I loved reading about all of your holiday traditions, and they’ve definitely given me ideas to incorporate into my own celebrations.
It was so hard to pick a winner. I agonized. I lost sleep. I couldn’t do it.
I decided to get my friend Random to help me.
Random doesn’t know you like I do. Random doesn’t say to himself, “Oh, that person is an EMT,” or, “Wow, she has nine children,” or, “I met her at Stitches East, and she’s a brand new knitter.”
Random is just the person for the job.
Our first prize was a sock kit, including one of our patterns and a skein of yarn. Random chose:
And number 279 belongs to…
Carol! Congratulations, Carol! What a fun tradition. 
I am looking forward to Christmas as my children get older and sleep past 4:36 am. What will be like to awaken at say, 8:00 am? A girl can dream.
Our next prize was a custom colorway. How exciting — I look forward to working with people on these!
Random chose:
339. A fine odd number.
339 belongs to…
Karen! You are hilarious! I am going to have to try this. Perhaps I will swat at the people in my house who arise at 4:36 am. Congratulations.
And our final winner, the person who won three months of membership to either one of our nifty clubs, is…
And 49 belongs to:
Congratulations! I’m interested to know how your Christmas Eve tradition got started — have you always celebrated on Christmas Eve?
I’m sorry if you didn’t win. I wish I could give fabulous prizes to all of you! Please check back, maybe Random will choose you next time!
Have a peaceful rest of the season.
