A Winner, and Weekly Giveaway #6

Hello, friends! Hope you had a great weekend. It was beautiful and sunny here, perfect for a trip downtown to my new favourite yarn store, The Knit Cafe. I picked up a book I've been looking for for a long time ( Last-Minute Knitted Gifts by Joelle Hoverson) and some beautiful yarn. I've got a new project in mind; I needed something small and portable to carry with me next Saturday on the upcoming TTC Knitalong and I think I've found just the thing. I can't wait to get started. Of course, there is some business to attend to first: this week's winner. Congratulations to... picture-1... Wendy! Wendy is one of many of you who said that your favourite craft for the road is taking pictures to put into albums or on the wall. Wendy, I think you'll get a real kick out of the Unibind PhotoBook Creator Starter Kit and the coupon for two free products (with free shipping) from RocketLife. Keep an eye on your inbox for an email from me. As for Giveaway #6...heads up, knitters! I've got a copy of  Stitch 'n Bitch, a knitting book with attitude, AND six balls of beautiful angora/bamboo yarn from Patons. I've been working on an afghan with this yarn and it's fabulous - I love the bright colours, and the angora/bamboo combo gives this yarn both incredible softness and a lovely sheen. I think you'll enjoy working with it too. For your chance to win, leave a comment on this post telling me what your favourite craft resource is. Do you have a great quilt shop just around the corner? A yarn store with a knit night? Or do you prefer to order your materials/get your instructions online or from magazines?  I'd love to know. As usual, you have until this Friday (June 5) at 5 p.m. to leave your comment; I'll post a winner next Monday, June 8. Good luck!
