As I plough my way throught my little socks, I'm beginning to accummulate quite a number of leftover balls of yarn, so just to make life a bit more exciting in the Gingerbread House, I thought I'd organise a little giveaway.
Hurray!
What's in the Advent Sock Kit?
- 24 little balls of sock yarn
- Mostly a wool/nylon mix, one or two little balls of cotton. Each ball weighs between 13 - 18 g (my socks weigh approximately 12g each, so these mini skeins should be enough for a wee sock.)
- 1 hook - 3.5 mm
- 1 set of foam number stickers
- some black card to make the circles
- 24 wooden clothes pegs
I'll compile a list of interested people and put their names into a hat ... And on the 20th August, I'll get one of the unwitting protagonists in my cyberspace life (Mr Gingerbread or my freshly-married Gingerbread Sister, who will be visiting) will pull a name from a hat with a hugely dramatic flourish. After that, it's up to you to get down to work and start churning out your socks in time for Advent!

Wow, what a beautiful giveaway. I will jump in the pot. I must have luck - you will pull the winner one day after my birthday. ;o)
Have a beautiful (Rest-)Day.
Lovely greets,
Annika
I've been subscribed to your blog for several months now
I do not comment often but read every post
and as you no doubt know
a giveaway brings us all to the 'Post a Comment' box.
I LOVE knitting sox 2-at-a-time using one circular needle
haven't been able to knit sox for a number of months -
but just this past week decided it is time to get knitting again
last night was Knit Nite for our group of about a dozen or so gals who love yarn to spend the evening exchanging ideas and projects
your giveaway sounds like a generous offer
thank you for giving me the opportunity to take part.
Hugs & ♥♥♥s,
Gerry
AWESOME! I don't think the first commenter is winner much though... LOL! (((((HUGS))))) sandi

Great giveaway! Sign me up! The sock advent calendar is really a great idea too!
Great idea!
Count me in! I make mini sweaters for Christmas ornaments and gifts, so I should branch out into mini sock land too!!
Count me in. I'm planning to try the sock pattern after my current obligations are finished. I do read your blog as I do lots of others every day or every other day :) Have a Wonderful Weekend!

The only prize draw I've ever won was for a basket of cleaning products. The cosmos was having a little jest that day, obviously.
Fingers crossed that this time I win an item that I will actually use!
This is a very generous thing to do. Thank you.

I must win this giveaway because my kitty, Apollo, loves to play with socks!
I'm usually a silent reader, but this time I have to comment, because this idea is great and I really want my own christmas-sock-calender. Yours looks fabulous!
hope i'm not too late!
Just in time! Am about to print out my list and get the husband to do the drawing!
