KnitSimple Holiday 2012 Textured Pillow Shams Giveaway
We recently received the KnitSimple Holiday 2012 issue in the store. It includes many wonderful patterns for gift-giving including several that use our very own Valley Yarns line.
Our favorite is the Textures Pillow Shams. I love the way the cables pop in Berkshire Bulky. They would look fantastic on a couch or bed and would be a perfect gift for someone spending their first holiday in a new home.
We’re giving away the yarn and needles required to make the shams as well as a copy of this magazine. Just leave a comment with your favorite way to warm up as the weather cools down. You have until Monday, October 8th at 9:00AM EDT. One winner will be chosen at random.
Check out KnitSimple Holiday 2012 and find lots of great inspiration for all of the people on your list.
Her favorite color: bright pink

A soft hand knit shawl around my shoulders, afghan over my legs with socks on my feet, nice cup of coffee or tea, a good audio book playing and knitting in my hands makes me smile.
