Time has come for walking on the beach,balmy ocean breezes & falling asleep to the sound of the tide reaching the shore...endless hours of knitting & photographing are ahead...I am feeling so good & I want to share that feeling...6 months ago I began this blogging adventure and have never looked back-I have made wonderful friends and have had endless amounts of creative stimulation....and my 29th ;-) birthday is 13 days away...so it's time to celebrate!
This Noro blossom is beautiful...don't you agree? A rainbow of amazing colors...what would you
create with it if it was yours?
IT COULD BE YOURS-I'M GIVING THIS AWAY-just leave me a COMMENT...here on the blog and when I return from vacation we'll have a little official drawing from all the names (faithful and lurkers alike!)...the winner will be notified via email...
There will be some other wonderful surprises along with the Noro...a little Longaberger basket may be involved here,also!!
See you in 1 week...

Amazing, how many of us are the same age! Who'd have thought that everyone would be celebrating their 29th this year. O.K. And next year, and the next...
Happy birthday and enjoy your vacation!
I don't think I've ever seen that particular Noro yarn. It looks pretty awesome.
Oh, 29, that's a good age to be! At least I think it is - I can't remember that far back.
I have never understood the convention of giving gifts on one's birthday - but far be it for me not to enter. Count me in!
Have a wonderful wonderful wonderful time. I can almost feel the sand under my toes.
oohh... found you through the noro group on ravelry... i'd like to enter!
My goodness...what gorgeous yarn that is begging to come live with me and be my cowl! Happy birthday, have a great vacation, and thanks for the contest!!!
it's so pretty! i would definitely make some kind of a bag or purse. it would certainly go with everything!
p.s. i love the snuggle you made. it's lovely and i've been drooling over that yarn for a while now.

Yea Noro! Have an idea for a project right now... :-)
I hope you have a wonderful trip and birthday! I think the yarn would be perfect for a bag or a hat.
I saw your post via the Noro group on Ravelry. That is some delicious looking yarn...

Great pictures. I wonder what the give away will be, when knitted up?
I don't quite know how this works, it's the first time I'm replying. IT's nice of you to give it away especially since the yarn is very beautiful. I had thought lately of doing a poppy version with cash iroha and blossom and wondered whether blossom is warmer than Silk garden which I find very cold. I have knitted poppy before with a banana yarn since cash iroha wasn't available in New Zealand then. But the whole jersey is simply too cold so I can only wear it in the NZ summers! Beutiful striping though (I used a grey banana silk and Noro silk garden #211, will put pictures on flickr and ravelry soon).
Please sign me up for an entry am happy to pay for shipping!

It sounds like a wonderful getaway!
I LOVE the Noro Blossom and I don't think I've seen that colorway.
(I don't need to be entered in the contest but your giveaway is flippin' sweet!)
Have a happy break. Such lovely yarn.
Such lovely yarn, you should be knitting it up on your holiday into something wonderful....oohh lazy days of summer, im envious...
Oh what a beautiful yarn! Congratulations on your anniversary, and on your birthday! (My birthday is actually on Tuesday the 26th of August, very close to yours.)Have a great vacation!
Blossom is beautiful and I so wish I was 29 again lol...enjoy your birthday.
H a p p y B i r t h d a y !
thanks for making this giveway possible :)
Happy Birthday to you!!! How nice of you to be giving away present on YOUR birthday!!! Thanks!!!
I found you via Whip Up. Thanks for the fun contest, and I look forward to getting to know your blog better ;-)
Have a fabulous Birthday and getaway!!!
no name in the pot for me but just wanted to wish you well!
have a great, wonderful vacation!
what a nice giveaway! count me in!
That Blossom really needs me to make it into a hat or a neck warmer. How nice to be able to wear something called "Blossom" during the long, cold winter.
What a generous give-away! I don't know if I'd be able to do anything with the yarn.... I'd just want to pet it!
I admit, I'm a lurker.... But I love the colors and would love to have them!
Enter me into the giveaway, please!
Oh wowthis noro looks fantastic, please count me in for your giveaway.. :-)
I also love your little wrap ! Have a great vacation !

I hope you have a fab vacation and a great birthday!
I think I would make a purse out of the yarn if it was mine to do with as I liked.
A hat or scarf, just for me, for a change :-)
Hope you have had a great and restful vacation. Is it too late to sign up for the yarn?
Blessings,
Oh, benevolent Noro goddess.. bestow Blossom lushness on a starving student who could use a wooly hug long about now. Perhaps I could make a snuggly hat to keep my brain warm. I need all the help I can get!
Just discovered your blog through Ravelry and wanted to join in for the free Noro giveaway. It's beautiful yarn, such lovely colours. I was always a Rowan girl but have used Noro twice now and I'm hooked.
thanks, carol

Hope you had a great vacation. This yarn is gorgeous. I would think of a purse too, maybe felted and combined with other yarns.
Thanks for the Giveaway.
I hope you have a great vacation. Sign me up! I haven't seen that yarn before!
I know I'm too late, but I'd make a scarf – I always do.
