Winners!

Thanks to everyone who watched our latest YouTube video and entered our giveaway! Those of you who guessed Ursula and Uma the Understanding Monsters by Rebecca Danger (or any permutation of that pattern name) were entered into our drawing to win a Knitter's Pride Shawl Pin. The Random Number Generator chose Karin, aka kvitsvart on Ravelry as our winner - we have PM'd you to arrange for the delivery of your prize. Congratulations!

We also have another prize winner to share with you - last month's winning entry in the Share Your Pride Video Contest! Congratulations to Esther, whose winning entry will receive her choice of a deluxe needle or crochet set from Knitter's Pride and a free shawl pin!

Watch her video below to see her "most interesting filming location" (last month's theme). We hope this inspires you to work on your submission for this month - our theme is "best animal guest appearance." You can view the full contest rules and upcoming themes here!

Guess the Monster!

Is everyone working on their video submission this month? We hope you're having a great time putting together your entry for the Knitter's Pride Share Your Pride Video Contest (and remember, we're not expecting an Oscar-winning performance - just fun videos by our creative fans!) .

We'd like to inspire you to enter our video contest with our latest YouTube video below. Does anyone recognize the knitted monster who makes a guest appearance?

 

We'll be giving away one free shawl pin to the reader who correctly identifies the name of the pattern and designer. Be sure to leave your best guess as a comment on this blog post, along with some way to get in touch with you (ravelry ID or email address would suffice). In the event that we have several correct guesses, we will use the Random Number Generator to pick a winner. 

Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Twitter - we might be sharing a few hints in the weeks to come to help you guess! 

We'll announce the winner in our next blog post on September 7. Good luck!

Do You Knit or Crochet on Location?
