[email protected] for details.

Thank you so much again to everyone
and have a LOVELY holidays, Alla

… decisions… decisions… Could you please help me? ;o) Any opinions will
count and much appreciated!
I’ve got several requests to continue work on my fruit collection and sure
never don’t mind and so glad to add a couple more!  Also, some time ago
I was asked for a vegetables collection, which sounds interesting too, but
I should make a choice, because not sure I’ll have a chance to complete
both.  So, my questions are:

1. What’s your favorite: fruits or vegetables? … Or you’d like them both?
2. If fruits, which ones you want to see in my knit/crochet designs (so far
I have strawberry, watermelon, pineapple, cherries and 3-4 in mind).
3. If vegetables, which ones and do you think it may be some sweaters,
jackets designs too?

And now for contest. I am offering a free Surprise Euro
yarn basket and a $50 Gift Certificate to my Shop, Etsy
or eBay in exchange for your opinion! You must enter
the contest by Tuesday, December 16, 2008 midnight by
PST time. The winner will be randomly picked up and
notified on Wednesday, December, 17th.

Hugs, Alla
