I would knit all sorts of yummy things to go around my neck with all of that yarn!

I would make someting from the Estonia Lace book, or a smoke ring cowl. I'm just starting to do fine lace patterns and would love to use something like this.

Interesting construction.  I love the look and would like to try it.  I also LOVE BB yarns...so beautiful!

I would knit the Yak Wrap first, followed by a vest, then a bag, then probably another wrap for a gift, then probably who knows.  

I've always wanted to try this yarn but never had the chance, if I won, I can definitly see maybe doing the Icelandic Shawl, or once I had the yarn infront of me, I'd be even more inspired to do several things with them, thanks so much for offering these beautiful yarns! Fleecy huggys~ Dora :)

I am going on a trip and was looking for somthing not too hot or bulky to take with and knit...this would be a great project and I so luv the color ...great for those morning beach walks..tootles

I would love to try this yarn. I have been wanting to try buffalo yarn for awhile but it is out of my price range. I would make myself either a sweater or a scarf. Something in a lace pattern that would make the colors sparkle.

I'm not sure what I'd make out of this yarn since I've never seen or heard  it.  From the description it sounds great and I'd like a chance to try it out.  I'm a fairly new knitter but find it relaxing.  I love makeing  wraps, hats, and gloves that I can give away to someone needing a outward expresion that someone cares.

Thank you to everyone who commented on this blog posting. We're now closing down the contest to win Bijou Basin yarn, but feel free to continue to comment. Again, thank you! And good luck :)

I have never worked with yak down.  I bet it is much softer than alpaca.  It looks beautiful.  I would love to knit a long shawl with a celtic pattern.  Thanks for this opportunity

OMG! The yarn looks wonderful!  I have never knitted with yak yarn before.  I bet it is even softer than alpaca. I have been wanting to knit an Irish shawl with the celtic knot.  Thanks for the give away contest.

Even w/o touching it, I can tell that this yarn would be very soft... I am looking forward to seeing Kristin's Wrapsody book and I would knit either the wrap shown here or a pattern from her book. Kristin's book seems to show new & creative designs for wraps that can appeal to all ages and styles.  

Hmm...Cables & Lace Beret (http://j.mp/g9pLLK) in Himalayan Trail - Clem's Lace Scarf (http://j.mp/eo9TQG) in Mountain Treks -  Samovar shawl (http://j.mp/gFjBLr) in Tibetan Dream - Wavy Feathers Wimple (http://j.mp/dPeFtH) in Fingering Weight - and Seeta fingerless mitts (http://j.mp/frVPOP) in Lhasa Wilderness. What a luxurious accessory wardrobe!

I would love to make this wrap and winning the yarn to make it would be even more special!

I would love to make this wrap and winning the yarn would make it even more special! Thanks for  the opportunity!

If I ever had a dream supply of  Bijou Basin Ranch  yak & Cormo yarn I would love to knit myself the Hampton Cardigan. This pattern is by Cecily Glowik MacDonald. Being a plus size person (requires 9 skeins) I definitely NEED a dream supply. The pattern is in "New England Knits: Timeless Knitwear with a Modern Twist by Cecily MacDonald and Melissa LaBarre". I can only DREAM.

I would knit a lacy shawl.  Here in the mountains, we have warm days and cool nights and shawls are the perfect item.  I'm totally addicted to making socks and can already feel my warm toes!    The yarn looks soft, warm and gorgeous!  

What a great fiber to knit with!  I'd like to try a vest and sweater for wool blend, a wrap and cowl, and spring top with the bamboo blend!  Sounds wonderful!

This is a beautiful wrap! I'd not heard of Yak down, bet it's lovely!

Looking forward to knitting Wrapsody's Summit American Yak Wrap and hoping to win Bijou Basin Ranch Yarns. Thank You.

bijou basin is fantastic yarn!

What fantastic yarn, can't wait to try it!

Warm and comforting wraps - for the head, for the neck, for the torso. Yummy.

Well, I live in the nasty cold Canada lol!  I would love to try this fabulous yarn!!!  I would make a cozy shawl and probably a couple of pairs of super soft and cozy socks :)  I love to knit and crochet!!!!  Especially with quality yarns. I so would love to win this yarn pack :)

the wrap technique interests me for use in both a shawl and "lap wrap".  I've a friend only now recovering from a near death walking pneumonia experience.  She is undergoing kidney dialysis 3 times weekly and I have wanted to make something uniquely hers that is warm yet light weight, uniquely textured and visually appealing.  I've found the pattern.  So, should I win the prize - hurray!!! Should I not, I still feel a winner - I've the inspiration and direction I sought to begin.  Now to see if there is a source for your yarn in the Portland OR area.

What scrumptious yarn! - If I won it I would definitely do the Summit American Yak Wrap pattern, but adapted as a baby blanket, for my scrumptious baby girl, who's 1 - she would love the texture and especially the beautiful edging, and as she's (definitely) the last of my 5 children, I can think of nothing more wonderful than wrapping her up in this yummy Bijou Basin Ranch yarn! If I had enough I would do blankets for each of my 3 daughters and hats for my 2 sons, and a shawl for me!

This looks like beautiful yarn.  I would like to try to make the yak wrap with it because I'm just starting to do some lace knitting and loving it.  This would be perfict.

I'm not sure exactly what I'd make. I'd do smaller projects and share them with friends and family.

I would love to win some of these fantastic fibers.I would love to make a shawl and maybe some scarves. Who am I kidding? I'd just love to have some to play with and let my imagination run wild.

If I win the yarn package, I would tackle the Summit American Yak Wrap. It's beautiful.

I would do a wrap, possibly the Summit American Yak Wrap.... Looks lovely.

I love Kristin.  She's taken me from a confirmed knitter who crochets when she has to to someone who will crochet now and again for fun.  Still a confirmed knitter at heart, but my horizons have been expanded.   This looks like a great project!

I'd work on another lace wrap with the ntural cream color of the Tibetan Dream.  The yarn sounds so wonderful and soft!

Not sure my comment I wrote was added, but I would love to win some of these amazing yarns....so velvety soft!

I attended Stitches 2011 and found this booth, there were couches, different yarns and textures on different needles displayed in plastic champagne glasses.  We were encouraged to sit, relax and try out these yarns.  I was lucky enough to grab an amazing beautiful greenish/khaki color (not sure the name of the yarn but remembered it was Yak and Alpaca) and knit a few rows with a pair of Signature circular needles.  Ahhh, the yarn felt soft and velvety in my hands!  I had to track down the booth and grabbed myself a pin -- I Love Yaks!

Eyeballing the fingering, Himalayan and the Tibetan Sock for something beaded and lacey.

The yarn so yummy!!!

I would knit a wrap...and I would have fun looking for which wrap to knit!

My latest addiction is lace, so I'd like to try a beaded lace shawl with the fingering, Himalayan or even the Tibetan Sock.  It sounds just wonderful to work with!

I love working with unusual fibers!  I would make a lacy cardigan and a shell with it.

What scrumptious looking yarn!  I can just imagine how luscious it would feel to knit this into the wonderful pattern shown above.  I sure hope I'm the lucky one!

could use a bit of luxury in my life right about now

It would be so hard to choose! I would probably knit a wrap and some small accessories like hats and fingerless mitts.

If there was a lady in my life at present I'd get yarn to make Ms. Omdahl's lovely wrap. Excellent modular design!

Since there is no lady, I'd make the man's cabled scarf  featured in the Spring 2009 issue, p.98 or so, adding a cable or two to the center for the finer Bijou Basin Ranch yarns. (I like a fairly wide scarf.) The prize package yarns are mixed blends and weights so I'd try to find small projects to match each quantity. Whichever one I like best, I'd then buy yarn for a nice classic cardigan, maybe adding some intarsia detailing.

BTW there's such a thing as a girlfriend/fiance/wife sweater, so if the random selection should come up with me I hope you don't discard it and try again! I would love to work with this yarn and I am good enough. I'd send you photos to show it!

Would love to knit the vest posted on Bijou Basin website that I have been drooling over for some time, and to use their yarn! What a dream!

Even though I love the Sand Dollar Belted Lace Cape from a Knitting Wrapsody I think this yarn would give me the perfect excuse to try a fair isle sweater.  I have never gotten around to trying any color work yet and this yarn set would give me the perfect excuse to try!

This sounds like such great yarn... have never seen it before.

Fingering weight: socks of course... if this would be good for socks. Otherwise, maybe a headband for skiing?

A long lace scarf of the merino mix.

Alpaca? oooohhh mittens, maybe colorwork with some other yarns?

Bamboo mix? Maybe a hat but, then again if I like it, maybe buy more and make a sweater!

Such possibilities!!

If I won, I would tackle the wrap. I have a wedding to go to in the fall, and this would be the perfect addition.

I would love to try an odd row number pattern.  Very intriguing.  I'm fairly new to lace knitting and this would be a nice thing to add.

That's a lot of yarn!  I would make a mother/daughter sweater set for my niece and 2 year old grand niece.  She loves to dress up like her mom and it's still cold in Sweden so they'd get a lot of use out of them.

Let's see. I could knit mitts, hats, scarves, a wrap for the neck, a wrap for the torso,toys for me, I would just bury my fingers and face in the wool and dream.

A great book - I own it - and what fabulous yarn.  I would love to win the contest.  Thanks, Marla

I'd start with a wrap, maybe the Yak, but probably my own variation. I'd LOVE to win the yarn for this project! =)  Thanks! Megan Langford

I would start with a wrap, maybe the Yak, but probably my own variation. Would LOVE to win the yarn to make it! =)

I just watched the episode today about the yak yarn and was yelling that I definately want some! I am going to tackle the Summit American Yak Wrap most definately.

Lovely yarn - I bet it's so soft!

REALLY love the color choice and yarn texture the whole thing comes together really nice, love how casual and classy the piece is as well LOVE IT!!!

I will look great in a shawl made from this luxurious yarn.

I loved it very great design just fantastic and fab !! :)

I don't knit~ but don't count me out!!! Our hospital is holding a public awareness campaign for Shaken Baby Syndrome and will be placing a call out for all knitters to make and donate Purple baby caps to build awareness of this tragic and preventable injury. All yarn (hopefully different shades of purple?) will be donated to the knitters.

I love Bison.  They are so fun to watch.  When I lived in Wyoming I was amazed how fast they can move and how high they can jump.  I would make a cozy wrap!

I would knit a shawl and then have to play around before deciding what else to knit!

I want! :)

What lovely yarn, would definitely make a wrap of some kind.

I would love to make socks, a hat, a scarf, or maybe the Summit American Yak Wrap. I downloaded the pattern for the wrap. Thanks for the chance to win.

Do I have to decide? I want to feel it, touch it first. Since there are different weights, I am sure that I would knit a few different things. Definitely an oversized cowl (I like that idea), a hat....we'll have to see what else! If I win!

Love, Love, Love your stuff!!!!!!

LOVE IT!!!

Very nice looking wrap.

Very nice looking wrap.

I'd make a lovely lace shrug to go with everything! The yarn looks just like bliss to knit, and double bliss to wear!

The Summit American Yak Wrap is intriguing! I think I would have to give it a try!

Lovely yarn - and a very generous gift!  Thank you for the opportunity.

Ooh I love this yarn I got a small Hank at last years wool market in Estes park I have so many things in mind I could knit if I won a shawl fingerless Mits a cowl it would be a tough decision but lots of fun sorting through the posabilitys!

would love a chance to knit with that yarn!!!

After hearing it gets softer and softer, I fell in love...I really like the cardi wrap...it can be worn many ways...I'm not sure I am good enough to knit that, but would try if I had the yarn:)....actually, I try it anyway...neat idea of having a wrap with armholes...never saw that before.....I just love yarn...

My first thoughts for this yarn are to use them all in a single garment, using different stitches/textured knitting and changing patterns often - a cape would be a great project to do this and I have a design in mind. Time to get out a sketch pad! :)

This makes me want a farm so i can start making my own yarn!! Love those natural colors and fibers.

I would knit a lovely pair of glittens and a scarf if I had some of this beautiful yarn.

I would love to knit my niece and her daughter matching hats, mittens, and scarves if I won this yarn.  It's gorgeous!

oh my goodness, tackling the yak wrap is a dream :-) i'm game for anything. especially winning that yarn :-) hahahaha

Has to be lace.

This looks like lovely yarn.  I don't know what I would make, but it would sure be fun to win and figure it out!  

WOW!  I'd definitely make something delicate and pretty for me and possibly something for my Mom as she knits things for me but has never had anybody give her a knitted gift...

This would be a dream to win! The wrap is BEAUTIFUL!

Thank you so much for the chance to win.   Have joined up and downloaded the free pattern.   Looks excellent.  Came via Knitting Daily on facebook.  Regards Vicki

I would knit up a lace shawl  & fingerless for my daughter. =)

I love the way this knitted garment looks crocheted.  I crochet, too, and it was hard for me to tell at first.  This is something that I want to, definitely, try.

I would knit this wrap!

Oh cool! I've wanted to get some yak yarn for a while now, so how perfect is this!  :o)  

Hey, I`m from Germany and I love it to knit. It would be a plasure to knit with this yarn. I`m nosey how it feels on my skin. Please give me a chance ;)

If I won the yarn, I would want to make that wrap. That is a great technique using the row of yo's to pick up the stitches for the next row..

I absolutely LOVE the look and the versatility of this wrap - will definitely knit this whether I win or not - but I hope I win :-)

The yarn looks wonderful.

Yarn is beautiful! Probably a sweater w/ the yarn!

Mittens, clogs, lace shawl .... possibilities are endless!

With my skeins of fluffy yak,

I’d knit a scarf for Grandpa Jack,

yak socks for toes as warm as toast,

and a fine, fine shawl of which I’d boast.

But if, alas I do not win

I will not hit my stash of gin.

Instead my stash of yarn I’ll seek

and stay home knitting for a week.

I'm very excited about this book! I'd love to knit the yak wrap, and I think that fingering weight would love to be a shawlette.

I am so wanting to try my hand at knitting lace with a proper quality yarn. This looks like the perfect yarn and I love the Cardi Wrap!  I would love to win!!

Decisions, decisions! I'm not yet sure what I'd knit with the yarn, but I have a "portfolio" of projects whose pictures I've saved using Evernote. I'd love to explain to friends that a finished project was made of YAK yarn since it seems so exotic. I'm also participating in a pay-it-forward handmade gift "club" this year, so I might pass along a finished yak project if I were to win.

I'd knit a shawl, and a scarf , something to donate for a terminally ill or chemotherapy patient. And a scarf for me! :)

Oooh I've been wanting to try some Bijou! I'm sort of on a wrap-kick, so I definitely think I'd use it for a nice wrap or shawl. :-) I've got a bunch in my queue that would be perfect for some of this yummy yarn! I need to get that book, too - it's got some great patterns in it!

A lace wrap is the perfect thing to knit with yak--most other garments would be too warm.  I've eaten yak meat and yak yogurt--I'd love to knit with yak down!

I'd make some lovely, lacey shawls!

Sooooo pretty!  It would have to be a beautiful wrap!

Such an interesting fiber!  I can't wait to find some that I can touch!

Would love to wrap my needles with this yarn!  Natural fibers and natural colors are my favorites.  I would work up something cozy for my lovely daughter, a hard working mom, wife, and elementary school teacher who deserves something "special".

Ooh, I would love to knit the wrap with that delicious yarn :)  And then some hats and mitts because it will be cold here for a couple more months!

I would HAVE to knit this gorgeous wrap if I won!  All my knitting friends would be so jealous!  :-D

Would love to knit w/ yak!  Thank you for the chance to win! I also used your site to locate a LYS!

I think I'd like to trythe wrap shown in the video. I want to buy the book but haven't been able to find it in a bookstore. I suppose I'll have to buy it online.

I would try my hand a a sweater vest. My Grandmother taught me to knit as a young girl (5th grade) but I had not knitted for quite some time until 2-years-ago when I picked it back up to mourn the loss of my Grandmother at the age of 104. I wish she was here to see that I have begun again and to ask her questions when I get stuck!

Hello

What a great contest!

My dog does not like to freeze and they have been cold in Sweden this year, so I could make a sweater for her, was perfect for a dog with a yak sweater.

Hope for luck in the contest

I would love to win this yarn!  I would probably use it to make a wrap to give to someone special for Christmas.  (Yes, I plan ahead!)

After I would stop feeling it because it oh so soft.

I would make hat mittens scart and socks they would be so soft on the feet and warm

and a wonderful shaw.

I love the lace pattern and the colors - looks so warm! I would probably leave the armholes out as I like to wrap more like a blanket than cardigan.

Love the patten, love the yard, would LOVE to win! Thanks!

These look great!  I would make a great looking shawlette and a few accessories.

I'd love to work up a lovely loose cowl with an Aran-type design on it of the Bijou Basin Ranch yarns with some fingerless mitts to match.

I would love to try this yarn....I am always freezing and have heard such great things about yak down!  I would knit a wonderful shawl!!!

That wrap looks lovely!  Even is I didn't win I'd love to try and knit it.

I would knit up a wispy cardigan for the spring months. The yarn looks gorgeous!

I love the idea of reversible lace. I think I would make a delux shawl. The pattern is on ravelry.  

After watching the videos I am inspired to knit the Summit American Yak Wrap  it looks beautiful.

Would love to try this out!!!

Oh a shawl, but what pattern???? Oh the fun of it!

The yarn is just beautiful. Would love to give that wrap a go.

Barb

what a great opportunity to try new patterns/yarns

I've just recently discovered yak yarn! It's so lovely.  I would just love to knit a Chic Knits Mondo Cable Pulli with it.  It would be warm and snuggly for sure!

Hard to say what I would knit. I could see a nice cushy scarf or wrap, or maybe some mittens and a hat too.

I'd make a super soft lacy cowl, a wrap or shawl, a pair of mitts, some deliciously cozy socks, then see what was left over...

They all sound like wonderful yarns. I would definitely make something to wrap around my neck.

I would love to knit any of the wrap patterns and I would LOVE to try this yarn!!!!

-Jessica

If won, a New Zealand Tribute to Orenburg lace shawl or Icarus shawl would be interesting to knit from the lace yarns.

I belong to a prayer shawl group and would be very proud to add a shawl made out of this scrumptious yarn. I have also been wanting to try my hand at a nice lace shawl. A special baby blanket with this would be a wonderful heirloom.  Next I would make warm hats, scarves and mittens for my famiy.  Thanks for the opportunity to dream.

if I win, I will make  the most beautiful blanket

I would knit a beautiful blanket using all the colors.

I'd love to be able to make the Sand Dollar Belted Lace Cape from, A Knitting Wrapsody, and think the neutral colors of the yarns of Bijou Basin Ranch would make a fabulous wrap.

-Oops in looking at the yardage of the Cape on Ravelry it looks like I'd need much more than the prize! Well looking at my Favorites page I'd also love to make Daybreak, by Stephen West in the Himalaya Trail. Oh and the Maia Sholderette by Rosemary Hill would look just yummy in the Tibetan Dream.

Would love to try this yarn!  The pattern is lovely and would be so comfy knit in this yarn.

This wrap is in my que!  I have KDTV 500, and I've been wanting to make it since I saw it in Episode 513!  I'd love to try that yarn too!

I would love to make a beautiful lacy wrap.  

I think I would make the Summit American Yak Wrap. I love the detailing!

I'd add a turquoise to these beautiful earth tones and create a gorgeous tank and cardi set.

I would love to play with some of this yarn. I've felt yak yarn at my LYS and it is so soft!

I'd make a wrap of some sort, not sure what though.

What fantastic yarns! I'd love t make a wrap (or two), mitts and matching hat, or....

What fantastic yarns! I'd love t make a wrap (or two), mitts and matching hat, or....

What fantasticv yarn! I'd love to make a wrap (or two) mitts and matching hat, or....

So much beautiful yarn! I would start with knee socks, a shawl and a hat!

My husband would love a yak hat for next year.  He would design and I would knit.

I would love to create a beautiful wrap like this in a gorgeous yarn like this!  Both are wonderful.  I have always loved lace and i prefer natural fibres for my yarn.

What to do with the Yarn?  First, gaze upon the hanks to fix the colors in my mind; second, fondle it to allow the softness and soul of the yarn permeate me;  third, touch it before I sleep to dream of inspiration for a project; fourth, consider the projects that come during my dream, and lastly, pick up needles and begin.  All  orts (needlework word) would to into my ort bag for a future pin cushion.  That's what I would do with  my winnings....

What beautiful colors! I would be knitting a blanket that I have been dying to make but don't have enough money to buy the yarn!

There's a lovely hat/scarf/mitten combo I've been waiting to knit, and these lovely yarns would be perfect.

These yarns sound terrific!  If I won so many fine skeins, I'd try to produce as many hats and mittens as possible to share the luxury with family members but reserve sufficient yardage to tackle a moebius pattern I've longed after for myself.  Sigh.  Fiber fantasies.

I'll be making the yak wrap!  dayanak@gmail.com

Five different yarns . . . Christmas gifts for my five siblings!  Hats, gloves, socks, scarves, mittens . . . stitches with lots of texture to show off the fabulous feel of the yarn!

minersjk1@aol.com

I've been wrapping up knitting for others--a win like this yarn would be a great chance to make something for myself.  (Fingers crossed!)

Thanks!

I'd love to have this wool, I'd make a pair of mittens and a cowl as I think it would feel wonderful on.

Beautiful wrap,I would love to try this yarn and make the yak wrap!! I love all the books too,I have a few on my Christmas wish list.Thanks for the wonderful giveaway!!

TO ALL THE LADIES PLEASE GIVE THIS SOUTH AFRICAN KNITTER A CHANCE TO WIN, BECAUSE WITH THE EXCHANGE RATE I CANT BUY THE YARN AND WE HAVE NO SUCH YARN IN MY COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!THANKS HELENE

I just got Knitting Wrapsody for my birthday after my friend found out I was in love -LOVE - with the cover shrug. And there are so many other beauties within the book, so hard to choose which one would be e first to attack if I won this stash! Would any work for the shrug? I would love to try it in yak.

Wow, I think I can finally bring myself to try something in lace. It's just too gorgeous to not give it a try.

Hat, mittens/gloves, socks.  The Bijou Basin Ranch yarns are so tosty warm in garments that only a little is needed.

I love the natural colors.  I'd do a fair isle sweater.  I've also had the opportunity to see your yarns in person.  Simply beautiful.

I'm a huge alpaca fan and am most interested to see how the yak/Cormo compares. The Summit cardi/wrap for me, and Vine Lace caps for my two granddaughters would be the first three items off my needles.

Wow - What a generous gift!  I would love to try yak yarn - and agree with most everyone else who has posted that I would like to make something that will end up close to my skin.  I would like to try a lacy scarf (I've never done lace before), some fingerless gloves, and a pair of socks - for me.  Then I would like to work up some chemo caps for the local Cancer Center - and I would share the rest with a friend who is a fantabulous knitter that loves natural fibers.  I hope I win, but want to wish good luck to all who enter!

Not sure if my information is needed - here it is just in case:

I will knit the Belle felted wrap in Bijou Basin yarn

I will knit the Belle felted wrap in Bijou Basin yarn

Yak or no yak every garment in this book is a stunner.  Of course if I won I would be all over making this shawl or the beautiful crocheted shawl pattern bijou has.  Can you imagine making a shawl out of yak and then giving it a felting job!,

I added a comment, but did not see it at the end. If I have two I am sorry. I would make a  beautiful blanket to cover up with and keep warm next winter. I cannot believe how many people have posted for this. Wow. Not much chance to win, but hope whoever wins enjoys all of that beautiful fiber.

I've only admired that beautiful yarn in a local shop.  It's so soft, perfect for knitting up something that will lie close to the skin, a lovely scarf or given enough a short sleeved sweater, perfect for spring!

Amazing yarn! With it, I'd knit lace, lace, and more lace, and yes, it could end up as a Summit American Yak Wrap.

I would make me a beautiful, soft, warm blanket to keep me warm next winter. The natural colors would accent my living room well.

I love this wrap pattern.  It could be worn with the arm holes in sleeveless style and could it be worn as a shawl if it became colder?  I'd love to try it with Bijou Basin Ranch yarn.  I haven't tried that yet.

What a lovely design - I love wraps, but with the little arm holes this one would stay in place beautifully.

In Australia we are heading into Autumn (Fall) and Winter so if I won I will be attempting this wrap, with matching hat and mittens - if I have enough I'll also have a go at some toe-up ankle/bed socks!

Perfect for the cool evenings down here!

oooooooo <tenatively pets yarn>

I would knit tall warm socks and then my feet would finally be warm.  Because of my heart my feet are often cold.  I am always on the lookout for warm *and* durable socks.

~jessica

The yarn looks like it would make pretty scarves. I look forward to seeing more projects knitted with the Bijou Basin ranch yarn.

DT

Well, if I could win - I'd make a lovely shawl for my daughter! - The Wrap might just be IT!

How do we win the yarn?

I love the fact that it gets softer after many washes. I would make a sweater from my grandson!

What beautiful yarns!

I'd love to knit a cabled bag with it.  

I'm sure I'll get more ideas once I hodl it in my hands!  Everything changes when I can touch it.

yummy, scrumptious yarns!  shawls, i'd love to knit shawls with these yarns!

I would make a wrap for my mom who is confined to a wheelchair, and a muff to keep her hands warm when she has to go outside. I would also have to make a toy for my cat, BijouBaby. Bijou Basin for BijouBaby!

I love yak fiber and the Bijou Basin people are so great.

I saw the recent episode of Knitting Daily with Bijou Basin and am now lusting after some of that yarn. The vest the owner was wearing was utterly luxurious.

Such beautiful yarn & an ingenious pattern! The American Yak Wrap would be perfect for my sweet elderly mom who taught me to knit & and was never without a project in her lap. Mom can't knit anymore - she has arthritis - so I'd love to make this for her.

After viewing Kristin on episode 513, I must knit the American Yak Wrap!  What a great concept ... I love that it would be reversible and that it would have arm openings.  I wear a lot of shawls and enjoy most the ones that I can "secure" so they don't constantly fall open while I'm walking or just going through my day.  I've downloaded the pattern so I hope I win some yarn :)  

With such a great variety of yarns, I'm thinking rectangular wrap that can double as a lap blanket. Looks gorgeous.

Kristin's designs are always fabulous! I'd take advantage of the warmth of yak and make a vest and mittens.

I'd make a gorgeous wrap/sweater for the warmer weather that didn't add bulk or weight....yummy.  Yes, I'd love to win the yarn.  Thanks

I'd knit a wrap and fingerless mitts.

I'd love to try knitting with Yak. A wrap of some sort is what I'd make. Yes, probably the Summit American. It's gorgeous!!

I need to try Yak. A wrap of some sort is what I'd make with it.  Yes, I think the Summit American.

just got my book and dvd by Kristin Omdahl - "knitting wrapsody"  and i love the American Yak Wrap i hope to win your contest because the yarn looks beautiful  i wanted to tell you about her book and my experiences --  especially the knitted skirts which look deceptively easy.  i really want to try the Tree of Life Ruana even though i've never done pleats before.  Kristin's dvd makes pleats look deceptively easy.  i've found knitted pleat videos on you tube!  The video you have on your blog now is on the dvd that came with the book there are many easy projects in the book as well as challenging ones....the motif in the Lelani Wrap looks like hairpin lace technique i was hoping i can use hairpin lace instead of knitting the motifs i learned about hairpin lace in Kristin Omdahls' other book "Crochet so Fine".  So i've been looking at videos' all over the web on that as well. Since Omdahl uses crochet style conversion to knitting i think the blending of the two in the Lelani wrap will be great!!  Last but not least if I can say one thing i must make besides the American Yak wrap it is the "Infinity" Cardi wrap with sleeves because the technique on the trim and the sleeves looks like crochet but it's knit and the "Nerina" ruched ruffled scarf are beautiful.  i must also make the "I do" diamond lace scarf and the "Lucky clover" scarf.  i can see weeks and hours of work ahead of me so i better get started!!!! thanks Kristin and Knitting Daily TV for your fantastic Videos on YOutube.com as well as your great books.  

What a tough question! I love the natural colors and I have knit with these lovely yarns before. They are so warm and beautiful to work with. I have some of the hot pink too and it is a beautiful color.

I think what I would make with it are some cowls, hats and gloves. Simply because this yarn is soft and perfect next to the skin and also very warm. I don't wear many shawls but fancy scarves would be great!

For once, I would knit the wrap for myself instead of someone else!  I'm always interested in new designs, patterns and the yarns look lovely.  I've already purchased the book and don't know where to begin!

I'd use the yarns to knit several lengthwise scarves or shawls, showcasing different lace stitches.

I'd use the yarns to knit several lengthwise scarves or shawls, showcasing different lace stitches.

I am not sure what I would do with such lucisous fiber. Probably have a good snuggle first of all.

If I'm so fortunate as to win this yarn, I'd start that entrelac cardigan I've been delaying until I find the perfect yarn. I'd also make another one of the beautiful shawl's from Kristin's collection, this time without adding the Medusa head, so that I can wear it more places than my Latin class and Latin teacher functions : )

Love the yarn!  I would make hat, scarves and mitts for the whole family!

I can visualize this yarn in a serape-like stripe cardi. Warm, luxurious and practical is the combo I'd go for.

PLEASE PLEASE LET ME BE THE WINNER!!!!IN SOUTH AFRICA NO SUCH YARN AVAILABLE. PLEASE PLEASE MAKE ME THE LUCKY ONE AS I LOVE KRISTIN"S WORK AND HAVE BEEN ABLE TO BUY SOME VIA DOWNLOADS.LOTS OF WARM SOUTH AFRICAN GREETINGS HELENE I WANT TO KNIT THE WRAP!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd love to knit a shawl and hat and investigate patterns that would show off this lovely fibre.

since there is so much of it, i would makes hats and socks (what a combination) for a few friends

I would make a cute top using the Bijou Basin yarn.  The only thing I have made for myself lately is a teacozy, and I would like to make at least one project that I can wear!

I agree with rainmomma's comment, that is a lot of yarn. How wonderful a prize this will be for the lucky winner. ( hope it's me ;-)

Now, what to craft with it, hmmm.... I have been in a somewhat warmer southern state for the last several years, but this fall I am taking off and heading North-Northwest, so I think I shall need all sorts of "keep-me-warm" things. My plan includes fingerless gloves, a button up cowl, a long sleeve shrug, house slippers, and dare I say it, "socks!"

That should keep me busy, and warm.

Thank you Interweave for making so many wonderful patterns and helpful tutorials available to us.

Clicking on the "add" sent my comment into limbo I guess, because it's not showing.  If I won, I'd knit narrow strips of different stitches to make a sampler shawl.

If I won the yarn package, I'd knit the wrap, but use a different lace stitch for each narrow strip.

I would knit  a lacy cowl, some fingerless gloves and a pair of socks with this exquisite yarn.

I'd love to knit some fingerless gloves, socks, scarf or maybe a nice bag.  The options are limitless!

I would love to knit this wrap, I just downloaded the pattern. Might have to substitute another yarn though since I probably won't get chosen ^_^

This is my first time here.  I like reading about other peoples' talents and projects. There's a lot of nice things to see on this site.  I looking forward to seeing it all.  Thank you.

With the Bijou Basin yarns, I will make a blanket to donate to Safe Nest, a non-profit safe haven for domestic violence victims. Safe Nest offers women and their children shelter in hidden places to escape from domestic abuse and to find resources to help them leave abusive relationships and navigate into healthy lives. Often the people arrive with just the clothes on their backs. Blankets are always welcome. I enjoy the meditative process of knitting blankets and their opportunities to explore new stitch patterns with the knowledge that someone somewhere will benefit from the final creation. I hope to make one with your yarns! Thanks, Linda

I prefer crochet -- and will find some projects to do the yarn justice!  :)

If I won I'd have to share the Yak Love:

The Himalayan Trail to my mom to knit a pair of The Soldier's Gomlitts from KDTV for my nephew in the Marines.  

Mount Treks to my daughter for a cowl, she's almost 12 and ready for her first real project--who wouldn't end up a life long knitter after using this yummy yarn for their first project.  

Tibetan Dreams to my sock knitting friend I took to Stitches West who fell in love with it at their booth.  

Fingering to my friend who loves to knit on size 2 needles, she'd make a great head scarf for our mutual friend who is battling cancer.

And Lhasa I'd have to buy 4 more balls so I could make the Wrap Front Shrug from  Bijou Basin that I *love*.  

It's too extravagant to keep it all to myself.

I would make Kate Gilbertson's Clapotis, a pair of fingerless mitts and a fisherman's scarf.

I love the natural colors!

Oooh, how beautiful!  I'm seeing a Faroese lace shawl or shawlette since I now covet a Summit cardi-wrap!

I would love the opportunity to use this soft yarn to knit some things for my elderly friends who have sensitive skin and seem to be so cold all the time.

I have lusted after this yarn for a while and would definitely make a lace wrap, possibly the American Yak Wrap or another from the Knitting Wrapsody book.  Each time I see this yarn I sigh an "if only" ...just like I am now.

I have all ready used Bijou Basin yarn to knit the two color cabled hat that was in Fon's and Porter magazine. The yarn worked up beutifully. The color contrast was good and I have received many compliments on the hat. I am wanting to make a matching scarf and mittens. I think it would be avery striking ensemble. With the lace weight yarn I think a reversible wrap or a lace shawl would be nice. Actualy I think any of the yarn would be wonderful to work with.  Carol Baskett

I'd start with socks.....oh, to dream

I'm not sure what I'd make, but I'd love to try it!

I can't even begin to imagine having all that beautiful and exotic yarn in my stash!  I would like to make a lace hat to cover the bald spots my stupid RA medicine leaves, to make some lovely lace shawls and a beautiful graduation present for my best friend when she finished law school.

Contest Entry: depending on the yardage available I would embark on a piece inspired by several patterns, but with a number of personal modifications. Smaller yardage would create a lovely lacey shawl, larger amounts would be transformed into a lux and snug sweater.

I would either try the wrap (I am not a wrap person at all- but this one is just too pretty and the technique is just too interesting so you got me!) or a brioche scarf- My son gave me KNITTING BRIOCHE for Christmas, Depends how much yarn I might win!

I'd love to knit a cosy wrap to keep me warm all winter. I like how the natural colours look together.

I'd knit a soft, cosy wrap to keep me warm all winter. Love the combination of different natural colours.

I would definitely make the wrap, and some scarves.  Definitely some lace projects!

I would love to try the Summit cardi-Wrap since it looks like something that would be practical to wear.  I also enjoy anything reversible. I have never worked with any of these fibers so that alone is exciting to me. Fingers crossed!

What a beautiful pattern, and the yarn looks divine.  If I won, I would make hats, scarves, mitts, for my family.  I want to have a go at Kristin's wrap too - but in some of their gorgeous dyed colours.

I think I'd make a nice soft wrap for travelling, maybe with a fair-isle pattern in it for interest

Oh - I would love to knit a beautiful hat, or lace neck warmer, or a bolero jacket.  Ravelry has several free bolero patterns that would look beautiful with any of these yarns!

that is some beautiful stuff!

OOOh, for "touch screen" where you can feel the yarn through the monitor ;-)

My fingers are itching to try the luscious yarns  

I just visited this site via Knitting Daily newsletter.  I love the Summit lace wrap.  Lace knitting is one of my favorite forms of knitting and this looks like a lovely lacy wrap.  The first item I would make is this wrap, if I won the yarn.  Maybe then, some socks and a scarf.  Who knows the possibilites are endless.  And real animal yarns are so luscious.  Thank you for sharing your ideas.  

Karen at karen.l.walker@gvtc.com

I would love so much to win the gorgeous yarns being offered.  I design my own knitwear so I would probably make a cowl, shawl and some lovely baby items for future grandchildren.  I have never used these yarns before so it would be a real treat to experiment and see what I could come up with.  Thank you for the awesome opportunity.  I will pray that I win.  Christina Pridie from Peterborough Ontatrio

This yarn is new to me. I think I'd knit first a shawl.

I'd love to knit my husband a pair of socks!  Yaks are such cool animals.

Beautiful stuff!  I want to have it in hand before I decide what to make with it.  Hopefully, it will speak to me!  I have been wanting to make some cabled pillows.  I think these will be great.  

The Summit American Yak Wrap is so lovely I would try it, but first I'd have to go through the book and see if anything inspired me!

I think this yarn would be perfect for an Estonian shawl, like the Maikell Shawl from Knitted Lace of Estonia.  It looks like the Tibetan Dream would make a wonderfully lightweight and warm version of the Maikell Shawl.

I have always wanted to try yak, so I hope I win. I am a much better knitter than crocheter, so I will probably knit an assortment of lacy accessories instead of crocheting the jacket.

Best,

Jamie

what a neat project.  Iam adding it to my line up of things to try.

I think the Bijou Spun yarns deserve to become something by Anne Hanson...anything by Ann Hanson!

I have ordered A Knitting Wrapsody and would love to make the wrap on the cover for myself.  I have knit wraps and shrugs for my daughter and granddaughter and if I won, I would 'surround' myself with this luxurious yarn.

A lovely scarf and patterned mitts would be divine also!

I love the wrap!  it's gorgeous.  I plan on making it.

I love the wrap!  it's gorgeous.  I plan on making it.

I would definitely do a cowl, they're my favorite thing to knit.  The yarn looks so yummy and luxurious, I would absolutely love the chance to try it out!

I love the novelty of this cardi-wrap with the reversible lace pattern...I'd definately give it a try if I win this yarn!

I would like to knit a cozy ribbed cap with a patterned cuff in several natural shades and simple reversible ribbed scarf to match

Yummy yarns!  They look sooo soft and warm!  I really think Kristin's wrap looks clever.  I love the stitch style and the way it's made up but I'm not sure that I'd wear it - not much of a wrap girl.

I just learned about this yarn when I got invited to Stitches West by a friend at the last minute.  I **LOVE** it and have been coveting it ever since.  I would love to do the Dual Cable Hat & Fingerless Gloves or the belle Felted Wrap from Bijou Spun Patterns.  Or a pair of fabulous socks!!  I'd love to win this one!

since most of the yarn names seem to be inspired by the himalayas, i would make my mom who goes to tibet every summer, a shawl.  she would love those colors too.

Beautiful animals. I'd love to knit anything in your wonderful yarn !

Can you just feel the softness already. Blended with glossy bamboo? Merino? These could make a cushy hat & scarf, or luxe bed sox for my beloved friend who suffers from chilled feet. She was inquiring in a roundabout way if cashmere sox were hard to repair. I played dumb, but I'm plotting my next move.

I also need to find that Blush color, fast! A bolero is calling me.

What beautiful yarn! Looks perfect for some warm socks, a scarf & mittens for our cold Wisconsin winters. I would love to win some!

I would love to make a wrap with this beautiful yarn!

It took me 40 years to finally try knitting and 3 months in, I'm in deep! If you can believe this, I thought fingerless gloves would be an easy, first project. I bought a pair of bamboo DPN's and then realized I needed 3 more to do the diamond cable. So, rather than leave my house on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving 2010, I used 6 grades of sandpaper and made 3 needles from bamboo skewers from Smart & Final. They work beautifully because I made them only 5" long, which is perfect for working in the round on a glove!

So, I had to crack the code of the downloaded pattern (what's "T3F" and "pfkb?!).  A new friend I made while hiking the Grand Canyon explained a few things, like what a PM (place marker)…and that I was starting on a project that is not for beginners. Well, if I am challenged, I pursue with a vengeance.

I've since knitted 5 pairs in different merino wools as gifts by request. I got bored, so I played one night with "kfb" and "pfkb" and doing my  own mathematic expansion patterns, knitting a Stevie Nicks-type lace extension out of mohair on a pair of gloves. It flairs out and ruffles! You can't help but feel like a happy girl when you wear them. They long but stop to let you show off your manicure. For a loose, lacy effect, I made 5 DPN's out of fatter bamboo chopsticks. Hey, if skewers work, I figured good ohashi (japanese for chopsticks) would work, too.

If I got my hands on some Bisou Basin Ranch yak yarn, I'd try my hand at designing a short, stylish, open pattern sweater to replace my missing Anthropologie sweater…but I'd do it my way, however that evolves!

I love this yarn! I think it would make a perfect lacy scarf for the cold New England winters. :-)

What a generous prize! I always find it funny that yak are such big, hulking hairy beasts but yield such light, fluffy fiber! Certainly wouldn't be the first thought to come to mind, would it? I would make so many delightful things with this prize, including something snuggly for my mother-in-law, to protect her from the frozen north (Buffalo NY)!

I've got some beautiful shawl patterns that would look beyond beautiful in these marvelous yarns especially these colors.

I would love to win these gorgeous yarns, and would love to make a shawl for my 88-year-old mother to keep her cozy!

Just ordered 'A Knitting Wrapsody'.  Can't wait to try the reversible wrap.  Also LOVE your book, "Crochet So Fine" - a masterpiece - there's nothing like it.  Would love to try Bijou yarns too!

If I were to win the yarn, I would definitely knit the Yak wrap and a matching hat.

Oops, I should have added that I would maybe make a lacy cowl or a cable-lace combination scarf for myself.

What a beautiful wrap!

i never worked with yak before, maybe I really should look into it.

I have a wrap that I knit that really needs replacing - that would be high on the priority list, but my precious daughter is 3000 miles away at college, and something for her would likely win out...  I'd have to figure out WHAT, though - as she's in the wintery northeast - I doubt that would be a problem!

I'd like to try the Summit American Yak Wrap. The construction looks intriguing and wearable, and I think it would be fun to knit.

I'd love to make an unmatching set of accessories for my Mom, sister-in-law, two best friends and - of course - myself.

I would love to win some of this yarn.  I would knit a shawl or a cardigan if I won.  I have looked at their yarn once before.

The softness of the yak yarn really appeals to me so I should like to use it for some lovely cosy socks to relax in the house in, along with a snuggly wrap and mittens

I would love to knit something similar to the Summit Wrap with fair isle designs of my own.  The yarn is beautiful and the choice of colors inspires me.

I would be greedy and want enough yarn to make a lacy cardi.  Perfect for sititng in airconditioned meeting in the summer time.

OMG what a fantastic lace wrap pattern and includes armholes instead of wrapping around shoulders!!  I will be knitting the wrap, definitely socks and a scarf using the lace pattern from the wrap.

How gorgeous! I've had the keffiyeh wrap from Modern Top-Down Knitting on my list for some time, but I might find something special in A Knitting Wrapsody. I peeked at the patterns on Ravelry, and the Echo Reversible Drop-Stitch Mobius might be the one!

Hmmm. .....  I might knit the wrap, it's very cute, or perhaps some arm warmers and a hat.  Definitely something cozy.  

I would definitley knit the Summit American Yak Wrap from "A Knitting Wrapsody."  I already own the book, and I have already been eyeing this project. I would modify needle size for gauge, as the yarns range from fingering to lt. worsted. That yarn looks yummy! -Kathryn

It would be a pleasure to knit something special with this yarn

I'd make some yummy slippersocks!

The yarns look just lovely! I would knit a fair isle sweater with such a lovely collection.

Thanks for an interesting and educational website!

I would to make an iPad sleeve, socks for my mom, fingerless mitts, and a bunny.

Wow!  What a generous prize!!  If I won, I would knit warm winter accessories.

I'm thinking scarves, hats & mittens or maybe a shrug. Once my fingers got in it, I'd know for sure!

I would just love to knit anything that would lie close to my skin from this yarn.

This is a real treat - these skeins become a chemo cap for my aunt, mobius neckscarves for my daughter and a cosy wrap for my mom! Sounds like there would be enough for me to have a lacy neck wrap, too.

Sounds like luxury Christmas gifts for next year for everyone on my knitworthy list! The Tibetan Dream would be a shawl, and the others would become lacy scarves or cowls. It would make deadline knitting an absolute pleasure to work with such lovely yarn :)

An American Yak wrap for me, of course!

Just viewed the wrapsody and the Bijou Basin Ranch interview - am interested in testing a variety of yak yarn as to it's texture and ability to be knitted well.  Thanks for having a short segment on this interesting fiber.

I've never tried this yarn before.  When I zoomed in on the photo, I was amazed how soft and inviting it looks.  I have a pattern that is a hat and scarf combined.  I would love to knit that.  And I would also love to knit a warm pair of socks.  So, I have my fingers crossed for winning the lovely yarn.

Nice warm hats and mittens for my whole family!

It seems to me these fibers are crying out to be next to the skin.  I have a sweater set in my project queue which I believe will be a good match for this yarn fiber selection.  A soft, silky camisole top for warm spring and summer days; topped by a light cardigan for cooler spring and summer nights.  I think the Yak would approve.

What an ingenious pattern and the yarn sounds fabulous.  I favor vests over sweaters and this shawl is really a ---with possibilities.  Would love to make it in this yarn.

I Want!  I Want!  I Want!!!  What gorgeous yarns!  I would definitely make the Summit Cardi Wrap - I love the reversible lace pattern and the versatility of this piece!  I would also have to make a cowl, and some socks, and I'd love to make a 3/4 sleeve cropped, open cardigan, and/or a tank.  So many possibilities with this incredibly beautiful yarn!

What a dream to work with this yarn.  I would make the American Yak Wrap it is gorgeous!

Saw some of the yarn at Stitches West and loved it.  I would knit a wrap or shawl.

I've only been knitting for a little over a year and have not yet tried yak yarn.  I would love to try the wrap pattern, too!

Wow, what lovely yarns! I would love a chance to knit with them. I could see a shawl and hand accessories in my future......

Wow,  love your emails that link to such interesting information!  If I won your Bijou Basin Ranch's lovely supply of yarn I would knit a sweater.   My knitting of hats, scarves, and lace shawls have given me plenty of pratice.  But I would love to knit a sweater and right now I just can afford all that yarn.  This yarn looks so lovely, it would be a dream come true to try it.  

I would love to make the yak wrap. The arm holes in it make it so wearable. Thanks for the chance to win such beautiful yarn!

It's hard to decide, but a scarf, hat, and gloves might be nice.

What scrumptious sounding yarns!! I'd make the featured wrap to snuggle up in, and maybe a few other cozy things like some fingerless mitts or scarves. :)

I'd be very excited to knit socks or make a sweater for snuggling. Either way just to feel this yarn next to the skin would take away crisp days and chilly nights.

Thanks for the video demonstrating how to join the pieces for the shawl.  What a lovely, lacy beauty it is.  I was born and raised in Lima, Peru with alpaca and wool and started knitting when I was a teenager.  A shawl would be what I would make... oh yes and try out that great way to join the pieces... can't wait!!

I want to try the reversible lace, but not sure I would knit the cardi wrap.  I might knit something in fair isle, or humm, just not sure yet., but the yarn sounds wonderful and I am sure I will find something to make.

I'd make hats, scarves and fingerless mittens for the holidays for next year.  If I had any yarn leftover, I'd make a vest from a pattern that I've been eyeing!  I'd love to have this yarn!

Oh, I would have to knit a luxurious scarf, wrap or shawl to surround myself with that softness!

I'd knit a hoodie with fair isle color work and pockets for my grandson.

I can't wait to get my hands on Kristin's new book! Practically every pattern cries out "knit me now!!" I would LOVE to win the beautiful Bijou Basin Ranch fiber, too :-)

If I were to win I'd be in "Stash -Heaven"!  Imagine all the lovely things these yarns will become: mittens, scarves, yah, even a Canadian "tuque" (winterhat).

Aaaah...

This yarn looks like it will be a perfect defense against cold VT winters. I'd make socks, a hat, and mittens.

That is some gorgeous yarn.  I would love to make a shawl and some fingerless mitts with it.

I would definitely knit the wrap, both the yarn and the wrap look gorgeous

I would make some three color earflap hats and a pair of socks just to revel in the yak feel. The socks would be for me, he he and the hats for family gifts

I'd love to try a lace wrap.  What lovely yarn!

The yarn looks beautiful, and I love the wrap!

With Bijou Basin Ranch yarns, I would love to try the Summit American Yak Wrap pattern. I would like to be the winner of the supply of yarn to accomplish this. I have downloaded the pattern and am ready to go.

This is an awesome chance to win some spectacular yarn!  Be still my heart !!!!!

Oh if I ever won this wonderful looking yarn I would definitely be putting everything on hold and start working on making Summit Cardi wrap.

I would love to try your yarns. My mom's birthday is coming up and I have been wondering what to make her. I have been considering a versatile wrap as she gets cold easily even in warm weather. This yarn sounds so lofty and wonderful I think mom would love it!

Shoots I would love just knitting it as I am totally addicted to natural fibers. :)

Have never knitted with Yak yarn............looks yummy...Yummy Yak

Would love to try on the beautiful shawl pictured.  lauraj16@mchsi.com

I think this yarn is telling me to make a beautiful, grown-up item.

My brother is getting married at age 50 to a lovely woman. It's the second time around for both of them and I have been struggling to think of the perfect gift.

So , I would tackle a cuddly throw for their bedroom.

Just visited your site! Every year I knit something for my staff! This wool would make 12 fabulous cowls !

I would love to knit a shawl with this yarn. I love the colors.

Choices! Choices! Being a very tactile person I think I would have to make a wrap probably Kristin's without the arm slits just to be able to sheath myself in this gorgeous yarn from Bijou Basin!

I would love to win this package of Bijou Basin yarns!!  I would need to have yarn in hand to figure out what I would make with each one but my guess is a shawl, mittens, hat, and a cowl.

I'd love to try this yarn, but it's something that I haven't been able to afford.  It sounds wonderful!!  I'm also a big fan of Kristin's, and there are so many things of hers that are on my list of things I want to make!!  I love her Diamond Lace Scarf, Hypnotize Shawl, Maya Shawl, and the sweater on the cover on her Crochet so Fine book, for starters.  She is truly a genius!!  What an opportunity!  

Wow! lovely.  I'd love to knit up a wrap like that, but perhaps with half length sleeves.

I would love to knit the Summit American Yak Wrap!

Mittens! Can you imagine how warm they would be! I would also make warm wraps for everyone in my family.

Hmmm wouldn't it be fun to mix the yarns into a cardi or wrap with the Dream as the main color... or a lovely shawl with hand warmers...or....

I would love to try the Bijou Basin Ranch's yak yarn!  I especially liked hearing that the more it is worn, the softer it becomes without pilling!  Also the video gives me the courage as a " veteran crocheter/new knitter" to try the American Yak Wrap.  Her descriptions were spoken in my language!

What an unusual, beautiful wrap.  I've never used this yarn, but would love to.  It continually amazes me the mind that it takes to come up with these gorgeous designs, especially intricate ones like this one.  What a talent!  I would love the opportunity to knit a wonderful garment out of this awesome yarn.

eagleman2@verizon.net

I would make the "i do" scarf and fingerless gloves.

Imagine sipping yak butter tea while crafting a luxurious Summit American Yak  Wrap.  Sounds like heaven to me.  My second choice from Wrapsody will be the Rings of Cables Oval Shrug. I would love to win Yak Yarn!

What lovely and wonderful yarn!  I'm thinking I'd experiment with Kristin's reversible lace with the different weights of yarn to think about scarves and wraps (and maybe even think about what I'd need for a luxurious special throw).

What a cool wrap!  I'd love to try some of the  Bijou yak yarn. I prefer to have my arms covered so I'd probably forgo the armholes and knit the design as a shawl.

I have had dreams of knitting with this type of yarn, however not in the on retirement funds.  But if I could I would knit the cardiwrap.  I'm always cold and this would keep me warm, more ways then one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would love to try the Summit cardi-wrap!

love the summit cardy wrap, and the yarn looks wonderful. I just received my copy of Kristins book, Knitting Wrapsody.  Love it.

The yarm looks beautiful!  I would knit up scarfs, cowls, mittens...anything that I could feel next to my skin so that I could enjoy the softness of the yarn.

I would love to make the Yak wrap or some other shawl in a lacy pattern!

If I were to win Bijou Basin Ranch yarns, (and coming from a colder climate), I would knit a gorgeous cardigan sweater or cowl scarf and mitts for my children.  From what I have observed on the Bijou Basin farm pictures, they look like a very resilient animal, which would transcend into the fiber.  And what beautiful natural colors!  After watching Kristin's video of her gorgeous wrap, what a nice versatile yarn with lots of potential for many knitted/crochet projects.

The Himalayan Trail and Mountain Treks yarns would knit up into warm hats and gloves with the protein fiber combinations. A lap size afghan or throw would be nice items also and warm to curl up with a book or knitting project. I love natural fibers and the feel of them when I am knitting. Protein and cellulose fibers make great washable combinations for projects also. Winning yarn would be wonderfuland add to my yarn stash! Thanks for the opportunity.

What beautiful yarn. I'd love to play with it!

Oohh, what beautiful yarn. I would knit either the Majestic Mountains Stole by Georgina Bow (I make one of these a few years ago but gifted it, next one's for me!) or a simple (knit lengthways) wrap mixing the yarns and colours, letting the beauty of yarn showcase the project.

I have been seeing some patterns for sweaters that mix the heft of the yarns. I think the mix of beautiful textiles being offered in this package would be the perfect time to tackle one of those sweaters. I would love to win!

I would knit a lacy shawl.

I have visited several Himalayan countries in my travels, seen yak in the wild, bought a charming buddha made of yak bone, ate yak stew, but never had the opportunity to buy yak yarn.  Knitting with the Bijou Spun Yak would be like a return trip to these fascinating countries.  Kristen's shawl would be a perfect project for me, and an opportunity to try a new construction technique  along with a new yarn.  Thanks to Bijou Basin Ranch for giving knitters an opportunity ot try their product!

Fabulous yarns!  I would knit a shawl for my mom who is recovering from cancer, something really pretty that would make her feel pretty!!

I've drooled over this yarn for a while and would first make a lace shawl, then a cowl with the heavier yarn, then go on from there!

I would knit some mittens that are lined with this yarn. This yarn looks  very soft.

OOOh lovely yarn and wrap.

I would make either a lacy shawl or maybe socks. If the yarn is as soft and warm as I think it would be the socks would be terrific for cold winters here.

Oooh - the yak yarn is beautiful.  I would make a shawl and a hat.  I would share some with a special friend too.  Keeping my fingers crossed.

I'm pretty new to knitting and love all the yarns. I'm like a kid in a candy store when I shop for prospective, future projects. Although I love all the intricate stitches of needle knitting, I have to admit that the loom knitting seems to be more comfortable. I'm pretty partial to all kinds of scarves and have been trying my hand at these. I'd love to win this collection of yarns to make scarves and feel a different kind of warmth against my skin.

The American Yak Wrap is a fascinating project that I would really enjoy trying. But I also know that since ideas start bouncing around in my head just from looking at yarn photos, I might be tempted to design a shawl instead. There are so many possibilities that would all be beautiful!

I'd make a stole to keep the chill off in my over-air-conditioned office.

Oh MY! What beautiful yarn Bijou has! I think that I would make at least 1 pair of Fair Isle socks if I were to win this. Although, after looking at all of the absolutely stunning colors available, a sweater, Aran jacket, afghan, or a hooded scarf came to mind.

I have been unable to find yarn locally and can't wait to touch it after hearing the description of how soft it is. I'm thinking a lacy sweater that could be worn for special occasions year-round. Thanks for featuring new yarns.

I love all of Kristin's patterns--they are without exception things I would love to knit and wear! This one is lovely and I think I may try the 2 needle bind off with a current project I am about to join--never thought about it in this way.  What would I make with the lovely Bijou Basin yarn? A project I have wanted to make for 5 years--the Cabled Shrug by Shirley Paden in Interweave Knits 2005.  The softness and natural feel of the yak yarn would make up perfectly in this pattern!

Lovely yarns! If I had a chance to use the Tibetan Dream yarn, I'd knit a pair of socks with a lace panel down the front, as the fine yarn would give beautiful definition to the lace stitch. Gorgeous!

I would love to try this wrap, but I also just order Wrapsody, so I might find another great project for this yarn. I travel a lot for my work, and I always take yarn and needles with me for a special project. I also get to find those wonderful little yarn stores wherever I go. It's a great way to see America.

I would knit a light cardigan, so I could wear it nearly all year round in Ireland (where it never "really" gets warm for me) and some nice simple socks for my dancer feet to keep warm and feel some earthy grounding! maybe the sound of the yaks running around would help!

I would make our 3 week old Granddaughter a sweater, cap and as many other things as possible.  

How Fabulous! Up until last year I hadn't knitted since third class(about 9 years old) when as a class we knitted T-shirts for the Etheopian famine babies!! (I think every Irish 9 year old did!) So I have done plenty garments for my baby - now wobbler, but have been looking for an interesting something to do for myself and I love the Yak wrap - considered very exotic wool in this part of the world! Also, crochet has eluded me so far, so to be able to knit this wrap is so ideal for me!! I love the natural colours too. Would be extatic to win this fabulous yarn!!

Mittens, wristlets and a lacy shawl. And I wouldn't leave the house for a week!

I would knit myself a super cozy shawl and some accessories. I'm moving to a colder climate soon, and I think yak items would be awesome for the cold winters in my future!

I would knit a super soft neck gaiter.

Oh my goodness, what a contest!! If I won, I'd be knitting a shawl for sure. And accessories!!

I would like to to try to make the Knit Front Wrap Shrug by Shannon Mullett-Bowlsby. It uses the Bijou Spun Lhasa Wilderness yarn. It looks wonderful!

nysunshine@justbeads.zzn.com

I love the idea of yarn that gets softer with washing and blooms without pills--what a great trait!  I would like to make some very special baby items--blanket, christening gown, booties with all the different weights used appropriate.  I love Kristin's new book, too!  Great job all around.

What wonderful yarn and a fantastic chance to win some of it! I have many patterns on hand to choose from, I think the shrug pattern I have would work up beautifully!

Creative construction! Fiber is heavenly and warm, great for such a project!

Wonderful construction idea! The yarn is heavenly and warm, just the write project for such fiber.

I've been looking for a pattern for a nice , but not too complicated shawl for summer evening wear.  This yarn and the Summit Yak pattern certainly seem to be what I was looking for :)

I've visited Bijou Basin Ranch website, and the yarns are beautiful.  I would love to use it for a jacket for my daughter.  

Yes these yarns look beautiful! I would love to get them on my needles and make the vest I've been thinking about for a year or so!

What beautiful yarn! Living on the northwest redwood coast I would love to try knitting the American Yak Wrap shown here or perhaps a slightly warmer cardigan.

your yarn is gorgeous! I love the wrap as well. I would definitely knit the Yak wrap. I live is a place that is cold at night in the summer and that would be heavenly.

I love this wrap!!  What intrigues me is that it looks crocheted but it's KNITTED!!  I can do both but much prefer the knitted the products.  I live in AZ and have a home in Phoenix where it's hot but also have a home in Northern AZ where the nights are cool.  This wrap would be perfect.  I've never knit with "Yak" before even though I've been a knitter for over 40 years but I'm ready to try this wrap.

Susan

I have been dyyying to try Bijou Basin's yarns! (...unfortunately, my budget has yet to allow it!)  What an AWESOME prize pack!

The wrap design is lovely!  If I won the yarn, I would knit another pair of yak socks from some of it, for sure.  I might knit the wrap - though I don't see the yak/cormo in the list.  

I have used this yarn before and LOVE it.  I would be super thrilled to win some more.

Having just knitted with camel down for the first time, I find I have a magnetic and devastating attraction to fuzzy exotic yarns of all origins. a pretty lace shawl for me..a devastatingly warm and practical cowl for DH, a fabulous pair or two of socks and maybe my first pair of gloves, a vest to keep my dad warm and a lap blanket for my mom. And an exotic but practical hat or three to my favorite charity, just because! (Doing that anyway!)

This giveaway is awesome.  I have so many ideas of things to make.  There would definitely be some socks, mittens, a scarf and hat, and who knows what else.  I would love to win this beautiful yarn!

I've felt yak yarn and I'd love to make anything yak!

I would love to crochet or knit a gorgeous lace shawl!

Oh, my!  I've heard these yarns are super soft, so I'm thinking maybe a nice lacy cowl or wimple.  That's if I can get it away from my daughter long enough to knit it!

I have coveted these yarns ever since I first saw them.  If I had enough - I think I would make Jared Flood's Tweed Baby Blanket - only as an adult-sized shawl.   I think they would be a perfect combination!

I'd love to make the Spec-YAK-ular Socks with the Tibetian Dream.

The " Summit American Yak Wrap" is screaming for me to knit it!

I am always drawn to cleaver techniques like a magnet...I'm so excited about this wrap that I am going to run as fast as I can to the store today to get Kristin's book,

"A knitting Wrapsody"

Thank-you so much to everyone who has made this "wrap" possible!

Gorgeous yarns, would make a wrap for me :)

I think I would need to make a sweater out of this yarn.  Something lacy and light for spring/fall wear.  Definitely something with a pattern to showcase the yarn.  Hmm, now you've got me thinking...

this yarn is wonderful and I have already knit a few items with it, but I do have a couple of hats waiting to be made and this just be the answer to what yarn to use.

Undergrowth or End of May

Would love to make the Cardi Wrap for my daughter as well as to have the chance to knit with Bijou Basin yarn.  

thehatlady

I would definitely knit the Summit wrap!  Then I REALLY REALLY want to knit some socks using the 100% yak down in the fingering weight!!  I can't even imagine how cozy those would be...:)

I think I'd work up a scarf with a pocket style hat.  They're so elegant, just like the yarns!

Kristin Omdahl's book is wonderful, and I'm dying to knit the Summit Wrap with this beautiful yarn!  After that, probably wrist warmers.  Thanks!

I think I would love a fair isle hat, mitten, and scarf set, ths would look wonderful with the natural colors!

I prefer to crochet, but I love fine luxury yarns as much as any knitter.   I especially enjoy making wraps, scarves, and hats, for gifts or for myself.  I find Robyn Chacula's Surrey vest made with Bijou Spun's Tibetan Dream Yarn so very attractive.

Tibetan Dream will definitely be a shawl-I am 2000 miles from my patterns so don't know exactly which one!  On the west coast of Canada on the east coast of Vancouver Island some lovely soft cowls would be great for my three  granddaughters, three daughters in law and myself for our cool fall and cold winters. I have been watching for yak and the quivit sp? yarn on my travels but to no avail.  

I would so love to try these yarns!!! I would design a cowl or gauntlets, I think. Unless I got the yarn and it told me that it needed to be something else. Sometimes the yarn has definite ideas about what it wants to be.

I would knit my way thru Kristen's book with this lovely yarn.

I've knitted Bijou Basin's Wrap Front Shrug and loved the yak/soy combo in Lhasa Wilderness. I'd love to try their other blends and make myself a hat and mittens and perhaps an incredibly luxurious pair of socks!

I would definitely knit a shawl!  Great yarn.

With all that yarn, I'd be knitting more than one pattern!  I'd love to start one of Brooklyn Tweed's cowls first.

The possibilities are endless but on the top of my list is a belted, cabled cardigan. Something that will work in every season, from a cool summer night to a mid-January spot in front of the fireplace.

I don't needle knit, so I do not yet know how well these patterns would convert to the loom, but I'd certainly *try* to needle knit if it would score me some Bijou Basin Ranch! :)

(Don't forget us crocheters ;) )

I would love to do a Sugar Bear Cocoon by Kate Oates aka Tot Toppers!

Never had the pleasure of knitting with this luscious yarn.  I would make the wrap!  Hope I win!  KathyR

I love the Hampton Cardigan in the New England Knits book and it was made in the Bijou Basin Ranch heathered gray brown.  I would love to win the yarn to make this cardigan.  The design is wonderful and the yarn is to die for.  Please pick me!

What an amazing giveaway! I've not been able to work with anything from Bijou Basin yet, but would love to design with their yarns! Kristin's Summit American Yak Wrap is also gorgeous - that's definitely going in my queue!

I would make fantastic lace stoles, cozy socks, luscious  fingerless gloves and yummy sweaters. Please, please choose me!!  I would LOVE to have these yarns in my stash!!!

I would just love to make a Spring/Fall seater coat for those chilly days we can get in the Midwest

These look like wonderful yarns!  I love the natural colors...and jewel tones are irrestible.  I'd love to try my hand at knitting th ewrap for my daughter.

Great wrap!  I can see my daughter wearing it.  I'd love to try my hand at knitting it if I won!  

i think it would be fun to use the yarns and create a sweater with multiple lines, textures and colors using the different yarns to play it up.  What a unique chance to give creativity full rein.

I can already picture the beautiful wrap I would make with the yarn. I have been covering some of the yarn that my friend was using to make a wrap for herself. Oh my I would love winning that yarn!

I would LOVE to win these yarns!  I think it would be fun to make this beautiful lace reversible cardigan.  I find lace challenging and have made several pieces when I was stressed out since it gave me something else to concentrate on!

I Think I would First just sit and "FEEL"  the yarn, but I Could See  warm winter socks or mittens or the start of something bigger like a wonderful woollen sweater!

I have never touched Yak yarn, so I completely admit that my pattern choice might change if I should happen to win.  That said  I think the Lhasa would make a beautiful shawl, and I've been planning on making a Shaelyn shawl for a while and just haven't been able to find the right yarn.  I'm also on a sock kick, and so the Tibetan Dream yarn would definitely end up on my feet.

I would make Traveling Woman Shawl, which I found on Ravelry. It would be gorgeous with this beautiful yarn.

I'm thinking fingerless mitts, leg warmers, and a cowl. Love that yarn!

So many possibilities....a wrap, cowl and mittens, a lovely lace shawl - all decadently soft and warm.  Thank you so much for the opportunity.

Just found this via Twitter. Very nice! Thank you.

drool. I've been planning on buying the Knitting Wrapsody book but now I have to own it. Been working up the courage to start doing lace work and this seems like a lovely yarn to start learning on. Yum Yum!

I would love to knit the the Traveling Woman shawl, which I found on Ravelry, with this gorgeous yarn. it would be beautiful

I commented earlier, but I don't see my comment, so I'm going to repost, if it shows twice, this can be deleted. From the yarns, I'd knit socks, a shawl, hat, mittens, stuff that would use the yak's warmth well against outdoor elements=)

Lemme think, from that yarn.. I could see myself knitting a hat, socks, shawl, gloves/mittens. Anything that I could the warmth of the yak to keep me extra warm in the Winter=)

Pretty Thing Cowl is very high on the list of things to make if am lucky enough to win this yarn. Also high on the list would be a hat and a shawl.

There is definitely a lot of yarn there.  I have been wanting to try their yarn for a while now.  

I would use some to test out the vest pattern I am writing.  Fingering weight would be some socks.  I am sure there is some in there for a nice lacey hat.  

What a treat!  And SO generous!

I really like the looks of this. And love the yarn!

Oh, lovely yarn! I would make lots of things that would be worn close to the skin so the softness and warmth could really be appreciated. Hats, mitten, scarves, ect.

I would love to make this wrap - I can think of more than one person who wouldn't mind me making it for them... my daughter, mother-in-law, niece (more than 1 of them actually!), sister-in-law, aunt.....  The list is endless!!!

I would love to win and would do a hat, mittens, scarf and socks.  Or maybe a beautiful sweater.

The Summit American Yak Wrap is positively GORGEOUS. I have had the pleasure of trying Bijou Basin and the yarn is positively amazing - softer than cashmere, stays cool as silk and warm as wool. Would LOVE to win this!!

I think I might make the wrap if I won. Socks and mittens are other possibilities.

The American Yak Wrap is a brilliant bit of construction, and I'm aching to try it out. What could be better than doing it in a Bijou Bliss yarn ?!

I've been meaning to make the Sherman Street Hat by Cecily MacDonald. Have the pattern, must need some yarn! I also quite like the Dual Cable Fingerless Gloves by Marly Bird.

What a beautiful wrap.  I'd love to make it with Bijou Basin yarn!!

OMG..what delicious yarn.  I would knit a cami and a scarf and whatever else I could think of to wrap around my neck, face, body.  I could knit jammies, or maybe a pillow case so I could sleep with my face on it.  The possibilities are endless.  I can only imagine how that yarn would feel against my skin.  Sigh... mountaingoddess

The first things that I thought of would have to be woolly mittens and felted clogs. I hate cold fingers and toes.

Oh, geez.  Decisions, decisions.  Kristin's work is so beautiful, but I love some of Anne KuoLukito's designs for Bijou too.  I guess if I win, I can decide then!

Wow - what a great giveaway!  I've been itching to get my hands on some of this yarn.  I have no idea what I would make - I'd probably just spend my time petting it.

I'm really liking the Tide Pool Spiral Lace Shawl from A Knitting Wrapsody.  How awesome would that feel in Bijou Basin?!  I hope I win!

Have just joined your website and would LOVE to win the wool!

If I were lucky enough to win, the items I would make would be the cardi-wrap, a knee length skirt , a warm hat and matching fingerless mitts.

Due to medication I have very thin blood and these items would ensure I stay lovely and warm!

Good Luck to all who enter!

Great Giveaway!  I would most definitely eek out at least one, if not two shawls, a pair of mittens and stash the rest for frequent petting ;-)

This yarn is beautiful. I'd love to make a wrap out of it!

Love their yarns.  I would knit  socks and hand warmers.

Oooh. I would knit the Icelandic shawl. The yarn looks wonderful. I love the natural colors.

I have been longing to try the bijou Basin! And there are so many fabulous patterns in A knitting wrapsody it would be hard to choose. I think my favorite is the Echo Reversible Drop-Stitch Mobius.

I would knit alot of stuff..A hat, mitts, mittens, a nice scarf and the maybe some socks and Kristens wrap for me..I love yak yarn.

Oooh, lovely yarns.  Yaks are fascinating to see with their long haired coats.  I have seen them in the wild in Outer Mongolia on a trip I took there a few years ago.  It would be wonderful to try this yarn.  I believe I would make a lovely warm tam hat.  I love to design so this would be a wonderful experience to try a new fiber.  Thanks.

Oh I would probably make a shawl or scarf.  Something that I could definately wear close to my skin.  I have not tried their yarns, but I would LOVE to.

The yarn looks scrumptious.  I would knit some sort of cozy wrap with it.  

Definitely would make the Summit Wrap if I won (and probably will even if I don't!), and maybe also whip something up from Crochet So Fine. Gorgeous patterns + gorgeous yarn = so much WIN!

Hmm, I think that yarn is begging me to be turned into an infinity scarf or oversized cowl; that's what I'd make if I won. Yum!

I am really excited about this giveway! Kristin Omdahl rocks!

The perfect recipe for the perfect wrap!  Kristin + Bijou Basin = AWESOME!

Have not knit with yak yarns and would love the opportunity to knit with Bijou Basin Ranch yarns.  Think I would start by making a wrap/shawl that could be worn and enjoyed in more seasons in my Southern state.

I have one of their patterns (the Wrap Front Shrug), but I haven't gotten the yarn for it yet... so this would be perfect!

I'd love to knit a shawl for me and good socks for my husband!

I love this wrap. Kristin's book is also on my wishlist! Yak is something that I have yet to work with, but from the details in the video, it's something that is on my list to now try!

I have loved this yarn from afar for a long time.  I would be willing to learn how to make cables with this yarn.  :-)  Scarf, hat and mittens would be perfect.  A set for me and one for my daughter in college at UMass.

I've seen your yarns in person several times and covet them dearly; thanks for sharing such an interesting pattern! I love that it has holes for your arms. I tend to stay away from wraps because they're always falling off while I'm bustling about.

I would probably make a wrap with it. Looks like wonderful yarn.

gorgeous yarns....I'd do a cami with the tibetan dream then some single or double skein projects/mitts/hats etc with the rest.

I'd work up a fair  isle sweater, and a scarf/hat/mitts set. Those colors are wonderful, and the yarn ssounds super-luxurious.

Just visited your website via Ravelry.  What aweoms yarns and patterns!  Would love a chance to win.
