Alright, I'm pretty excited about this, you guys. I made up three prizes for a pan-internet contest:
Sherlock hat and Jawn gloves set: The slouchy tam is hand-knit with incredibly soft Knitpicks City Tweed (55% merino wool, 25% alpaca, 20% donegal tweed) and embroidered with swipes of mulberry silk in black, cream and purple-shirt-of-sex violet. The fingerless gloves, which stretch to accommodate larger and smaller hands, are knit with Valley Yarns merino wool in my best approximation of the cabling on John's oatmeal jumper.
8" x 10" archival print of "Tremendous echo": A lovely high-quality print of my Gingerbatch drawing, signed upon request, plus the original ink drawing of same.
John & Sherlock customized Moleskine journal: An 80-page blank journal with a pocket, 5" x 8.25", decorated with sepia ink and white Prisma pencil which holds up to a lot of handling. Sherlock and John handcuffed in an echo of the famous Sid & Nancy photo, with a splash of 221b wallpaper for flavor.
Here's how you enter:
1. Go to the OahuSPCA website, visit their Donation Page and make a donation of at least $5. (They accept credit cards and Paypal.) I've volunteered at this shelter before, and they are amazing. All their animals are so happy, but they are constantly struggling financially.
2. Forward or send a screenshot of the confirmation email for your donation to me at gingerhaole@gmail.com. For every $5 you donate, I will put your name/email into a jar one time. There is no limit! If you donate $100, for example, your name goes in 20 times!
The first-prize winner will have first choice of the prizes, second-place the second, and third will have the prize that remains. Even if you don't win, you'll know you helped care for some really wonderful animals. And if you aren't able to donate, please signal-boost to help spread the word!
The contest begins immediately and will conclude on May 9. I'll announce the winners here and to their emails directly on May 10. Thank you in advance to everyone who participates! You are marvelous!
