Lola Halloween Contest Winners

October 30th, 2008

Almost 3,000 of you submitted funny, quirky, and clever captions for our Lola Halloween Contest. We enjoyed reading them so much that we couldn’t pick just one first place winner, so we are happy to announce TWO winners!

FIRST PLACE WINNERS:

Cindy of Ocala, FL:

Suzanne of Parrish, FL:

Both ladies will each get a $100 gift certificate for use on the Lion Design catalog and LionBrand.com!

HONORABLE MENTIONS:

I know I may not look at it, but I am definitely “sport-weight,” so no snide comments!
- Debora of Eatontown, NJ

Gimme that candy! I’ve got a concealed knitting needle and I ain’t afraid to use it!
- Irma of Cypress, TX

It’s as close to looking like Vanna as I’m going to get!
- Jessica of Cincinnati, OH

I’m just not thin enough to dress as a knitting needle.
- Debra of Middletown, RI

I promised the neighborhood I wouldn’t knit my costume this year…
- Lyz of Marshall, MN

All the honorable mentions will receive a copy of Lion Brand Vintage Styles for Today!

Congratulations to all of the winners, and thank you to everyone who participated! Just a reminder that in the case of duplicate submissions, only the first person to submit the caption was eligible to win.

    All the strips are great. My faviote is the Not fat but Chunky. It is about the way that I feel most days about my weight loss progress.

  5. Patti Says:

    I enjoyed them all and they brought a grin. That’s what it’s all about … except of course the yarn!
    Thank you!

    My brother said that he would have said, “Next year I’m going as an afghan” but I didn’t see the contest in time…
