A Study on Simplicity and Science @wise1stheway - Tumblr Blog

knitbithebook’s first ever follower appreciation giveaway!

I hit 600 followers yesterday and I wanted to celebrate with a small giveaway. I can’t do a lot, but I can do this. :)

I don’t know how it happened, but for some reason I have two copies of each of these books and so I thought I could offer up the extra copies for a giveaway. There will be two winners and each winner will receive a book and a handknit bookmark made by me.

Up for grabs are:

The Distant Hours by Kate Morton (she writes beautiful historical fiction) and a green wool bookmark in some lovely seed stitch.

The Piano Shop on the Left Bank by Thad Carhart (one of my favorite books ever) and a multicolored wool bookmark (the yarn was called cosmos and it’s got greens and purples over black) in linen stitch.

The Rules:

US only, cannot ship outside the US. (I’m really sorry. I looked into it but shipping prices are ridiculous and I just can’t afford them).

You don’t have to be following me. I mean, it’s follower appreciation so it’d be nice, but I’m not going to check and make sure you’re following me.

Likes and reblogs count but don’t spam your followers. No giveaway blogs.

Winners will be drawn and notified on or around March 18, 2016.

Must be willing to give me your address over tumblr so I can send to you.

Must have your ask box or message system open so I can contact you.

Must respond within 48 hours or new winner will be chosen.

If under 18 must have parents permission to enter.

Do not define your identity based on the lowest points in your life.

A soulmate is someone who is willing to grow with you, who chooses to be with you until the end, and will love you through good and bad. It’s not about sunshine and laughter, it’s about mundane moments filled with unknowns.

wordsnquotes

Look at you. You’re young. And you’re scared. Why are you so scared? Stop being paralyzed. Stop swallowing your words. Stop caring what other people think. Wear what you want. Say what you want. Listen to the music you want to listen to. Play it loud as fuck and dance to it. Go out for a drive at midnight and forget that you have school the next day. Stop waiting for Friday. Live now. Do it now. Take risks. Tell secrets. This life is yours. When are you going to realize that you can do whatever you want?

Louise Flory (via wordsnquotes)

Everyone’s looking for the love of their life, but rarely does anyone set out to be the love of someone else’s life.

Working on it (:

I’ve learned to get really good at this - say one thing when I’m thinking about something else, act like I’m listening when I’m not, pretend to be calm and happy when I’m really freaking out. It’s one of the skills you perfect as you get older.
