Winners!

Edited to Add: Just wanted to mention that I emailed Jenna Adorno (the designer of both Tempting and Tempting II) a week or so ago to let her know that her pattern was selected as the winner of our next knit along and asked her to check in on our site from time to time to answer pattern questions, etc. however I have not yet received a response from her and don't see posts or comments from her here on the SKC site yet. Y'all may want to try to contact her yourselves regarding pattern questions...

I also wanted to mention that TLC Cotton Plus MAY be a good substitute for Tempting II however I've yet to test it on this particular pattern, so PLEASE as always, be sure to do a test swatch before substituting this yarn for this pattern! I was hoping Jenna might be able to offer her advice on using the Cotton Plus yarn for Tempting II so I'll be checking often to see if she's posted anything here.

I'm excited about making this top and have enjoyed seeing all your sexy knits!!!



Well, the official winning pattern for the next KAL is Tempting II! Congratulations!

The Tempting II KAL will begin on July 1st, so start getting your supplies together now! I posted a comment on another entry (but will repeat it here) that an inexpensive substitute for Rowan's Calmer yarn is TLC Cotton Plus. I used the Cotton Plus as a substitute for Calmer for the Nothing But A T-Shirt pattern and it turned out great PLUS it's washable! As always though, be sure to do a gauge swatch for accuracy! Another Sexy Knitter commented that those of you who are going to use the Rowan Calmer for this pattern should consider purchasing an additional skein, as she ran out before she was finished! Good advice!

Other winners tonight are Stacy Spaulding (who won our drawing for the Somewhat Cowl/Orangina knit along) and Ai-ling Lee (who won our drawing for finishing both knit along patterns)! Each of these winners will receive a copy of the new book Sexy Little Knits by Ashley Paige!

Congrats!!!
