As I’ve mentioned before, I’m the new CAL Administrator in the Crochet on Ravelry group. However, I’m also helping out with COR’s Crocheted Finished Object of the Year (CFOY) contest.
For the month of December, we’re opening it up to all members to post pictures of crocheted items they’ve made this year – anything, as long as it was FINISHED in 2008. After some discussion, the mods have decided to even allow items that were started before 2008, as long as they were finished in this calendar year. It can be anything, from anybody – even professionals are included, though they have their own category (no fair pitting professionals against newbies, is it?). As I said, it can be any item, but each item can only be entered once, in a single category. (In other words, if you have something that would fit into two or more categories, you have to choose which one to enter it under, because it can only be entered once.)
The categories are:
- Keeping Warm (Hats/Gloves, Etc.)
- It’s in the Bag! (Purses, Bags)
- Professional Hookers Only!
- Ami-Ga-Whatsi? (Toys, Dolls, etc.)
- Snuggle (Blankets)
- Bambinos (Children’s Items)
- 1st Time Hookers
- Hers & His (Clothing)
- Householding (Kitchen/Bath/Etc.)
- Grab Bag (Other Stuff)
The one thing we’re short on? Sponsors. We are in need of approximately 20 prizes for the winners, and only have 3 volunteers so far. Some people have been contacted but not replied, but our biggest problem is simply a shortage of people to contact to ASK for sponsorship!
(And here’s where I finally get to the point; yes, I can be wordy.)
SO! Are you an LYS owner? A pattern designer? An Etsy shop owner? A spinner? A stitch-marker-maker? Would you like to donate a prize for one of our winners?
Anything that is in any way crochet-related is welcome. Yarns, patterns, hooks, stitch markers, hook cases… you get the idea. If you’re interested, please, contact me! Either leave a response here, or, if you’re not comfortable doing that, you can email me. yarnkrazykreationz [AT] who [DOT] net.
Thanks!!!! 😀
