And the winner is…

by Cheryl

Lucia is the grand prize winner of the Diva Knitting Challenge.:cheer: She wins the fabulous (I found another ball…there are actually 14!) Jo Sharp wool. I used an excel spreadsheet too keep track of entries and used the random function…the techie version of names in a hat:smile: The final count included 17 entrants and 60 squares. I am amazed how many people decided to participate! To show my thanks, I am going to send a little something to everyone.

Most entries: 20 for Michelle

Runner up drawing: Denise

Second Runner up: Claudia

Everyone else who entered in no particular order: Lori, Bonnie, Julie, Karla,
Angela, Meredith, Rebecca, Janin, Tori, Christina, Lori and Kelly.

I *just* (mailman came) received two entries each from Jessica and Laura.

Thanks again for participating! I can’t make any promises about when I’ll get started on the afghans (you know, Christmas presents and all). I’ll post progress though as soon as I begin.
