I'm VERY happy to announce the winner of the Design Naming Contest.....
Norma H of Columbus, Ohio!!!!
(NHoran on Ravelry)
Out of the 30+ truly fantastic suggestions that I received (via Sleepy Eyes Knits on Facebook, on the blog, and on my SleepyHeads Ravelry group), 3/4 of my favorites were suggested by Norma.
I've decided to go with....
"Tilia" (for lime tree)
It's a lovely, simple name and just has the little bit of extra sparkle that I wanted to describe the shawl's character.
Norma will be receiving a gift package of yarn and goodies, will receive a free copy of this lace pattern (or any pattern of her choice) and also be named on the pattern in the description.
Congratulations, Norma!!!!
I also want to thank EVERYONE who gave suggestions for this contest - I really loved reading all of the shawl name ideas! Thank you SO much!!!
(Please stay tuned for next month's contest as well!)
Before I go, I wanted to leave you with a couple of pictures of the new shawl design, "Tilia", blocking. I still have some writing, editing, and photography to do on the pattern, so keep a look out for a new post when the pattern is finished and available for purchase.
and
What do you think???? :D
