits vol. 2 follows along the same lines as it's predecessor in that it is chalked full of beautiful knits. Anne puts it best with her description;
Legendary Knits, Vol. 2 showcases another collection of 8 romantic knits inspired by fairy tales, myths, and legends. Be inspired by wearable garments and accessories with interesting stitch patterns and details, to keep you enchanted while you knit.
Now you see this beautiful blue jacket above? That is the Snow Queen Jacket and I got the pleasure of knitting up the sample that you see here and in the book. Without a doubt one of my most proud knitting accomplishments!
So how can you win this lovely book and yarn? Leave me a comment telling me your favorite colorway in the Wooly Wonka Fibers shop. As always the giveaway is open to international entries as well. The giveaway will close August 9th midnight PST and the winner announced via a blog post on August 10th. One entry per person. Good luck!
How about one more image of the beautiful yarn? And how about another opportunity to win another skein of yarn and this great book? Anne is also having a giveaway on her blog in celebration of her upcoming birthday!! We are having fun now. :)
Have the best day today!
XO,
Andi
My favourite color is Buttercups. I think this pairs very well with Ensign, I see a striped summer lace shawl... maybe with a small touch of Emerald City!

Well, you had me at Ceridwen sock yarn being a Welshman's daughter. And then I saw the Beowulf sweater...I love anything named after a saga! But the colour way I like best is Emerald City. You wouldn't forget a colour like that.

Ooh Black Dahlia looks gorgeous :) , although the Ensign looks a bit like tardis blue which is always cool :D

Beautiful yarn (I need to spend more time on their web site) and I think my favorite colorway is Arianrhod--a very green blue.

Bazinga! Looks great! I love the combination of different shades of pink together with yellow! Wow!

This yarn looks amazing! While I am a huge fan of the Ensign colorway, I have to admit that Bazinga! is my favorite.
You did a wonderful job on the Snow Queen jacket. Was it very hard to knit? I have to admit that I've never knitted a jacket before. :)

I really like the transitional pack in nocturne. It would make a beautiful cowl!

I love the color and the yarn looks so squishy soft!! I would love to give it and the book a home.

I love the color of that yarn! My favorite colorway is probably True Blood, but I really love Bittersweet, too.

It all looks lovely! If I had to choose a favourite it would be Around Midnight on Brigit Lace. It will be interesting to see the other choices. Mia

Thanks for the opportunity.

Dusk is my favourite colour
Posted by: Blossom | 07/20/2014 at 05:15 AM
Oh its got to be Bazinga! for me!!! And "wooly wonka"?? Seriously the BEST name for a company!!! You did a beautiful job on the Snow Queen jacket!
Posted by: helen ridley | 07/20/2014 at 05:36 AM
I love them all but if I had to pick one it would be spice. No seafoam. Wait no thorn apple... maybe I can't pick just one ;-)

Wow! Kudos to you on that gorgeous sweater! I really love the blue you used.

I can't seem to choose between black daliah and dusk, both are stunning. I love the details in Anne's work. Thank you for offering the giveaway :)
Posted by: Pia | 07/20/2014 at 06:25 AM

Bazinga! - Ceridwen
Posted by: maura | 07/20/2014 at 06:26 AM
So hard to choose a favorite! I would have to say Dusk - Ceridian which is a stunning, complex purple. Love it!
