Coats & Clark Donation

How about a whole set of Susan Bates straight needles?

Congratulations, Lise Wilson, for winning this great door prize (it was paired with an Elmer Pigsah donation)

KnitPicks. com Donation

When we received a set of the nickle plated Options needles from KnitPicks.com as a door prize, we were floored!

We were also very excited to be able to give each attendee a View Sizer in the goodie bag.

The needles door prize draw was one that many people wanted their number to be called.

Congratulations goes to Sherry Moffia (who must be the luckiest woman alive!) It's nice to know that this set went to a very new knitter who didn't own many needles.

PieKnits.com Donation

Many thanks to Jennifer Tallapaneni of PieKnits.com for her generous donations!

Each person attending received a 10% off coupon for her store in the goodie bag.

Plus, she gave us a $25 Gift Certificate for her store.

Congratulations, Dorothy Serafini!
