When Classic Mully does something, she goes all out! Classic is the wonder woman behind Calizona Designs, a shop chock full of sparkly things so if you are easily distracted- finish reading this before you visit there.
When I received the beautiful packets Classic put together for March, I felt like a Hollywood VIP! She was so sweet to set aside one just for me, and inside was a hand painted yarn sampling, a pattern for springtime headband, a set of beaded earrings, a lotus flower hand made pendant and a set of chocolate pearl beaded stitch markers! The cherry on top of it all, was a $10 gift certificate I just used. I bought yarn (I've got it on the brain all the time) but now after looking at some of her jewelry pieces, I regret I didn't get one of those. Jewelry, like sock yarn, doesn't count, in fact if you're like me, it is a mandatory expense just like buying underwear - so feel free to splurge a little ( I know I will be!).
If you've got that packet from Classic in your March box, remember the coupon expires so be sure and redeem it! Let us know what you got too- nothing in her shop is the same and we like to look at the pretties!
For April, Classic sent in hand made and hand painted bamboo knitting needles! Again, she gave me the glam treatment and allotted a gorgeous Hawaiian sunset pair for me. As part of the giveaway, the winner will be able to pick out their own pair from the ones she sent in. She really does it all, everything from cherries to strawberries to ladybugs to pink cheetah print! If you have an idea for some painted needles, Classic is your go-to gal. The lucky commenter winner will also receive a special March packet I have reserved for this giveaway. Inside is a beautiful pearl and crystal jade colored bracelet, a yarn sampling, the coupon, and jade colored glass stitch markers! The value of this giveaway is worth $70-$90! All you have to do, is visit Calizona Designs and post about something you like here on the blog. I will count your twittering, facebook posts, ravelry posts or blogposts as extra entires- just let me know that is what you did! Help us get the word out about this amazing shop! I will be drawing on Tuesday, so hurry hurry!
Thank you, Classic for going the extra mile in everything you do! We look forward to more sampling of your special work in coming boxes!

THERE ARE PIRATE KNITTING NEEDLES!!! I need more needles anyway, since I have all of three pairs....
~Coleva on Rav
My first choice was the Magenta and Black yarn. The colors are so vibrant. Then i say those needles. I loved the Breast Cancer ones as well as the sunset ones. Off to tweet about this. Amazing stuff!!!!
I may have to get the needles anyway - my motto - so much yarn not enough needles.
Another pair or 2 can never hurt.
My fave on this fun site is the pink and black yarn. I love hot pink and black, and would luv to see how it'd knit up!!
Me-Ni on Ravelry
Gosh, lots of goodies to choose from! I think my favorite thing is the pair of Breast Cancer Awareness needles.
Best of luck with your shop!
Wow. The needles are awesome. I love the red flame ones. But the Amethyst Sock Yarn wins. Fabulous. I think I need it.
bloglessinnj on gmail
gorgeous needles but I also love the goodnight jewelry collection and the red gatsby collection. my youngest daughter would love the star bling set.
The Hawaiian sunset needles are cute, as are the pirate ones!
Jen
My mom is a breast cancer survivor so my first thought was the needles, but on thinking about it, she really doesn't need reminders so I'd go with the Hawaiian sunset ones - she'd really like them.
I'm dadofra AT hotmail in case I win.
OMG Im in LOVE... All of it. There goes any extra money I had. The Pirate Needles, le sigh. with the Black and Pink yarn. Oh yeah Im so there. Hmmmm now to get my skills up there to be worth of such equipment.

The Pirate Knitting Needles are completely necessary to go with my pirate themed knitting shirt.

The black and pink sock yarn jumped out at me when I opened the page, and I'm not normally a fan of pink. I also really like the hair feather as well, even though it's also pink.

We have a thing for pirate's around here. And knitting. We need those pirate knitting needles. Arghhh!
I love the needles with painted flowers, the tom-tom drums, zebra stripes. The Spring roving has my name all over it! Yum-Yum!
What an amazing give-away! The shop is great with so many great items. The Pink Watch really grabbed my attention. It's gorgeous!
These colors are great:
Spring Roving
They would brighten up this very gloomy day.

Oh what's not to like. I love the argyle knitting needles. I love the Red Gatsby collection and I also love the collection of yarn pictured.

I love you guys so much! Thank you for all your compliments! I will admit, the pirate needles are my favorite! (What? I'm a Raider fan- please don't judge me!) With that said, check out the shop often cuz this weekend is roving, etc. this week I'm putting up more yarn. (Gotta take da photos!).
Also, thanks for the love on the jewelry and horse tack. I love making horse tack! I have bery spoiled horses!
(Other special things will be hitting the store soon too, I won't tell but I'm sure if you check out the announcements you can get a hint!)
:)
This was an easy one for me, I've been in love with that pink watch since she put it in the store! Although everything in the store is welcome to come live at my house! LOL

I love Bobby's Eyes, although the needles are wonderful, especially the Hawaiian Sunsets.
Gmail: tomknit
Thank you so much for sharing this one... I think I may go broke shopping for yarn alone!... but what I am really in love with is the jewelry, especially the Pink Watch. Must go tweet about this store now...
I have three friends that have survived breast cancer, all of them before the age of 45. So for me the breast cancer awareness needles are particularly special. Thanks for making such a beautiful pair.
All I can say is I am salivating over EVERYHING!!

Gorgeous, gorgeous stuff!
I love the floral leather belt and the checkbook cover. I know my daughter would love the pirate knitting needles....
Oh, so hard to decide!
Oh definitely the pink and black camo needles with the pink and black sock yarn. Lovely.

PIRATE knitting needles?! I may have to start using straights again....
Though it seems slightly prejudiced against us ninja knitters. Where are the ninja needles? Why doesn't anybody notice the ninjas?
.... Oh, yeah.

I love the Blue and Silver Ocean Necklace. I've posted to my blog.
I really like the robin's egg blue roving and the black and pink yarn. The colors are so vivid!
I'm loving the pink and black sock yarn - socks with those would be like a hug from the 80s!
(dragoness on Ravelry)
I am a fan of the argyle knitting needles; imagine knitting an argyle sweater with these! How sophisticated!
-MissMoosey on Ravelry
I went to look at the needles and yarn and love the pink check book cover - too cute!
yarn wise, the amethys colorway and the diamonds and guns (great name!) were beautiful too.
Argyle Knitting Needles
OMG, I love, love, LOVE them!!!
Ksidwell on Ravelry
I love the purple sock yarn. Really beautiful. Also the blue sock yarn. Yummy.
jerseyjessie on gmail
I really like Bodie's Necklace. Obviously talent and good taste run in the family.
The Diamonds and Guns Yarn was added after I left my first comment, but it's so in line with some pics I posted last week about possible gun themed yarn colorways that it cracks me up. http://kitten-with-a-whiplash.blogspot.com/2009/03/therapy.html
I mean, who doesn't love pirates!! The pirate knitting needles are just super cute!
Lizbert on Ravelry
I like the pirate knitting needles, the black and pink yarn, and the robins egg roving. So much great stuff in her shop! I didn't get one of her samples but they looked so cool, maybe I can get one this way!
Definitely the amethyst sock yarn! Wow!
I love the Diamonds and Guns yarn. Love the color, love the name!
I would have to say Ashley's Green. Not only is green my favorite color, my daughter's name is Ashley, and to top it off I have a twin sister as well. It is beautiful roving. All items in shop are very pretty and unique.
I love the Spring roving; it looks like Easter Eggs!
The Silver Gatsby Collection is gorgeous! Thanks for another great contest!
I love the watermelon roving and the amethyst sock yarn.
(I also think the pink checkbook cover is cool, in the 'hey cool, even though I don't really link pink' sort of way)
Rav - LadyOctavia

I like the Beach Riding!

The pink & black yarn is awesome, and the pirate needles, and the tiger needles, and... I could probably go on for awhile, but I do need to go to bed some time tonight!
I'm wickedsharp on Ravelry.
The black and pink yarn! I didn't need to go any further than the first page to find something I loved.. but of course, I did.
LexisKnits on Rav
The Pirate Knitting Needles are so funny - I really like them. Think they would sort of put the "Arghhhhh" I sometimes need in my knitting :)
Diamonds and Guns merino yarn speaks to me. And I just the idea of matching merino roving for spinning a companion yarn!

I love the cherry, grape and blueberry roving:

All of the needles are adorable! I especially loved the zebra, sunset, pirate, and the flames. The 80s ones were hilarious...they really did remind me of decor from the 80s!
I also loved all of her yarns! (I probably love her her fiber too, I just don't know it since I don't spin yet!) And I loved that she has complete jewelry sets, not just coordinating pieces!
tianac2 at Gmail
I love the Golden Pearls and Rowel necklace! I am also impressed by all of the leatherwork. As far as fiber related items, the purpley yarn is my favorite.
I love the Amethyst Sock Yarn. I"m addicted to sock yarn and purple is one of my favorite colors. Thanks for the contest. Debbie
boy that amethyst sock yarn really caught my eye. more than once.
