Congratulations to our prize winners! *claps* If you are a prize winner, I will send you a direct message on Twitter so we can arrange to get your prize shipped to you. You'll have one week to claim your prize.
Here's what was won!
The Grand Prize: Rainbow Denise Interchangeable Needle Set
The grand prize is a set of our very own custom dyed rainbow Denise Interchangeable needles. Amy worked out a super-duper top-secret method for coloring the needles and we sold dozens of these in our online shop. We're no longer coloring them or selling them, so this is a one of a kind prize! A KnittingHelp.com collectible, if you will. One lucky winner will receive this grand prize.
And some nifty consolation prizes
There can only be one grand prize, but we are also giving away a handful of fun consolation prizes to five lucky winners.
Silk Taffeta Bags
Taffeta silk, in shimmering colors. What an elegant way to tote your project around! Light enough to dangle from the wrist comfortably, and keep your yarn within knitting reach at all times. Perfectly sized to hold a small project (the three bags in the foreground are the small size). We'll be giving away one bag to three winners. We have a limited selection of these on hand, so we can't guarantee a specific color. But they are all very beautiful.
Sheep Tape Measure

A sheep for your knitting bag! So adorable, and completely practical. Pull on the tail to release a tape measure. Squeeze the wooly belly to retract it. We'll be giving away one sheep tape measure.
Bumblebee Tape Measure

Pull on his stinger to release the tape measure. Squeeze his belly to retract it. Charming! And of course, practical. We'll be giving away one bumblebee tape measure.
The contest deadline
The contest starts on Sunday January 3rd, 2010 and will run a week until midnight January 10th, 2010 (EST). To be eligible, you must enter the contest during these times. We will select our winners on Monday and will post the details on this page. Winners will also be contacted directly via Twitter so we can get your shipping address.
All the usual contest legal mumbo-jumbo applies. Void where prohibited, yada, yada. Prizes will be shipped via the most affordable method. All winners have a week to let us know where they want their prizes shipped. You can only win once per contest. If you don't win this time around, don't fret. We'll probably hold another contest before the winter is out.
