Yarn Giveaway: The Winnah!

Thanks to everyone who entered our giveaway. The winner (drawn at random) is PharmaMom who said:

My favorite red used to be a deep dark red, but now with little ones in the house I've been loving fire engine or cherry red! Bright, bright, bright and happy!

Sounds good and congratulations!

We loved reading everyone's answers (including the fantastically enigmatic "I like pickle"). 'Our favourite reds: Fire-engine and Campbell's Tomato Soup with Radish and Popsicle in hot pursuit.
