A LITTLE GIVEAWAY

"The secret of life is that all
 we have and are is a gift
of grace to be shared. "

 ~Lloyd John Ogilvie

While in the yarn store
on Friday picking up
needles I found the cutest
little stitch markers and
thought of you.

If you would like them
leave a comment letting
me know what your favorite
pattern is to knit.

I'll choose a winner at random
and announce the winner
next Monday [July 23].
Have a great week!

    Those are the cutest stitch markers. hmmm...favorite pattern...I have made the shroom pattern from knitty several times (probably 15). I love the hat for its versatility. It is a quick knit and fits most people. I have given it to all my mama friends as a gift.

    Those so cute, and now that I am knitting in the round I could really use some new stitch markers :)

    My favourite pattern right now if the milo...no surprises there.

    Thanks for the giveaway Tracey.

    You are so kind!

    "The secret of life is that all

    I think that is one of the best quotes ever :)

    My favourite pattern? That is a hard one :)

    Mmmmm....

    Okay I'll have to go for the bolero pattern in my "Simple Knits" book. I really enjoyed knitting up those boleros for my three middle girls and hope to start one for Nola soon :)

    I don't think I knit enough to qualify for a gift - but these are very wantable (is that a word) - my favourite pattern is a little bunny by Debbie Bliss so lovely for new babies together with a little pram blanket I am about to start making another one.

    Tracey you are so sweet!! They are so cute! My favorite pattern is hard to choose! I have a few depending on what I'm knitting for! The five hour baby sweater is my favorite baby knit & all new babies in my life get one; for socks I like the basic ribbed socks. And for hats right now it's the Miranda hat!

    Oh, how cute! Thanks for the giveaway, Tracey! My favorite pattern to knit might be the Honey Cowl. Although, I also just finished Pickle's Plain Vest and I liked that one, too. Tough question!

    Beautiful quote. I don't knit very well mainly crochet but I sure see a lot of very lovely patterns in knit (like your Abigail cardi), I wish I was better at it.

    Such happy, colourful stitch markers. A whole different creature from the ugly ol' plastic markers that I use. My favourite pattern. Hmmmm. Probably my go-to - the Rainbow Dress by Georgie Hallam.

    Very fun stitch markers! My ultimate fave pattern is Topgraphical Socks, by Katie McEwen. They're simple, fast, and show off all my hand dyed striping yarn without being a boring sock!

    Thanks for sharing!

    Adorable! They beat the bread ties I use for stitch markers, any day! Lolol. I like to knit baby hats. Im just now starting to adventure into harder bigger projects. Simple 2inch ribbing, baby hats, so far have been most enjoyable to me.

    They are certainly very cute stitch markers. Mine are always snagging on my work. My favourite pattern would have to be The Tea Leaves cardigan I am knitting. It is so easy to knit, the pattern is very straight forward and fits (so far) like a dream. Jacinta

    So sweet! Favourite pattern... I think the puerperium cardi is definitely my most-knit and I love it a lot. The pebble vest is also right up there. And on the adult front, I loved my first shalom!
    What is your favourite pattern??

    My favorite pattern to knit are the "stay on booties" in Knitting for Baby by Melanie Falick and Kristen Nichols. I always have a pair on needles in my purse. They are quick and easy. Love those stitch markers.

    I am simple, " Wendy toe - up sock" is my go to pattern.

    I never can pick a favorite pattern but I do love to knit a fun hat! Thanks for the chance to win these cuties.

    So cute!!

    I think my favorite pattern is for a small ball that I then turn into a cat toy. Why? Because it gives me a chance to take a basic idea and be funky with it! :D

    I don't know what my favorite pattern is yet as i've only actually knit a few of them...but that Lovey Dovey is looking so tempting! (and the name is perfect!)

    I ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ stitch markers, Tracey. Each is a little jewel.

    I'll have to say Multnomah Shawl is one of my favs
    and Plain Vanilla Sox are my all time favorite.

    Sox have been my major items to knit, with shawls coming in at second.

    hugs

    Tracey,
    Those sure are cute stitch markers! My favorite pattern to knit is "Back Bay" socks....knitting socks travel well....when I know I could be sitting long and I don't have a knitting project on the needles, I throw in a skein of sock yarn, needles, and pattern...if I get bored, I start a new pair of socks. Blessings to you from Kansas!

    Those are the cutest. You are so sweet to think of us. I think my favorite pattern so far is my nefarious bookmark pattern. I find the linen stitch comforting, plus I have memorized it and it's fast!
