Good Karma wool sweater giveaway!


I have received more than my fair share of kindness and good fortune lately. Karma & I know how to get along happily, so it's time for a giveaway! You will get your choice of any one sweater from my shop (if you want a color that's not there, I can check my unlisted sweaters too)! I will be picking 2 winners, so your chances of winning are already doubled! The details? ...

Mandatory Entry:
* Go to my shop and let me know which sweater is your favorite.... it doesn't have to be the one you pick if you win.

Want an extra entry?
* Follow my blog, and if you already do just say that.
* Do something kind (Slip a sweet note in your husband's lunchbox, play that game you've played a hundred times that you hate that your kid loves, a random act of kindness to a stranger...) , and let us know what you did! It will make you feel good about yourself, make the recipient of the good fortune happy, and it will get you another entry!
* Blog about this giveaway & link to it.
* Blog about encouraging kindness, and giving. (you can blog in the same post about this giveaway & encouraging kindness, and still get 2 entries).
* Have a giveaway of your own!

Make sure to leave a separate comment for the entries you complete!

Deadline: November 29th at midnight, Central time zone. I will use random.org to pick the winners the following morning (November 30th). **please leave an email if your blogger profile does not include it or you don't have a blog. I need a way to contact you.** Once a winner is drawn I will contact them and the winner will have 48 hours to reply back before I draw a new winner.

Oooh, I get to be first! I dig the blue angora with the ruffle at the neck. I'm really into re-sweatering lately, so thanks for the chance.

I am plugging in another entry for The Sewing Dork. She is the queen of good karma, and one of the reasons for my spontaneous giveaway!

Thanks SD! You rock!

So hard to pick just one. I'll have to go with the big slate cashmere. I can see cute little houses made out of it.

I love #122. I can just see so many options for my LO.

I like #281! I love the sweaters with buttons because there are so many options for longies. I don't have a blog, but does it count if I post about the giveaway and the other part on facebook? I chose to follow you thru yahoo/google (not sure how that works) but no one really knows about my blog:)

I think [373] Black cashmere big sweater for upcycling would be great for little boy longies! ;)

Melissa said...

fair isle lambswool blend is for sure my favorite. I'm picturing adorable wool longies for my one year old!

Melissa said...

I linked to your give-a-way on my blog!

Michelle said...

Today me and my three kids brought over fresh cupcakes to our elderly neighbors. Bill is a WWII and Vietnam vet and just had back surgery. His wife is a homemaker who still on her hubby of 50+ years. They are just way too cute!

mamaTAVE said...

The big bright chunky wool sweater (#387) looks fun. I love your shop! What a great idea! So glad The Sewing Dork pointed me in this direction.

Excited to be following!

AprilMayAugust said...

Oh my goodness! I just found your blog today and it is totally right up my alley! I have been really into remaking sweaters into....anything really. I also love your shop. It's like you are doing the dirty work of going to the thrift shops for me! I love the gray stripe one! I could think of some really cute items that I could make from that.

AprilMayAugust said...

Annnd...I am now following your blog on Google reader!

AprilMayAugust said...

P.S. Something nice I did recently: I left a note in my neighbors mailbox thanking them for bringing in my garbage cans on a windy day when I forgot to. Theirs was probably more nice but I just wanted to let them know I appreciated it!

Viola said...

Kind thing I did today: I let a mum with a kid take my seat on the metro although I really desperatly wanted to sit, as I was very exhausted...

Viola said...

Another nice thing: I found a box of used dishes and kitchen supplies at the garbage container in our backyard (somebody wanted to throw it away) and saved it for my flatmate moving out into his own new flat and starting "from the scratch" with kitchen stuff...

Viola said...

Aaand- another kind thing from the day before yesterday- somebody from our appartment building was throwing away a used washing machine by just placing it in the hallway with a note on it saying "for free"- and I placed another note on it, to please let it sit there for a couple of hours to save it,knowing my flatmate needed a washing machine for his new flat of his own
- you know, sometimes it is so easy to do something good by just being at the right place at the right time and being aware of other people´s needs, it doesn´t take "big deeds/sacrifices" at all to begin with...
