Here it is folks…the giveaway I teased you about on Monday!
This is a golden skein from my stash that just never found the right project. It’s a hand painted 435 yard skein of sparkle sock yarn in Cranberry from Across the Yarniverse. I don’t think this dyer is is dying anymore but I knit some socks from another skein of sparkle sock in a light pink that I still have today. Her colors were amaze-balls.
Okay….the knitty gritty so to speak….to win this skein you must:
- Be a follower of this blog
- Leave a comment below and tell me one thing you would knit with this skein
- Include your Ravelry name in the comment so I can PM the winner for shipping details.
- One entry per follower/subscriber
This giveaway will close the evening Friday March 16th at 8 pm or whenever Jellybean finally passes out at bedtime. And I’ll stick the skein into the mail for the lucky winner!
Happy Knitting!!
**its now Friday the 16th and I have picked a winner! Will post the announcement tomorrow in a separate post!**
That’s a beautiful skein of yarn! I think it would have to be knit into something visible so maybe a Hitchhiker or Miss Winkle.

Oh it’s gorgeous! I think it would become comfy socks for cuddly days at home with a matching pair for the Womble 🙂

I would probably choose to make a Lady shawl, like an Ashton or a small version of the Alexandra by Dee O’Keefe. https://www.ravelry.com/stores/dee-okeefe-designs

Congratulations on getting 1,000 followers! That’s so exciting!
I’d probably knit the Purless shawl from Ravelry. It’s a pretty pattern and looks like it would take every precious inch of that gorgeous yarn. My ravelry name is yarnaddict1.
Congratulations on reaching 1,000 followers!
I love that color. Not sure which shawl I’d knit (one of many in my favorites) but definitely a shawl.

I would likely knit socks, and then with the leftovers, some mitts, or just add the extra to my scrap granny square blanket – I think the sparkle would look great with that!
And once again, congrats on 1000 followers! That is pretty amazing. 🙂
I’m dreaming of a cowl in that colour! My Ravelry name is breannecrochets 🙂
I would knit my first pair of socks using needles (instead of a loom) with this pretty yarn.
My Ravelry name is yarntangle.
Thanks for the chance!
That’s so beautiful!! I think I’d have to knit a shawl for my mom, since that’s her favorite color and she does like to dress up when she can. I’ve been itching to knit the Zigzag Diamond Shawl, and the sparkle would be perfect for that. My Ravelry name is bonnyknitsforyou
It’s such a fun colour! Something like that is calling for me to make a shawl of some sort – like asymmetrical because those are my favourites! You can check out my Ravelry at LTerech
Happy to be among your 1,000 followers! I think I’d Knit a pair of striped socks for my youngest son, who asked for red and white stripes. We live in Massachusetts and this cranberry would be perfect. Plus he’s bold enough to sport some sparkles!

Thanks for this sweepstakes. I’m going to connect with all these fellow knitters!

Congratulations on 1000 followers. I would knit a lacy scarf . My Ravelry name is pcollingwood
Gorgeous! I would most definitelymake a pair of socks. For myself. 😂 My ravlery name is tehroach.
This yarn would look lovely knit up in the “Cables down the back” sock pattern by Joji Locatelli. Knitsbywhitsf on Ravelry 😊
I would definitely be making socks, and because of the color they would be for me….

Congrats again on the 1,000 followers! I think I would make a Sockhead Slouch Hat with it. I don’t have a red hat and now that the purple is leaving my hair, red would be perfect! My Ravelry name is ftlsweetie.
I’d knit a hat and gloves to wear around Christmastime. I’m CarrieKnitRun on Ravelry
Definitely a pretty, maybe lacy, shawl. I will be attending a wedding in July so I’ve been looking at patterns and I think that yarn would be fantastic. Congrats on your milestone.

Such a beautiful color! I would knit a headscarf/neckerchief like Reyna on Ravelry, but smaller, because ✨ sparkles ✨ near my face. 🤩 I’m alissahead on Ravelry. Thank you!
