Hi again, friends,
If you're a regular Make+Do reader, you probably know that I'm a big fan of everything sock monkey. So imagine my delight when I opened a giant box full of sock monkey delights from Patons Yarns last week! The classic Canadian yarn company has put together a collection of sock monkey patterns to knit and crochet, and they decided to share the goodness with us.
This week, you could win the fabulous Patons Sock Monkey gift basket, which includes:
- A copy of "Monkey Business," with 13 patterns for monkeys, accessories and friends
- 6 balls (100g/205 m) of Patons Classic Wool in the colours you need to complete the projects in the pattern booklet
- AND a super-cute little friend to keep you (or someone special) company while you craft:
For your chance to win this basket of monkey business, leave a comment on this post by 11:59 p.m. Sunday, November 8th, telling me: What was the best handmade gift you ever received? I will post the winner here sometime on Monday, November 9th. Good luck!
OH! Wasn't it just minutes ago I was wishing I had something to give each of you? Well, Patons thought of that, too, and they sent me the pattern for the baby monkey (above) to share with you. Stop back here tomorrow for the pattern!
