Loops
I wish I could knit. I really do. That's one of those skills that is on my list of Things To Do Before I Turn 40.
And I especially get eager when I look through this site: Loops. It's a knitting boutique based right here in Oklahoma--the real live store offers gorgeous products and classes, but the on-line store is just as interesting.
Their slogan is "Life's Too Short To Knit Ugly Sweaters", and a quick glance through their patterns proves they mean it. This stuff is beautiful. I love this one!
Loops has graciously offered to give away their Three-Way Wrap Kit (The kit includes pattern and yarn - winner supplies their own needles. Color is TBD by Loops)., a retail value of $125. In the words of store owner Shelley,
This is one of the top-selling knitting projects on our site, because it is so easy and stylish. We first saw a wrap with this concept on a customer who purchased it ready-to-wear at Niemann Marcus. We fell in love and came up with our own design. We use a chunky-weight cashmere blend. I had a customer from the U.K. write and tell me she made one for her daughter to keep her shoulders warm while nursing her baby at night and it also makes a great nursing cover-up. Plus, it is super-easy to knit!
Here's how you can win:
:: Visit the Loops site and look around.
:: Come back here and leave comment telling what caught your eye--maybe a particular yarn or pattern?
:: I'll leave the comments open until Monday, 11/26. Then I'll random select one lucky winner.
:: No duplicate comments, please!
THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.

I love to knit. I would love to have this kit! I need a project and some wonderful yarn. I love their chunky stuff. And the Noro. And the cotton. And the...
