Giveaway 3: Yarn

 ~ yarn ~
 Lion Brand Jiffy - a quick and easy mohair look yarn, machine washable and dryable. These four skeins are three ounces each, 85 grams and 135 yards of yarn in each skein. At 540 yards total, there's enough to make someone a lovely shawl or perhaps a child's sweater. One skein has come "undone" but has been wound back around the skein, I seem to remember the entire skein is intact but memory could be wrong. If there is any missing, it's not much and while the color is labeled as "taupe", it's more of a light chocolate brown.

 What you need to know:

  1. I'd love to win this, though I have no idea what I'd make since I'm a newby at knitting and very limited on my crochet knowledge. It just looks really nice!

    How do you know if I mention this in Facebook? I will, but I mean, how will you know? Is there a site there to sign up on?

    I love your blog, and your photos, so much.
