Prize Closet

Welcome to the Prize Closet. This is the place where you can see all of the amazing prizes that Local Yarn Stores, Etsy Shops, Designers, Independent Dyers, and other Generous People have donated to help make Seasons of Lace more fun.

The current Season is:  Winter of Lace ‘10

If you look at the link to this page in the header for this site, you’ll note that there is a drop down menu showing additional pages. There you will find the Prize Closet for the most recently active Season (along with the allocations of those prizes).  You’ll also find a list of all the folks who have ever donated a prize for Seasons of Lace, and the number of seasons during which they’ve supported us on Past Donors page.

During the “Off Seasons”, this page is unlikely to be very full — the Prize Maven has to have time to recover from all the gathering and awarding during the “Active Seasons”.  None-the-less, our participants are generous folk, and this page reflects that — by listing donations that were volunteered without solicitation!

Several of our Prize donors have also provided DISCOUNTS to our members that are good during the season. Please be sure to check out those discounts, and to shop with our sponsors! Without them, we’d have an empty prize closet. Remember — if use our sponsors’ wares, and blog about it on SoL and you’ll qualify to WIN more prizes.

To make finding specific things easier, we’ve sorted the Prize Closet into several categories.

Gift Certificates
Patterns
Stitch Markers
Yarn
Other (all sorts of fun things there!)

(Some of our members are donating as well!!! (Remember, if you donate, you get more chances to win). The links in their information are to Ravelry home pages or to blogs).

Gift Certificates

Patterns

Cindy at BaxterKnits has donated one of her Progressive Shawl pattern. She calls it a progressive shawl because the design starts simple, and increases in complexity as you go — so it’s a lace class that leaves you with a gorgeous shawl. This is Cindy’s fourth season sponsoring Seasons of Lace.


Helen (Shadowdancer ) from Fiber Dancer’s Design Studio has offered three copies of her Stars over Diamonds pattern

and one copy of Daedelus

(both available as a pdf download).



Stitch Markers
