Hi
I am confused with how to vote too!
All the shawls are gorgeous and have obviously taken a lot of hard work. It is hard to choose a favourite and I have narrowed it down from my three! My vote goes to Rosi and I would really appreciate it if you can add this on to your voting list and cancel my original vote if I have done it by accident
Huge congratulations to all the finalists…you should all be very proud

Rosie,
Your New York Stole is beautiful. I voted for you, however, I’m not sure if my vote went through. Therefore, I’m writing this message with the hope that it will count.

Sue, I just wanted to give you some support and some kudos for the work you have done for this contest. I think the majority of knitters out there appreciate all the effort you took, as well as the outstanding design and execution of the patterns by the designers. Keep up the great work and don’t be discouraged by a few catty comments.

In reading the comments I could not believe that I was on a knitters website, all of my knitting buddies are like family even in a competion setting so I was shocked to read some of these back biting comments. From one knitter to another, I think they are all magnificent, I voted on the one I liked best, Ozark Autumn.

It is very hard to be put into a position to defend one’s self when one – me, the owner of the store and the person who did all the photos with no pre-judgement and all good intentions in her heart – is attacked by anonymous posts.

Every stole featured here was done so with equal effort and no one has been favored over the others. In addition, I took as many frames of photos for each stole as I thought was necessary to present each design. Once again, no one was favored above others.

This competition is supposed to be one of friendship and of knitting community/family and I am saddened to see that it is being taken to a place a where I could not have ever foreseen or wished. Why?

I kindly request, please, lets keep it all positive and appreciate the fact that all participants have done a great job and they are all winners in my eyes. I can only hope and think that you would agree.

I have serious issues with this contest. ONE shawl photo took HOW MANY shots? It’s a great picture.

You shoould have taken a couple hundred more of each of the others so they could be presented on equal footing.

While all the stoles are beautiful, Rosi’s stands out above the rest. A number of people from my knitting group, including myself, had a problem voting or mistakenly voted for the first one (instead of New York City) not knowing where to click. It would be better if there was a separate area to vote after reviewing all the stoles so there was no confusion.

I have not been able to access the ability to vote. I would like to vote for Rosi G’s New York City shawl. Thanks.
