Huzzah!
We hit 10,000 views and we've hit 100 posts and I promised you a give-away, so here it is!

| We'd have gone outside, but it was dark by the time I finished it... |
Yup, you get Melchett!
 |
| Artificial lighting provides a lovely artificial 'sunset' effect, no? |
No. You
don't get Melchett, but you do get the wonderful anorak that she's wearing.
 |
| Hood goes up, hood comes down. |
This hooded number was made by my own fair hands and the modern marvel of sewing machine technoology. The outer shell is a glorious retro print waterproof fabric and it's got a snuggly quilting cotton lining. It's based on the MakieLab hoodie pattern.

| Snuggly lining! |
Because it's not made out of stretch fabric, the fit can be a little snug. Would not recommend wearing your thickest jumper under it, but it works fine with shirts and dresses.
 |
| Melchett's lovely back end. |
It fits Blythe in a 'sort-of' fashion; obviously the hood doesn't fit. Elin rather likes it though.

| Cultured Blythes go skiing. |
As I'm super over-excited, there will be 3 additional items up for grabs...
 |
| Moooooooooooooos! |
Oh yes, the mo-onna-sticks are looking to travel! Obviously one has to go to the anorak winner, but you could be the proud recipient of one of the other three.
To be in the running to win the anorak or your very own mo-onna-stick, all you've got to do is comment on this post before 23:59 GMT on Wednesday the 14th of November. Please try to leave a valid email address (or if you don't want to do that, leave at least some sort of name/nickname for me to pick out of the hat... no good if we're all Mr Anonymous!). Winners will be drawn out of a hat (possibly a bear hat) on Thursday by either my lovely boyfriend or one of my cats, whichever is closer. I'll happily post anywhere in the world.
Please bear in mind that I do this for fun and I'm not a professional seamstress. The item is probably one of the best things I've ever made, but it does have its flaws! Don't look too closely at the stitching and don't be surprised if the snaps fall off...
