I am celebrating I Love Yarn day by starting two after school knitting/crochet clubs. One I had running last year, the other is brand new. I just love teaching young people how to knit and crochet.
I have dil who just finished pumpkin baby hats that I would give this prize too. I can’t do pictures,
One of my all time favorites is the knitted Feathery Fan afghan pattern I have made several of them for gifts and they love them
I’ll celebrate I Love Yarn Day by crocheting an afghan that I am currently working on.
I’ll celebrate by continuing to learn Tunisian crochet, and by stitching on a dishcloth I started.
Awesome website
I’ll celebrate I Love Yarn Day with you. I have been having fun knitting scarves and slouchy hats.
My favorite pattern to crochet is the pineapple pattern. I am making pink scarves with individual pineapples joined top to bottom for women in my area who have/or have had beast cancer. So far in 2 years i have made over 100. I do not have a webcam or other means of uploading photos or I would. should i be lucky enough to win this prize I will feel honored!
I made this fantastic afghan several years ago and it is still my favorite of the many I have made over the years. Right now I am working on the Faeries-Sampler Baby Afghan by Elizabeth Moreno. It is a wonderful explosion of color and design.
I made this beautiful afghan several years ago and it is still my favorite of the many afghans I have made over the years. It is the Quilt Motif Crochet Afghan (Item #1255A) from Lion Brand Yarn. Right now I am working on the Faeries-Sampler Baby Afghan (by Elizabeth Moreno, (c) Bizzy Crochet 2012). It is a wonderful explosion of color and design. I am looking forward to finishing it to give to a new mother for her new baby.
I love yarn and have been crocheting since I was 5 years old! This afghan is turns out gorgeous!
Yarn is the best for crocheting afghans, I am going to start my granddaughter on her for time to crochet a chain just like my mother did at the same age of 6.
I’ll Celebrate I Love Yarn. I have crochet six hat for winter for my grand children. I have also crochet them mittens. I Love Yarn,
I have many different “favorite” patterns and it was hard to choose just one, so I settled on the pattern that I have made the most often. I have made 30 or more, most often as gifts for new babies, and some for lapghans. I started crocheting when I was 7, taught by my grandmother. At the age of 28 I taught myself to knit.
I am now knitting Christmas gifts for friends to start with. I am now doing cowls and fingerless gloves for four ladies that I have been to Bible Study with. I will Celebrate I Love Yarn with you guys.
I posted a picture of a blanket I made for my son. Last year I made 16 blankets for my adult kids and had a bunch of skein ends, so I used a Tunisian stitch and made this blanket out of all the left overs.
These Christmas Stockings were made for my son and his fiance. I will celebrate “I Love Yarn” by making more baby blankets and booties.
I am working on my Christmas list, which includes, shark hats, dolls, gloves, dolly blankets, and many other things. I will celebrate I love Yarn Day with you also.
Love yarn, knitting and crochet. I don’t see where or how to post a picture.
I have pictures if projects and my yarn stash room, but no blog to link. How can I upload to enter this???
Not sure how to load a pic for the contest.
Maybe you should ask advice of the people who posted 6 pictures. I thought the rules said to post only one.
I have to be at the hospital on Oct. 11 for an iron infusion. Perfect time to celebrate I Love Yarn Day. I’ll bring my knitting with me, ask them to put the iv in a location where I can still use my hands. 🙂
One of my all time favorites is the corner to corner pattern. Love to make it and is super easy. It makes blankets so warm and cozy.
Crochet and rock on! Whoo hoo!
I drive a school bus but in between hours I sit in my car and crochet. Working on an afghan and Barbie doll dress.
I do not have a “blog post link” but have lots of photos of my finished projects. Could you find an alternative way to enter photos for your contest? Much appreciated! My favorite crochet projects right now are hats for babies and toddlers! I have over 200 posts on Pinterest!
I’ll be crocheting bears and dolls for Xmas donations. I love yarn everyday.
Been working on some scarf sets and sweaters. I don’t have a blog so I can’t post pics.
So many beautiful projects, I enjoyed looking at them all! Good luck to everyone. I’m celebrating yarn every day with numerous WIP’s. Knitting, crocheting, spinning to my heart’s content. 🙂
I am new to crochet. I have been crocheting now for about five months and I can’t get enough! 🙂 I find websites like these very encouraging since I am teaching myself how to crochet and have no one to ask when I don’t understand a pattern. I love the photos shown here. they are a great inspiration. I decided to crochet scarves for a local women and children home less shelter . I’m 12 down! would love to post pics but don’t know how. wish me luck! 🙂
I will be finishing the ripple afghan from a pattern my grandmother gave me 40 years ago.
I’m celebrating I Love Yarn Day by working on another slouchy beanie for my daughter! She really loves to wear them in all sorts of colors! 🙂
I’m almost done crocheting a Red Heart > Rose Parfait scarf in which I am going to ” pay-it-forward ” as a gift giveaway. It’s also Breast Cancer Awareness month – so that will be a nifty item for someone to give to a friend, raffle it off, wear in memory of, etc … That’s how I will celebrate ” I Love Yarn Day ” ….. not only today – but, on numerous days!

I love to knit and am learning to crochet. My favorite things to make are hats and shawls.
On I Love Yarn Day, I’ll be knitting socks to help fight the cold, harsh winter we’re supposed to get.
I seem to have too many friends diagnosed with cancer lately. This hat has been a hit with each of them and provides lots of nice conversations when people compliment them on the caps.
i’ll celebrate by continuing to knit, crochet and learn!
I have enjoyed rediscovering the love of knitting this year. Taught myself as a teenager and did a few things over the year. Someone donated a huge amount of yarn to the church and I have spent the year making things for charity……learning all sorts of new stitches and techniques.
I celebrate “I Love Yarn Day” every day when I knit, crochet or spin. I’m working on socks and a sweater at the moment.
Sorry about the pic. My camera is broken and I don’t have any recent pics of my work. I’ll try again to find one of them.
I’ll be celebrating “I Love Yarn Day” by finishing up my first attempt at a complex cable scarf I’ve been working on. I love to learn new techniques and trying out new yarns and textures. I love it when they all come together in a very unique way.

OK, it was the right one this time. #86, Chris Godwin, I LOVE it. One of the cutest dolls I’ve ever seen.
OH! OH! Oh! ME,ME,ME!! I’d die without yarn!!!
I learned to crochet from my left-handed mother-in-law, who only has the use of her left arm/hand. I sat across from her, and what she did with her left hand, I did wih my right, a mirror image sort of thing. She started me off with knitting, then crochet, to be honest, fourty-two years ago. I’ve donated quite a few baby blankets to several local charities, including Balboa Naval & Children’s Hospitals. I’m working on scarves, shawls and baby blankets for holiday time, and will celebrate yarn day/week doing this.
I like making hats as they are simple, easy to take on the bus and then donate them to our local domestic violence shelter…shawls work also…have too many wip’s:) I love yarn every day!
I Love Yarn Day is every day at my house!! I knit most every day of every week and have many projects going at present, AG doll clothes, Minion Hat, Sweater, Fingerless Mitts and just finished a skirt with Sashay Yarn!
I have been in knitting mode for the past few weeks as I get ready for the holidays by knitting up some gifts for family. I will be spending I Love Yarn Day finishing up some projects that have been neglected. =)
To celebrate I Love Yarn Day, I’ll finish my WIP — a spiral scarf for my daughter.

Ugh! Uploaded a photo but it is upside down. Anyhow, I’m knitting a Christmas stocking for my new grand bay and then stockings for his mom and dad!
I am a true Yarnholic. I can’t get enough, always searching for new colors, new patterns, new types, what can I do with it love to try to be different from the norm. Never enough time in a day, why do we have to sleep when we can be constructing with yarn?

I just started crocheting and LOVE IT!
Just began crocheting this year, after 30 years of quilting, and I loved it so much, a friend and I started an internet business with our hobby!
I made myself an agreement not to buy any new yarn til I’ve finished ALL the yarn I currently have. Thankfully a new first granddaughter helped use up alot with blankets, booties, headbands and dresses. Still having yarn left over, I had that much, I just found out a wonderful Sister at church is expecting their first little girl so I’m back to making more of my favorite crochet patterns and trying a few new ones.
I have been knitting for 48 years and crocheting for 27. i knit or crochet 12 to 16 hours a day, every day. It’s my passion in life.
I love to knit and crochet. I would like to try to knit sweater next.
Celebrating crochet by making a new fall infinity scarf
I Love to crochet and want to try knitting again sometime. I have just finished crocheting baby items for a friend, in the process of crocheting an appliqued princess throw for my granddaughter and have lots more to work on after that. 😉
I celebrate “I Love Yarn Day” every day! Above is the NY Giants blanket that I made to fit our queen size bed. My current project is a blanket for our new grandson who is due in January! I feel totally lost without a hook and yarn in my hands. Went through withdrawals once when I ran out of yarn!!!! THAT will NEVER happen again!
Love to crochet! (I accidentally uploaded my photo 3X – sorry about that. Not sure how that happened. Please delete 2 of them. Thanks! 🙂
For years I did very basic simple afghans and I am now (in my 50’s) learning new things. Having fun experimenting and trying all the wonderful patterns available on-line!
I am a newbie at crocheting and feel in love instantly. It has been a passion ever since. I would love to have these different goodies, use them for encouragement and new projects ,looking forward to one of the best days of the year.;)
I love crochet, everyday!
I’ll keep on knitting infant hats for my local hospital. I’ve been doing this for a couple years and still haven’t used up my stash of baby yarn, I think it’s multiplying.
I have so many patterns I love but this is my current favorite. I make crocheted chemo hats to donate to my local cancer center in memory of my husband, who passed away 2 years ago from brain cancer. I just love this pattern for the hats!

I have been crocheting since I was a teen and I am now 50. I love crocheting things for my family and now my grandbabies. I also crochet items for friends of mine for their babies. I just love working with yarn and I keep busy at it. Trying to crochet gifts for this years Christmas.
I have just started classes to improve my knitting skills – I have been mostly crocheting for the last 30 years. Right now I’m working on a reading shawl for my mom for Christmas, but my basement is full of patterns and projects. Now that I’m retired I intend to keep busy stitching. 🙂
This is my first EVER attempt at crochet! I am in my 2nd week of learning, and I REALLY could use free stuff to kick off my efforts!
I do not see anything (on iPad) about posting my photo.
Made these for my daughters. The pattern called for paper towel tubes but I made these to fit potato chip cans.

Congratulation on your anniversary. I love to crochet and knit !
I will definitely be celebrating this day!
Finished a lovely wrap last night from some surprising stash yarn! I love Yarn!
Just FYI … I tried to upload the picture of my crocheted hammock last night via my phone but got no message saying it had been uploaded, so I thought maybe it was a slow connection so the process had been stalled, so I tried uploading it again and the same thing happened. So I thought it hadn’t been uploaded and just came here today via my computer … to find that it had been uploaded twice, lol! Whoops! You might want to look into that.
Anyway … being an avid crocheter, I also love yarn! And because I have a job where I work on the phone, I’m able to crochet while at work, which is more than a little bit awesome. 😉
I’ll be celebrating “I Love Yarn Day” by bringing my knitting with me to visit my MIL in the rehab facility where she is staying. Hope I can start a new project. I’m almost finished with my daughter’s cowl.
I love making lace shawls, sock, chemo hats…just about anything knitted!! Right now my daughter and I are making minion hats for my grandson’s 2nd grade class!!

I’m currently working on a tablecloth made mostly of scrap dishcloth cotton, a bunch of squares sewn together, no pattern. I don’t usually follow patterns like my entry #447, shawl, no pattern, made with #10 crochet thread and 6878 beads.
I don’t have the needed technology to show any pictures of things I’ve made, but even if I did – the things posted here take my breath away and I’m no where near as good! I taught myself by just trial and error. I’ve looked at a few beginner books and been able to understand some. I love to knit and crochet, crocheting is easier since I lost 60% of the use of my left hand in an accident. Luckily I’m right handed! Good luck to everyone, but I have to say I wish I could win!
I love yarn! I am making crochet projects for all my family members. I am also crocheting scarfs and afghans to go in to the food bank I run and started to help those in stay warm this season.
I LOVE YARN ALL THE TIME NOT JUST ON I LOVE YARN DAY!!
I so totally wish I knew how to post pictures to the site because I would love to win this, If it helps, I’m on the final row of a Lady Eleanor Entralac Shawl done in Noro Silk Garden & it is beautiful.
I can not say I have a favorite pattern since I am new to the fiber world and have only made 39 projects according to my Ravelry page 🙂 I do love my current wips though. I am knitting the Honey Cowl and Easy Folded Poncho and crocheting the Alfo Monster from freshstitches..
Working on a lovely Icelandic sweater for winter! And some slippers 🙂
I love to crochet. It is my favorite craft. My mother taught me how to crochet when I was a little girl. I have been working on this crocheted bedspread for several years now. It is almost finished. I, like everyone else, would love to win.
My photo is of the twenty-two ruffle scarves which I donated to a friend for her Lupus fundraiser. I laid them all out on our office chair and it was one full chair! I’ve probably made over a hundred scarves since mid December of 2012 and I have photographs of them all. I’ve also made a few other types of scarves but these are super quick and easy to make and I absolutely love making them! I give them to my friends. It seems that everybody wants to be my friend. I wonder why.
I’m really enjoying these photographs and comments. Thanks go all who have shared.
I love crocheting. I am always making something. I love yarn so much that I told my children to give me boxes of yarn for Christmas when they ask what I want. I usually give away most of the things I make. I love making baby clothes and hats. I also like experimenting with afghan patterns. Can’t get any pictures to up load but I LOVE YARN !!!!

Everyday should be yarn day!!! I have made many wonderful and playful things these past 42yrs…To win this yarn would help with making many more.

I will spend this week working on designs of my own. One Halloween costume, a couple of hats, and a bonnet or 2!
I love yarn and crochet thread! In the fall I love making shrugs to wear to work, and nice big afghans. I love designing crochet patterns, and my large yarn/thread stash sure comes in handy.
Yarn day to me is like being in a BIG field of fluffy pillows waiting for me to discover all sorts of Knit & Crochet wonders!
I think my mother’s in denial of how much she loves knitting! She loves your website, yarn day and anything associated with knitting! Even though her hands are very arthritic, she knits and they loosen up. PriscillaHutchins@yahoo.com
I love the energy of yarn. The vibrant colors and textures of yarn ignites my artistic juices and inspires me to create projects for family members, friends and numerous charities. I would love to win the red yarn, as I am currently crocheting scarves to support the Red Scarf Project.
I would certainly use the yarn to get started on Christmas gifts and ornaments.
I LOVE YARN DAY. Hope I Win.

As a young girl, I taught myself to crochet w/pictures. Being left handed was hard to get instructions. Now, I have taught hundreds of people everywhere. The most beautiful, articles have been from my friends from Bulgaria. I have been given many things from there. I love crochet!!
I had no idea how many other yarn addicts there were out there! LOL
I wish I could get in touch with about 1/2 of you to get the patterns for
your items they are all awesome. I am a beginner.
This didn’t work the last time, so I’m not sure what I did wrong, but I still love yarn! LOL
I love to crochet, though I sometimes have to knit when I use the new ruffle yarns.
I learned to crochet and knit when I was a kid (thanks Mom!) and now I teach at a local community center.

I love crocheting. I’ve been crocheting since I was a teenager and i am 63 years old now. Most of what I make I give as gifts. My favorite projects are agfhans, hats with mittens and neck warmers. I do have a yarn stash (in more than 2 places). Have to make a scrap yarn project one day to use up the scraps and single skeins of certain color yarns.
I love yarn and am celebrating by making a baby afghan with baby sport yarn by Bernat

I love yarn ANYDAY!!!
i think its just fantastic that we have ” I Love Yarn Day”. I started knitting 2 years ago & theres not a day that goes by where Im not either knitting my one of many WIP or practicing every new technique I can find from lace & cables to mitered squares in my knitting room.In truth I LOVE YARN DAY every. Right now I’m working on a Pittsburgh Steelers Scarf & a Trio of Cabled Pillows for my mother in love. I so enjoyed looking at all the submitted pictures.
I think my favorite project has been the blankets I made for my 3 kids and a baby blanket make with camoflage yarn and the baby’s sire name. Please don’t ask me about pattern because I have lost it and I think that is why it is one of my favorites
I love to crochet and do some knitting. I like to come up with my own patterns as a special gift to ones I love. This is one of my favorites, since I also love kitties… this was an afghan I made for a grandneice. not sure how I add my photo.. no add your link showing..
what a fun giveaway and awesome to see such wonderful “hand-mades_
I love crochet and other needle work using yarn
I love yarn day…I love to crochet and just got more yarn….
I have made the prairie star afghan a few times & I never make something more than once because i get bored. The prairie star feels new with a change of colors. =)
Everyday is “I Love Yarn Day” !!!
I love yarn day! Everyday!! I crochet something everyday! It’s a passion of mine. Then I give the items away.
I am close to retiring and plan on knitting for enjoyment many years to come. I wanted to post a picture of my yarn and a few projects but do not know how to post it!
I love yarn because I love handling it and using it in my knitting, crocheting and weaving. Couldn’t live without it

I would love this to redecorate some projects i have going on! :0)
I Love Yarn Everyday! Just learned how to make graph blankets and have 1 finished and just started on my second! I’m so excited to see it coming together! 🙂
This Fan Afghan is one of my favorites to crochet. It was fun to do because of the various colors of the fans. Also, because there were many pieces to join together it kept my interest, I found it hard to put down my work until I was finished. It recieves many “oooos and aaaahs” when I have visitors.

Love all the yarn project everyone is working on or finished. More yarn means more projects
Yay!! I love yarn Day!!
I started celebrating I Love Yarn Day on Oct 10 by making a bracelet, which I shared above :-). I wore my new bracelet, a crocheted vest and crocheted rose to work on I Love Yarn Day, and today I’ve been organizing my craft room and making wristers to match a hat design I made. Happy I Love Yarn Day!
I am making a scarf now.
As always i bow to all the other folks and their wonderful pieces of work and I’m happy to say
that they all inspire me to carry on with my love of crocheting 😀
I have a yarn and plastic canvas book cover i’d like to enter. Would that count for the contest?
My picture is no. 784 which is an afghan that I made for a friend who lives in Oklahoma and it gets really cold where she is, I wanted something that she could literally wrap up in and cuddle and watch television. I shipped it to her last month and she loves it. The beautiful Red Heart yarn washed in my washer on the wool cycle and I dried it on the same cycle. It is fluffy and looks beautiful. She loves it. I use my Red Heart yarn for all my projects, I actually have two dresser drawers of all colors so I can make something I see in a hurry.
Sorry I mean my afghan is no. 788, not 784.
I love yarn!!! My photo above is #792. Today I was at a festival, where i sold my silly hats! I ran out of the yellow and purple minions! They loved them! It was pure joy watching those kids run around in my hats! I love yarn!!
love the yarn day it means more yarn fun for me
Boy do I ever need a craft room. Would love to have the pattern for the afghan Love you to the moon, I saw above. My e-mail is Ida_amstutz@yahoo.com , Thank you .
I celebrated by buying new yarn for a new project I won’t get to start for a week or so. My favorite project is probably the blanket I made for my Grandma’s 80th Birthday. It was a rose or mauve and cream granny square, single crochet square patchwork type afghan. I’ll post a picture if I can figure out how. It was my first real project and I didn’t follow a pattern other than how to make the granny squares. She loved it… Me? It was ok.
Entered my photo. I think I did it right 🙂
*Crosses fingers* This is an awesome prize, I really would LOVE to win.
I love yarn I love yarn day!!!
Happiest when surrounded by Yarn, just love the feeling of what to make next.
I just learned how to use a loom for knitting and now I want to try things out. Our church is making purple.hats for babies in support of shaken baby syndrome.
Woo hoo! Yarn Day! Something for my grandson who is due in less than a month, that’s what I’d make.
I’m working on crocheted dish rags for Christmas stocking gifts for the girls in my family. I think it is “love yarn day”, every day I can use yarn and thread and sew.
I love yarn day, too!!! Fun to celebrate! I’ve just gotten back to crochet, done two dishcloths and am learning tunisian crochet (FUN!!).
would love to have this wonderful stash of yarn.
Love playing with all types of yarn! Love crocheting!
I love yarn and make pet sweaters, toys and scarfs & mittens for those in need.

good luck to all!
