Ravelry really continues to amaze me...there is this group called The Destash & ISO Library which is an amazing resource to find books/patterns for sale or to sell your stuff too. I often check it out and have found it's all about the right timing. You have to be very quick!
Anyway, the other day I found these three Norah Gaughan publications up for grabs and I snapped them up for a great price. Thing is I should have used Ravelry to confirm that I already own the one on the far right (Berrocco: Norah Gaughan Vol 1) as I used it to make my Annikki sweater.
Oh well, let's see if you want it leave a comment and on Saturday at the end of the day I'll do a random drawing for the winner! I'll announce the winner on Sunday.

Can't wait till summer.... does that count?
de-lurking to say I have been enjoying your blog lots, though not for long as just found you last week. Keep up the good work!
almost commented on your accidental felting, felt lots of sympathy as I have been there before.
cheers!
I've gotten some really good deals on Ravelry (though not on books - yet). I think you'll love the book on the left; my daughter gave it to me for Christmas last year and I think it's great.
I absolutely love Norah Gaughan, great buy! Knitting Nature is a great book, and I would love to have a look at Berroco 1; I've been loving Anais from afar for a long time, and I would love to make that.
I love her designs, but I don't have any of her publications. Oh, and BTW, I was sick anout your ruined sweater, but so glad your daughter could use it. I felted a handknit from Ireland sweater a few years ago. It was not pretty, maybe I could do a pillow or something.
Thanks for the drawing.
Wow! That's so generous! I'd love your Norah Gaughan book!! I think her patterns are great!
I'm nolaboard on Rav.
Thanks for a chance to win it.

I love her patterns and would really like to have that book. Sparky136 on ralvery
Yeah, I need to use my stash list on Rav better! Fortunately I only have a couple of knitting books so far, so they're easy to remember. Good reminder to update my library though!
Thanks for the contest.
(InJuneau on Ravelry too)
I did something similar--but with a single pattern! It's a lovely collection that you duplicated!
I'd love a copy of it. Thanks for the giveaway.

Thank you for your contest, its wonderful for you to share with your fellow knitters! Ravelry is a great tool, I never thought of using it to keep track to things and will have to look into it.
Ooooooooooh! That has been on my knit wish list for awhile! I'm a lurker , i admit it! Just so many good blogs i love to visit but not enough time to comment everywhere, smile! Enjoy your weekend!
I'd love to see some of Norah Gaughan's patterns. Thanks for the contest.
