Blogiversary Giveaway

I cannot believe that it has already been one year since I started this blog.  It has been such a fun year, filled with crochet, traveling with Jixer, and cooking up some yummy treats!
I want to thank you all so much for making this blog such a success! It has been better than I could have ever imagined, and I owe it all to my readers and followers.

To show my gratitude, I am conducting a giveaway that includes some pretty nifty items.


The winner will receive:

- The book 'Crochet Stitches, Visual Encyclopedia'

- A set of bamboo crochet hooks. There are 12 hooks total, and range in size from 3.0mm to 10.0mm.

- A pair of scissors

- A carrying case for your hooks and scissors

- There will also be a couple of skeins of yarn.  I want the colors to be a surprise, so they are not pictured.

This is perfect whether you already know how to crochet, are just learning, or want to learn!

I am sure you are now wondering how to enter this contest.  Well, it is very easy! 

Please, leave a comment below with the following information included:

-Your First Name
- How you heard about ChripinBirdie (i.e. - Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc)
- What is your favorite pattern (doesn't have to be one of mine!)
- Your email address (so I can notify you directly if you win!)

I will assign each person a number, and will use a random number generator to select a winner.  I will announce this winner on April 10th, by 5pm PST.  The contest will be open until then.

GOOD LUCK!!!!

Thank you again for all of your support!

~Best Wishes~

    Working crochet has been very cathartic for me and I'd love to expand my work. One of the first patterns I ever worked was your Puff stitch slouch beanie. Very fun! x
