This year I’ll be walking in the\u00a0Charlotte Heart Walk.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m a terrible fund-raising person, so the only money in my account so far is the $25 worth of seed money that I donated. So I’m stealing an idea from\u00a0Melinda Steele-StCyr<\/a>!<\/p>\n

For every $5 you give through my page (link below), I\u2019ll enter your name into a drawing\u2026 donate $20 and your name goes in four times\u2026 $30 – six times\u2026 you get the idea. After the walk I\u2019ll do a random drawing to choose the winner of a custom pair of socks\u00a0or<\/strong>\u00a0a hat\u00a0or<\/strong>\u00a0a pair of mittens (or anything else [small] of a type I’ve made… stalk my Ravelry projects page) using worsted-weight or heavier yarn. Your choice of fiber and color …up to $30 in materials. If it’s in my stash, even better!<\/p>\n

The Greater Charlotte Heart Walk will be held on September 17th, 2011 Charlotte, NC, so you have a little more than two weeks to donate. If you’re the only person who donates, you get a custom-knit item (for you or as a gift), possibly for less than the cost of the yarn. If I get a few entries, your chances are still great!<\/p>\n

Be sure to put in the comments that you’re entering the drawing for the knitted item!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thanks very much in advance for your support of this cause.<\/p>\n
