My Gain Could Be Your Gain!

In other words, it's a Giveaway! I've been threatening to clean out my yarn closet for a while now, and today is the day. I was up early, took everything out of the closet à la Marie Kondo, did a preliminary weeding of clothing and yarn (this closet is also where I store off-season clothes) and now I'm starting the delicate process of choosing what to put back. I came across this yarn, hemmed and hawed about whether it went in the keep or donate pile, and thought a giveaway would be ideal.

Here are four skeins of Hedgehog Fibres Skinny Singles, 100 grams/366 meters (400 yards), 100% merino, in a Potluck color. I fell in love after seeing them on Instagram and had to have them. Now they just don't spark joy, so if you are interested, please leave a comment on this post by next Friday, Sept. 20th at 5 pm EST. I'll draw names randomly from a hat and let the winner know by email. 

I hope someone would like this yarn as I think it deserves to be knit into something lovely, but I don't think it will ever be me. I gain space to keep four other skeins of yarn, and you gain some beautiful yarn! Good luck!

    Oh my goodness -- that is beautiful yarn and in my favorite colors, too! I have one lone skein of HHF in my stash (I won it in a giveaway) but have done nothing more than fondle it so far. I certainly have no need of more yarn, but this is so beautiful that I can't resist putting my name in the hat.

    How generous, Bonny. Don't enter me into the giveaway (although it is lovely yarn) because my yarn stash is much too large at present. I need to do some weeding out myself. Maybe you have inspired me!

    Oh Wow - that is GORGEOUS yarn. BUT, please do not add my name to the list...I have way too much as it is (and you know I'll buy more when I'm on vacation in a couple of weeks anyway -- lol).

    That is beautiful yarn. I can see it being a Reyna, which I've already made in the color Bad Apple. Are you sure you want to part with it and not just ask us for knitting suggestions for yourself? If you're sure, then please enter me.

      I'm sure that this yarn will be better suited to another knitter, so I'm glad to part with it. Reyna is a great suggestion, and you are entered into the drawing!

    It looks like your lovely yarn will soon find a new, joy-filled home! (But not to me. . . because I have way too much yarn as it is!) :-)
