Christmas CAL 2012 roundup

Happy Christmas! Let’s celebrate with a look at the results of the 2012 PlanetJune Christmas Crochet-Along. Thank you to everyone who joined in; as always it’s so much fun to see what you’ve made. My contribution to this CAL was a thread crocheted poinsettia:

They’re all so lovely – congratulations to everyone who participated!

If you missed out on the CAL fun, don’t despair: The Pet-Along will start on January 1st – I haven’t assembled the list of patterns yet, but there’ll be lots to choose from! The details will be up in the PlanetJune Ravelry group at some point before Jan 1st 😉

Prizes!

And now to the winners! I made a list of all the eligible projects and used random.org to draw 2:
First prize ($10 gift certificate) goes to aabrink – congratulations Alicia!
Second prize (free pattern) goes to abjCrochet – congratulations Alison!
Runner-up prizes go to everyone else 🙂

I’ll Ravelry message the winners with their prize details (and the runner-up prize discount codes to all the other CAL participants) within the next few days, but now I’m going to turn off the computer and get back to Christmas – I hope you’ll do the same and that you’re having a wonderful day!

    Merry Christmas June! Under my tree this year – a surprise Planet June pinecone made for me by my sweet “daughter” Alice! I love it to pieces! Because there is a little of each of you now hanging on my tree.

    And my bobble trees created the perfect forest backdrop for the Christmas elves. Wil try to get pix posted to Ravelry soon.

    Hopefully you are taking a little break. Happy New Year.

    Thanks for the beautiful roundup June!

    And thank you for the beautiful patterns you design… they are a joy to make.

    I hope you have a wonderful Christmas. If I could send some snow your way I would. 🙂
