Prizes!<\/h2>\n

And now to the winners! I made a list of all the eligible projects and used random.org<\/a> to draw 2:
\nFirst prize<\/strong> ($10 gift certificate) goes to Fatals-attraction<\/strong> – congratulations Linda!
\nSecond prize<\/strong> (free pattern) goes to theMarkofSMB<\/strong> – congratulations Monica!
\nRunner-up prizes<\/strong> go to everyone else \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I’ll email<\/del> Ravelry message the winners with their prize details (and the runner-up prize discount codes to all<\/strong> the other CAL participants) within the next couple of days, but now it’s time to spend a quiet summer Christmas afternoon at home in the sunshine with my little family – I hope you’re enjoying your day too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
