thanks everyone!

we ended up with 30 donations! wow! i have already been in contact the winners and will be shipping out their prizes shortly!

so first up, the winner of the 2nd prize shown above was megan s. in virginia (who i believe is blogless). congrats megan!


and the grand prize shown above went to purlingpirate over at purling p's! congrats and thank you!

i actually had ellen draw the winners yesterday afternoon!

you might have popped over to her blog in the last day or so and seen that she lost her father in law this week. it was a tough day for her, but she said that coming home and seeing all the donations you made brought her to tears. so not only did you help her out with her walk, but you were a bright spot in a very tough day for her. she wanted me to make sure you knew how thankful she was.

and i thank you too, for being readers and being a part of this amazing community of knit bloggers. big or small you helped make a difference.

Kudos to you for putting together such a great virtual cheering section for Ellen and donating such luscious prizes! Huge round of applause and heartfelt support to Ellen....she's walking for such a great cause!!! And just one of our favorite people to boot! Finally, three cheers for everyone who contributed to support Ellen and eradicating breast cancer! Now how cool is it!? Knitters are very special people!
