CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL WINNERS!
The whole circus was snarkily led by wordsmith and unrepentant discombobulator Sarah (aka as rebeltrouser). THANK YOU!
We behaved. Mostly.
And knitted so many lovely things.
There is so much creative talent out there!
There are more photos of prizes and cheer in the tricosalong thread on Ravelry.
