We can’t have a contest without a button, so I made a yummy one with digital yarn. Feel free to take it and upload it to your own hosting site. To use this button you need to right click on it save it to your desktop then upload it elsewhere. Here’s the sample code: <a href=”http://www.yarndiet2007.wordpress.com”> <img src=”your hosting site goes here” width=”110″/>. I recommend a width of 110 for the yarn diet 2007 button and 80 for the sock beach diet button.

This is the future home of Yarn Diet 2007, a contest matching the wills of self-proclaimed yarnaholics. The details for the contest will be announced Noveember 17th in the About Section of this blog.  In the mean time, feel free to check out my blog, MoraieKnitting.
