ATTENTION: The Afghan Contest has come to a close. The Contest folder is still open so, if you have any un-submitted entries, please get them in ASAP (folder will become closed on July 1st.)  Also, please make sure that you have submitted to the Spring 2018 Contest folder and not the Afghan folder. (If you made that mistake, please leave a comment for admin and we can move your deviation into the correct folder.

Thank you!

Hello everyone! We only have one weekend left in 2017, so it's the perfect time to announce a new contest. For the start of 2018, instead of doing our usual monthly contests, we are going to spend the entirety of the Spring season for ONE contest.

What kind of contest is that? AFGHANS!

We had great feedback from our 2017 Afghan contest, so we are doing it again for 2018.

While 2018 will start off during the winter season, we are including the months of January & February in the contest.



RULES:

- Entries can be of anything you would otherwise be able to submit to the group, being of fiber art; this includes knitting, crochet, felting, and creations made using fibers.

- Limit 3 entries per person.

- NEW entries only! We know you guys are always creating, but we want to make sure everyone gets a fair share to create something new for this contest! (Please do not submit items that were made prior to this month. If it was completed prior to this contest, the item is not valid to be judged.)

- You MUST have the group icon :icondaknitters: somewhere in your description. (You can do this by typing : icondAKnitters : minus the spaces.) You must state that your piece is for the Spring 2018 Contest.

- Submit your entry to the folder, "Spring 2018 Contest".  (daknitters.deviantart.com/gall…)
The folder will be opened on January 10th, and will remain open until June 21, 2018, the official end date of the Spring season.

Would a baby blanket count as an afghan? I know some people have different definitions...
