give-away? give-away? why yes!
With the permission of the marvelous and talented Miss Babs, who provided yarn for Fiori Autunnali, I am giving away a skein of her gorgeous Wild Silk (100% tussah) in Roasted Pumpkin, the color used in the original shawl! Along with that skein of loveliness will go beads enough to complete the shawl. These are also the original beads used: size 6/0 Japanese seed beads in iris bronze (metallic).
This all goes along with my new Craftsy class, of course. :) And here again is the link to purchase that class for 25% off!

I love your patterns! I've made a few already and have purchased some of your 7 Small Shawls. I've also used some of Miss Babs' yarns before. Thanks for the opportunity to win this!
Hooray! I'm so excited!!!
Marianne Neermann, Neerlypurls!
This is so beautiful! Elements of three of my favorite Romi shawls all in one. And in such a lovely color!
Beautiful colour and pattern.
All of your work is beautiful! I've never had the opportunity to use Miss Babs' yarn before.
I'm definitely a fan of all your work, but this is beautiful stuff!
Well I bought the Craftsy class and this yarn would, of course, be perfect for it. I would love to win! janineny2001 on Rav
People are so impressed with the shawls I've knit, but I know the truth. You make me look good. :-)
I'm so excited to actually have some visual tutoring for lace knitting. Being self-taught leaves me always wondering why certain stitches don't quite look like the expert knitters and asking, "Now what am I doing wrong?" Now I'll be able to SEE how to do it correctly!! Thank you Romi!
Woohoo! Me please! ;)
I already got the class, now to find the time to get beyond section 1. :D
I'd love to win this!
Oh, drool. just, drool. Miss Babs silk and Romi's design? Drool.
Wow! The beauty of the shawl and your generosity are overwhelming. Yes, please enter me in the drawing and thank you.
ROMI you are amaizing how you keep designing more and more.....
I emailed several people in my spinning group, and one of them has now also bought the class and the yarn in Cloak... does that count for an extra entry? ;)
I RTed on Twitter (I'm @WordLily there).
Congratulations on beautifully done Craftsy class. You are FABULOUS! I just came >< that close to buying the yarn because I love the color, but I'll wait to see if I possibly win something for the first time in my life.
Good job Romi.

The last two shawls of this year's patterns are gorgeous ! I am spinning to knit the blackjack ... while on vacation I hope ... The contest invited me to comment. Since I never win I will be glad for whomever is the lucky winner.
I Love the new design for the class.
The yarn is so beautifull - just love it!!!!
I re-tweeted on twitter but my account is private.
What a beautiful shawl! And what a lovely colorway!
Yup, just posted it in one of my Ravelry groups as well. Because I have to. ;)
What a lovely shawl and what a lovely colorway!
What a fantastic giveaway!! This shawl is so stunning!
Love the pattern and the yarn colour. I would be so excited to win this yarn to match the pattern.

What a beautiful shawl. Would love to do it in the original yarn.
I never got around to knitting Madrona or Fiori! PERFECT opportunity to get BOTH!! Thank you dear Romi!n (I'll do a bit of tweeting... ;)
That is a beautiful shawl and I am a sucker for anything lace and beaded!
I shared your status on my facebook page.
Gorgeous, just like all of your designs!
Congrats on your class!! I hope I win.
This shawl is amazing! I am sure the class is spectacular!
I'm always thrilled with your lace designs. Now I just need to start knitting faster! I'm falling behind...
Seriously?! Well, I know I'll get it anyway but winning is SO much better. I wonder if I'll ever get through all your patterns...it'll be fun to try!
So gorgeous, what a beautiful yarn/pattern combo!
Samantha (aka litfoh)
Oh, and you bet I'll tweet, plurk and Facebook! The more, the merrier!

This is so beautiful, it is definitely going on my to knit list.
love the color of the yarn and the pattern!
That is one big shawl! The colour looks perfect too :D
Another fabulous shaw, that I was not planning on knitting!
Bought the class and watched it, now if I can get my fingers to work the belly button magic, it will be a miracle.
Once my arm is healed from surgery, I will attempt to do the belly button start myself, instead of paying some to do it for me!
Thank you again Romi, for another beautiful project
And.... now tweeted. I didn't realize I was so socially savvy. Who knew?! Ha! xo
Lace is my favorite!I'm a knitter!I'm a winner?

Romi I'm so happy to be a part of your group. Your patterns have challenged me to be a better knitter and learn something new with each new pattern. I'm so excited to learn to knit this new lace shawl from your Craftsy class and it's so great to finally meet you on the Craftsy platform and see your beautiful personality. Thanks.
Love the pattern!
Ooooh, pretty!
I'm so excited to finally take a class with you! You bring us so many hours of pleasure, it's thrilling to actually learn from you!
Congratulations on your first Craftsy class, I'm sure it will not be your last!
Romi's pattern and Miss Babs yarn-----what a fantastic combination!!
Beautiful yarn - beautiful colour and I love the design
That is the prettiest shawl I have seen and thank you Romi for the chance.
I'd love to win this!
fowlervillesdeb on Raverly
Miss Babs makes some lovely yarn, though I've never used her tussah. I'd definitely be willing to take that off your hands ;). Your new design is gorgeous, put it right in my queue so I will knit it soon!
What a gorgeous shawl. It just calls out to me to be knit.
I've signed up for the Craftsy class.
Thank you for this giveaway. Winning the yarn to make the shawl would be the icing on the cake.
Gorgeous looking yarn and I'll bet it's the softest ever. I hope I win this! :)
Love your patterns, working on my second one now. They are beautiful. Have progressed to lesson 3 of your craftsy class.
So happy to see your class has finally launched (I've been checking Craftsy every day)...LOVE Miss Bab's yarn...
Simply divine! So many Romi shawls that I love and so little time to knit them all!
I love the Craftsy platform, and I love knitting lace!

What a beautiful pattern and yarn combination! Thank you for the opportunity to win some of Miss Babs' yarn.
Oh I'd love to win that yarn! So here's comment number one! :D
Another gorgeous pattern, Romi. There's a lot of knitting there, but it's nice to see a full blown BIG shawl. Congratulations on joining the Craftsy team. And many thanks to Miss Babs for a luscious giveaway.
Awesome!!!!!
Stunning, amazing, fabulous......just like you!!
How generous of both of you.
You are spoiling us!
Match made in heaven! romi and miss babs!
Wonderful opportunity to win...thanks!!
A very elegant yarn that I would love to win so I could knit your shawl.
Wow, what a stunning collection of elements- pattern, yarn and beads. Just gorgeous!! Would love to be able to play with them :)
So happy to see this Craftsy class. Somewhat new to lace and your patterns are so gorgeous but I find the finished projects appear somewhat intimidating in choosing to tackle - so this will be great having the class to help me along! Miss Babs yarn is lovely and I love the pumpkin color!
Spectacular shawl and would love to try out this beautiful yarn!
Beautiful shawl. Tanks for the chance to win the yarn and Beas to make it!

What a wonderful opportunity to knit your beautiful shawl in such a lovely color.
Congratulations on your Craftsy class.
Hi Romi, I didn't know you were doing a class for Craftsy. That's terrific. I love their classes and have quite a few. Most likely, I will sign up for yours also. I love your shawls and would love to win this yarn and the beads.
Awesome! Including the beads would solve that part of the decision making process. I bought the class today...so windfall to finally "hear you" as well as learn something new. Thanks for your generosity! ^_^
I have posted your giveaway on Facebook.... Such fun!
Love your designs! I can't wait to do another Romi shawl!
Posted this on the Ravelry forum of my local knitting friends.

oh so pretty!
Really, really want to win this yarn! Thanks in advance for picking my lucky number!
Loved the original Fiori and now this fall beauty.... to win a skein would be wonderful. Thanks for another lovely design.

Miss Bab's yarn is my favorite! This shawl is too stunning for words. I really hope I win!
Being able to knit one of Rosemary's shawls with this beautiful yarn is just the best!

I just posted about your class, pattern and drawing in my favorite spinning group on Ravelry! Fiori Autunnali would look fantastic in handspun.
Oh my goodness, another beautiful shawl! And I can't wait to see your next series of 7!
I was just cruising around in Miss Babs website yesterday for the first time. It must be a sign!
ps: congrats on the Craftsy course. It looks amazing.

I would like to be entered 2 more times. I have posted on Twitter and Facebook. Thanks Rosemary.
Oh yummy yum yum! Love your pattens, have all of the 7 small shawls books and a couple more patterns to boot! Fingers crossed.
