Winners!

Winners of the Halloween contest were chosen by a special group of judges. This time I chose a group of people very familiar with my patterns and who also enjoy Halloween. Our panel have all worn hats made from my patterns and may be familiar to some of you. All of their answers were great!

After putting all of the votes together, the entries with the most votes were chosen to each win three patterns of their choice (listed below in no particular order). Some of the judges' comments have been included for everyone to enjoy.

Second place (2 patterns of choice): Furbies for EVERYONE!!
Third place (1 pattern of choice): Bright light, bright light...
