Free giveaway? Did someone say Free?

Be prepared to spontaneously gestate......or at the very least be compelled to steal someone's baby just so you can put this on chubby feet.
















These will be the giveaway. Answer this question correctly:
How many stitches did it take to create this beautiful display of baby-wearable art?

Rules:
  • contest ends 3/29/2010
  • you must be pregnant (be prepared to prove it if I ask)
  • you may submit one guess each day until the contest ends
  • you must guess in the comments section of this blog post - for everyone to see!!!
  • just like the price is right, the person who guesses closest to the actual number without going over, wins!

If you don't want to pay for some, come to Knit Click on April 12th and learn to make them yourself.

Otherwise, they'll be $15 for one pair. It's made of 70% merino wool, 20% alpaca, 10% silk. This is quality stuff here. So, get to guessin'.

I'm calling the ACLU. And the National Organization for Women. And...and...I don't know...Gloria Allred!!

That's total discrimination against the non-pregnant.

:)

By the way, they're really, really cute. I have a newly pregnant friend I'll probably be ordering some for in the near future.

First guess - 55

I want to come to the Knit Click but I have to check the hubs schedule to see if he'll be in town. Because I am not taken the kiddos with me. So hopefully I can make it.

Chrystie said...

Linds said...

250.

those are the cutest booties! by the way, i just found out M has to take the van on the knit click day! suck. so, if you could let me know who might be going that lives up by me could you let me know so that maybe i could get a ride. oh, they would need to have room for my two kids too. sigh. i really hope i can go.

Unknown said...

I am totally preggo and totally want these so here's my guess for the day - 50. I don't know the first thing about knitting so don't laugh if that's a totally idiotic guess.

Unknown said...

Shoot Tiffany guessed 55, I can't guess so close to her. I guess 200 just to throw off the balance.

The Galan Family said...

These booties are adorable and I WANT THEM!! My guess is 221.

Jennifer said...

I'll be in the corner with Brandi but good luck to all the pregnant ladies!! =D

Marianne said...

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! Jamie. I didn't know you were preggs.

Best of luck to all of you preggy girls! Want a clue? Too bad. You're not getting one!!


Keep guessing.

Day 2 of guessing, I'm going with 265 today.

Brandon said...

Okay, so I am WAY off (compared to everyone else) on my guessing, but I am guessing 300. I SHOULD just do the Bob Barker thing and guess 267... Okay, so 267 it is... sorry Jamie. These are too cute to pass up on. I'll see you tomorrow, I suppose. ;) Go Marianne! These are adorable. LOVE the button.

Ariella said...

ooooh! These are super cute! I have a bootie pattern, but this one is definitely cuter and looks easier, too. hmmmmm.

Not gonna a venture a guess. Don't want to test the fates. I'll make some with you though, when I get back from all my vacations, of course. :)

Dasha said...

175 - i'm with jamie, no clue.

Monique said...

Day 2: (Thanks for the reminder!) I am also saying 300. I think I might be WAY off, but I have to think that you did more than 50 stitches... These look a LOT harder than that!

The Galan Family said...

K the picture of the bootie won't load on my computer today so my guess is a total guess.... I'll say 280.

Linds said...

my 2nd guess: 156

Unknown said...

Brandon-you suck! Is this really Monique hiding under a cover name?

So guess #3-268. Take that.

That was so not the # I planned on guessing today but I'm into the Price is Right method now too.

Monique said...

Good job Jamie!! Stick it to him!! (Okay, so it was really me.) And I knew you would do that... playful banter at it's best. ;) Thanks for letting us play Marianne!
