Congratulations! Please contact me at yarnonthehouse@gmail.com to collect your prize.
We have a very talented and fun knit hat designer as our guest this week. It's one of my favorite designers: Woolly Wormhead.
Woolly was nice enough to meet up on Skype and do an interview for us; unfortunately, our connection was not quite good enough for a video, but I did get a voice recording. Hope you enjoy the interview!
If you cannot see the player click here.
Thank you so much for visiting us, Woolly! Come back and visit anytime! Woolly has been nice enough to offer the chance for TWO followers to win a PDF copy of her latest e-book, Twisted Woolly Toppers
This book includes 10 hat designs that feature unique techniques and offer lots of unisex patterns, which I appreciate. I'm always searching for good looking "manly" hats. I bet hubby would love a Chevron beanie.
Also, TWO followers have the chance to win a PDF copy of one of the following lovely new Woolly patterns:
...or, Limpetiole
...or, Anca's Beret
I would like you to do the following if you would like to be entered into this week's giveaway:
1. Read over the rules if you have not done so already.
2. Leave a comment on this blog post by the end of Sunday, 1/2/11. We're switching things up a bit and there's a quiz question this week: Woolly Wormhead only models one of her patterns - which one is it? Don't worry if you don't know the answer! Just leave a comment saying "Hi" to Woolly instead. Have fun!
I'll randomly pick the winners on Sunday and post the results on Monday along with the new giveaway, so be sure to check back. Good luck everyone.
Sincerely,
Ve

Oh - the dread hat?
I've admired Wooly's work forever; but I've not a clue which hat she's modeling! Happy New Year, Wooly! As always, the most generous folk are right here.
No idea, cute patterns though!
I just recently bought her e-book and love every hat in it, especially the baby hats. She is a very talented designer. I would love to make myself the Castiel hat too.
hi!!
BEAUTIFUL patterns!!!
I LOVE Woolly's new hats!! Is she modeling Igloo?? Thanks for all your fantastic designs!
Love the hats!!
Hi Wooly! I've admired these hats for a while now. Each so unique. I love knitting hats.
Hi Wooly! I have no idea which one she modeled but I LOVE her patterns...I've made 3 merets so far!
Not sure which one Wolly models, but the hats are LOVELY! Thanks for contributing your designs to this giveaway!
Another nice giveaway! Hooray!
(Whoops. And I don't know the answer. Hi, Wooly!)
Trekking maybe?? I looked through them all and couldn't figure it out. Maybe because it is too early in the morning to think... Beautiful hats though :D
It's Igloo!!
I really like Limpetiole. I definitely need to add it to my queue!
Igloo ~ with her hair poking out the hole!
Maybe she is the one in the Castiel photo. Cutest hats I've ever seen!
i have no idea which one it is, but i absolutely love her designs!
I think she is modeling Igloo. Beautiful hat patterns.
From the pics on her Web site it looks like she is modeling the pattern Igloo. Thanks for hosting the giveaway!
I don't know the answer. Really enjoyed the interview. Also signed up for the Wooly newsletter. Thanks for the contest opportunity ;o)
Hi woolly - IGLOO!
Based on what everyone says I"m going to guess Igloo. What a fantastic giveaway!
Hi Woolly! I'm getting ready to knit one of your hats for my mom pretty soon and I've already made one of your other hats for my brother-in-law :)
Wow those hat patterns are awesome! Hi Wooly!
Hi wooly, I couldn't figure out which hat YOU are modelling, but they are all great!
I have no idea but her patterns are beautiful!
Is it propello?
love her hats and the cool sideways knits especially.
I don't know which hat she models but I really love them all!
Thanks Wooly, for your generosity - hadn;t come across your designs before so am glad to find you :) Couldn;t tell which you modelled - (looked thru' lots but not all patterns) but oh, well.....
Beautiful patterns! What a lovely giveaway too. Happy holidays!
Hi,
I couldn't recognize WW in the photos, but then, some of them are from the back!
I love her designs, she has has endless creativity!
By the way my surname is the name of one her patterns posted on the blog - how cool is that.
p.s. my Rav name is goodstuff - you can track me down there :-)
I love the Castiel hat pattern! And tons of Wooly's other patterns, too, although I looked through every one and can't figure out which one she's modeling! Thanks for the chance to win.
Igloo? He patterns are the best! Love the Anca's beret!!!
Thanks to Woolly for her generous giveaway!
Hmmmm...not sure, Igloo maybe? Hi Wooly wormhead! A lot of your photos are of the back of the hat so very difficult to tell. They are all very funky though!
Hi Woolly Wormhead! I love your patterns. Thanks for the giveaway.

Looks like it might be Igloo?
Great designs in any case! I really love Anka's beret.
Hi wooly wormhead. I love your patterns and have knitted some of them. Good luck on your new book.
I couldn't tell which she was modelling but I enjoyed listening to her talk about her design inspiration. Thanks for the interview!
Hi Wooly! I just signed up for your newsletter so maybe I'll soon find out which hat you model!
Ummm I don't know. Hi Wolly. Love your hats
I think this is very fun! Good time of year for a hat to knit!
Love the toppers. Her patterns are on my list of future purchases!
Oooh...no idea on which pattern she models, but I just ran across Castiel on Ravelry this week and I think it's awesome! Great Job Woolly!
Hi wooly! i don't know which hat it is, but i love them all!
I'm not sure which one Wooly models, but I love Brownie & I'll have to make it at some point!
I already have Woolly Wormhead's Twisted Wooly Toppers, but do not recall her modelling any of the hats in that book. I just love her and her designs. Thanks for this give-away.
Hi Wooly! :)
What cute hats. thanks for the giveaway.
I believe that Woolly models Igloo!!
All the hat patterns are great, though! Thanks for a great giveaway!!
Hmmm.. Igloo? I love all the hats, so fun
I don't know the answer--but those are great hat patterns, especially Castiel.
Woolly is wearing Igloo, with her dreads peeking out the back. :) I have knit Ziggy, Bobba and Rainbow Warrior,and all patterns are well written and very interesting to knit. I love Woolly Wormhead's patterns! samm
Hi Woolly!
I believe it is Igloo
The only one that looks like it might be Woolly is Igloo
It's Igloo! Such fun hats.
Hello Woolly from New Zealand!! I love your designs ... thanks for your generosity in donating this prize.
I'm pretty sure that it is Igloo as well.

OOooo Woollys designs are rapidly converting me into a hat person. Have only made Weekenders so far but I've got more waiting for time on the needles :-)
I love hats, especially Woolly's!
barblt99@yahoo.com
I don't know which she models but I do love many of her patterns!
I think she's modeling "Propello"
Love these patterns! I would have a hard time deciding which one to knit first!!
jepkey on Ravelry
I think it's Igloo - fantastic designs!!!!
Well I'll follow along with the crowd and guess Igloo. Love Wooly's patterns!!
jendada on ravelry
Sorry, I don't know--but hi Wooly!
Hi Woolly! I LOVE your patterns!
I have absolutely no idea but the patterns look so beautiful I would think she would be proud to model any of them. Hello Woolly! I really love Castiel.
I love her hats! They're all so creative.
Hi woolly! I love them all, but have no clue which one she's modeling lol
Hi Woolly Wormhead. I'm not sure which one is you, but they're all beautiful hats!
Don't know for sure, but I'll guess it's Marina. Thanks for another great contest!
Woolly Wormhead modeled Stripey Beanie, way back in August! On one section of her dreads! Cute!
This is a lovely giveaway.
Thanks!

Oh, I am so thrilled to be your winner! I just came home after being snowed in up in Northern New Hampshire - where I spent Christmas with friends...
Just e-mailed you...
Oh, I would love a copy of Limpetiole! How gorgeous!
Of course, owning the entire book would be even better!
She models Igloo! Love her patterns!
I bet it's Igloo... the hair is kind of a give away. :D I am amazed that anybody could make, much less design, that many hats!
Is it Igloo? I have to admit, it was fun to look at all of her patterns to try to figure it out. Plus, I added a few more to my queue!
Love Woolly's patterns!!
Is she the cover model of the pattern book? Love her designs. What talent!!!
I've been searching to try to figure out which design Woolly models. I can't quite tell from the one or two pictures of her in a hat that I've found. I'm guessing Tea Cosy, but really don't know. I am amazed by her productivity and creativity.
Fantastic patterns! :) And what a great giveaway! :)

Great designs!
Definately the Igloo, can't miss those dreads. I will be making the Meret soon. I love her hats-they are very origianl.
I think it's Igloo. Thanks for turning me on to Woolly - I subscribed to her newsletter and blog. I would love to win! Debbie in Alaska
Looks like a great book. I cheated and looked at other answers for which one Wooly Wormhead wears!
I love Limpetiole!
I love Woolly's designs, and am a follower of her blog. Her blog (especially the bits about her new home and the kitties she helps), her knitting, her designs (and the inspiration for her designs) and her photography are always a source of inspiration to me. However I'm unsure as to which designs she herself models.
Anyway, happy new year woolly and Veronika!! Thanks for the great giveaway!
Hello Wooly, I don't know your work yet, but may be my luck is coming my way and i'll win one of your e-books :) Thank you for the opportunity and a Happy New Year to you!
I can't believe she learned to knit at 3. I liked meeting Woolly through your interview.
IGLOO!!! Hi Woolly! Love ALL your patterns! You're a true artistic designer!! Keep up the amazing work!

Would love to win something...and these hats rock! no idea what she models, but it must be tres cool! Bets wishes for the new year everyone! cheers, rebecca
Hi Wooly! Love the hats- how gorgeous!
I absolutely adore Woolly's hat designs. I think I'm going to eventually end up with a drawer full of Woolly designed hats!
(Woolly models Igloo, by the way!)
I just finished my first Woolly Wormhead hat pattern. It came out amazing! A very well-written pattern is always a pleasure!
Hi, love the limpetiole.
asteride at gmail.com
I am guessing Igloo- she has great designs!
Hey guys, what fantastic compliments, thank you!
Am loving reading all the comments - keep 'em coming ;)
And Happy New Year to everyone!
I'm going to say "igloo." Love your hats Woolly!
igloo? either way, "HI, wooly! beautiful patterns!" thanks for the chance to win the book.
Hi Woolly! I looked through a few of the patterns and could not find the one you (she) models, but I have been an admirer of your(her) patterns for quite a while! In fact I am about to cast on for a rollin' beret! Have been jonesing for a beret for a couple of years and now seems like a good time! But maybe I should hold off in case I win one of the patterns!
Debbie
I don't know which hat Woolly models, but I love the pics of her new double decker bus she's been posting about on her blog. So hi!
I am a HUGE fan of her patterns! I think that she models the loopy bonnet, but I'm not sure.
Just listened to the interview with Melissa. This is a great WS. I would love to win the contest, but alas i never do... win things i mean. I knit ever moment i can and my poor hands and wrist..HURT. Never stops me though. not sure how to put a pic on this profile.. can anybody help? thank you yarn on the house. :-)
Hi Wooly!!

Hello Wooly Wormhead. I LOVE your patterns, though I am not sure which one you model.
Wow, Ve, she has some of the cutest and most creative hats! I'd love to make one. As to which one she's modeling? I couldn't figure it out. But I'm thrilled to be entered in the giveaway!!

My guess is Igloo. Beautiful hats! Thanks for the giveaway.
Love hats..my niece wears alot of them after her brain surgery sparking my new love for hats. Her designs are amazing.
I don't know which pattern she models, but they are all so beautiful! Great designs!!
nice hats - love them especially the igloo that I believe she is modeling?
I love your hat patterns, but have yet to knit one.
I love Woolly!! Thanks for another great giveaway!
Woolly modeled the Igloo so her 'worms' could hang out! What a lot of fabulous hats.
Hi Woolie! I love your hats!! Thanks so much for your offer.

Wonderful hats. Hi to you and Woolley. Per one of your tweets about the wrap. Rather than break up a friendship, I'm sure someone would love to take that beautiful piece off your hands. Just sayin'. :)
I don't know which hat she models, but thanks for the giveaway and Hi Wooly!
I'm going to have to go with Igloo. Love your hats Woolly!!
Igloo! Great patterns!
Well, I searched all over Ravelry, and while it doesn't show her face, I think Igloo has her hair!
I didn't realize how many hat designs she has and how many of them are ones in my favorite's list.
POSTING FOR THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. Thank you everyone for posting! -Ve
