When we released the Backyard Garden kit, I created lots of tutorials for fun projects to embellish with your knitted flowers, leaves, and bugs.  But we wanted to hear your ideas too!  We had a contest to see what other knitters plan to embellish with their Backyard Garden kit, and I picked 5 winners who had fun and creative ideas!  Each winner will receive a $25 Knit Picks Gift Certificate, and I will send a message in this community to let them know that they have won!

And now for the winners!

Cheryl is going to knit a flower for each person who attends her World Wide Knit in Public event!

Kyle is going to turn the embellishments into ornaments for his Christmas in July party.

Susan suggested using the flowers as luggage tags, so she could easily spot her suitcase at the airport.

Evelyn would use the flowers to decorate public spaces, as yarnffiti (yarn+graffiti).

Kathy is going to use the kit to embellish a dog sweater!  She even Photoshopped a picture of what the sweater will look like.  I think her dog is very cute.

Congratulations to all of the winners!  We received so many fun, creative, and unique entries to this contest!  Thanks to everyone who participated!
