So on to results with two judges, not three.) Thank you, oh thank you, for playing with me!
I’ve loved every entry and giggled with glee.
Your talents abound; well, of that there’s no doubt.
“My readership rocks!” I just want to shout.
If only a way there was you to repay…
Yes, I know, the prizes; they’re soon on their way!
The poetry ends here; deal with it. And the trophy is a mere graphic representation of the pride and sense of profound achievement soon to be radiating from the winners. Again, you may deal. First Prize, Rated G: monica
Comments putting this poem in front:
“Wonderful use of knitting terms.”
"Tinking - I love it!"
First Prize, Rated PG-13: Scott
Comments that made this poem shine:
“Enjoyed the multiple global references."
"You can knit while you poop?"
Runner-Up: ikkinlala
What made the poem special to you?
"There was great rhythm to the piece."
"Props for using Orenburg - dang!"
monica, Scott, and ikkinlala: please send me your e-mail addresses (angie AT paulsonstudios DOT com). I will then forward stash photos so you can choose your prizes from the pile o' alpaca.
Thanks again to everyone who entered: MamaMay, cthulhulovesme, squiggi, monica, sjmercure, ikkinlala, and Put a Sock in it. Will you all please e-mail me your names and snail mail addresses (see above)? Since this was my first contest, I think everyone who entered needs an alpaca yarn snack. I love receiving packages - especially if they contain yarny goodness - and I bet you do, too.
Happy knitting, all!

What fun! I'd forgotten all about this contest! :)
I love rereading everyone's couplets. Thanks for the great and generous contest, Meema!
Oh wow! Thanks! I'm emailing you right away. How generous! I had loads of fun coming up with knitting poetry.
Thanks so much. =) Great fun all around.
Thank you very much! Did you get my email?
This was a fun contest!
(I sent you an e-mail a couple of days ago.)
I received the e-mails, just trying to get better color pics of the yard to show you! I hope to e-mail on Friday. :-)
