Remember the long loopy scarves I knitted for my sisters at Christmas?
Well, I've got lots of that fluffy faux-mohair (100% acrylic) yarn leftover and - as there's a limit to the amount of fluffy scarves I can knit for my friends and family - I thought it would be fun to share some with you guys :)
I'm giving away one set of cloudy blue yarn...
... and one set of black yarn:
My scarves were knitted in basic garter stitch, knitting two strands of yarn together to make one thick strand. I used very chunky needles (needle size 000 / 15 / 10mm) and cast on about 15 stitches and then just kept knitting until the scarf was as long as I wanted. Then I cast off and stitched the ends together to form a twisted loop (like this). Easy!
If you'd like to knit your own loop scarf or have something else you fancy making from the fluffy yarn, leave a comment on this blog post for your chance to win. Remember to say which colour you'd prefer!
I'm happy to ship internationally, so anyone can enter. Leave your comment before 10pm on Tuesday 28th February, and I'll pick two winners at random on Wednesday 29th February.
Please make sure you leave a name or pseudonym (no anonymous comments please!) and leave a blog link, Twitter username, Etsy username or email address so I can contact you. If I'm unable to contact the winner within two weeks, I will pick someone else.
P.S. pop back tomorrow for another crafty giveaway...

I have this kind of yarn in light blue in my stash, but with a black scarve I will make one of my relatives very happy!!
Wow - oh to be first at something!
I have just come back from a knitting circle meeting - I am a new knitter - and finding this is wonderful. Blue is my favourite colour and I just LOVE fluffy yarn.
How generous of you! I'd love the blue. It's just beautiful!
I love the blue fluffy stuff. I would love to make me a scarf with that. Thanks for a great giveaway and good luck all.
Oh how strange I'm crocheting a mohair scarf at the moment and was just thinking I need to get a different colour to do a frill round the edge? I think either of these would be lovely so please include me thanks

Lol, Le Petit! The scarf is beautiful :-) I would be happy with either color, but if I have to choose, I would go with black. Thanks for the chance!
Would love the dark yarn. Little Bee hat for my lil' BB would be great!
Ooh how lovely. Got a feeling that we will need nice soft fluffy scarves well into spring. Please enter me into your giveaway and if I win then either colour if fine- love them both.
Well, I was thinking to knit a black cowl for my little sister because of her birthday....what a lovely coincidence!!!
