Contest Winner

Hi again - Cherry Tree Hill arrived! All 31 colorways - 10 of each which means that 310 skeins are here altogether! And the winner for the Cherry Tree Hill yarn (2 skeins) is Michele from Richmond Hill! Congratulations!

Guess what? I just got a call from Dream in Color and there are lots and lots and lots of worsted weight yarn on the way to me - with Smooshy sock yarn to follow in about 3 weeks. So here's the deal - how many skeins are on the way? If you guess correctly then you will win the Shrug pattern and the yarn in the color of your choice to complete it. Heck - it's my anniversary so let's have some fun!

Somoko is not here yet but we do have a correct guess for that - I won't announce it until the yarn arrives in case anyone wants to keep guessing!

I'm going to guess 50 skeins, because then I might have a hope of getting my hands on at least one!

I'll say 100 skeins. How lucky are you to see it all in one place? :)

Angela said...

Since you said lots and lots and lots, I'll guess a high number. 260 skeins.

Ack! Go away for a day or 2 and miss a contest! Well, I'd better get guessing for this one then, eh? Let's ee, you have a whole BULIDING to stock now, so I'll say 240 skeins.

DIC worsted - 300 and Smooshy - 100. I'm just glad it will be in the store, I've knit with both and they are wonderful yarns :)!

Lessee - it's not clear if we're to make separate guesses for worsted and Smooshy or not, but I suppose I can make two guesses and have the sum count?

DIC worsted: 240
Smooshy: 350

Oooh, I'm a bit slow, but congrats on your new shop and your anniversary! I figured you had been around a lot longer than a year and that I just stumbled onto you later than half the world. =) I'm going to guess 143 skeins. That stuff looks yummy!
