I'd love to win the prize pack -- I actually have both of the books checked out of the library right now as I like using the library to pre-screen things I want to buy to see if they are worth it (and these definitely are). I'll wait a few days and see if I win now. It looks like blogger is going to use my gmail name to post this, and that is the same as my ravelry name.

Thank you also for the generous giveaway. My Ravelry name is "a-crochet", I live in Florida, USA, and I would like the "Learn Bead Crochet" online class.
Just so you know, I have followed "Knit and Crochet Now" on Create for a couple of years...I have to get up rather early to catch it, though, but it is worth it. I wondered if you all made your own samples! :)
I love what you are doing to spread the Crochet love (no hating of knitting here...just can't get the hang of it; however I have mixed Tunisian and regular crochet...lots of fun...imagine mixing knit and crochet would also be good for the brain and soul!)--Keep it up!
