Jill is a graphic designer by trade, and a knitter by choice! With these two talents, she has created her own line of Knitterella Stationary for knitters. I actually knew of Jill's work before I knew Jill the person- it's popped up all over the big knitting magazines, including Vogue Knitting and Interweave Knits.
Besides the stationary, Jill has also been busy designing logos and layouts for many knitters. If Sally Morgan is the "Physchic to the Stars", then Jill is the "Graphic Designer to the Knitters". If you have been looking for a great graphic designer to work with, you should check out Jill's work (but honestly, if you are a knitter, you've porbably already seen it!). Jill was one of the graphic designers behind Alana's new printed pattern line- so if you read my blog, you saw her work on Monday!
Up for grabs today is the complete set of Knitterella notepads:
One lucky winnner will receive all six notepads from the Knitterella collection. Here's how to enter...
Stop by knitterella.com to check out the rest of Jill's line. What's your favorite item- what would you like to see more of? Leave a comment on this blog post before tomorrow night (midnight, EST) for your chance to win. Winner will be announced on Friday along with the Never Not Knitting Giveaway winner.

I have my own Knitterella notepads- here's one of them hard at work:
This one reads, "Knitting through the day one stitch at a time"- how fitting! This is definitely the
ugly side of working on a new design. Fortunately for you, by the time I have a pattern all ready to go, it's a bit more legible than the above picture!

I'd love to win! I love the note cards. The illustrations are fun.
ReplyDeleteI love everything! But, the thing I need most right now are the gift tags with the care instructions. Those are so cool. I will be ordering some today!
ReplyDeleteI loveeeeeeeeee her note cards! they have such adorable quotes! I tweeted too!
ReplyDeleteI've always loved the note cards, but going to the site I saw the new holiday labels, which are very pretty, and think I'll get some when it gets a little closer to christmas.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the notecards. I ordered some a while back, but they're all gone. I need to order more! :)
ReplyDeleteThe gift tags are brilliant, especially the ones with the washing instructions. I usually just pin the instructions from the ball band to the finished item, bor-ring
ReplyDeleteWow, I love EVERYTHING! But I know that I need a few sets of gift tags for xmas presents! So perfect!
ReplyDeleteI love these notepads (especially sets 2 and 3) and I was actually looking at them for a Christmas gift for my MIL! And her holiday gift tags are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI love the act like you do gift tags!
ReplyDeleteI love the note cards too! But what a great idea are the gift tags with washing instructions!
ReplyDeleteI may have to order the note pads though.
'If knitting were a drug...', Yeah, that one probably fits.
Thanks for the chance to win, I love the gift tags!

I love the "You Better" gift tags!
ReplyDeleteI love her care tags! I always add a tag to my gifted handmade items and these are just perfect! I also have a set of notecards of hers that I love. They are perfect to go with said handmade item.
ReplyDeleteThe gift tags are the absolute best! Love the "I made this especially for you, even if you don't like it, please act like you do" etc. Making me laugh and so true!
ReplyDeleteI like the new holiday gift tags with the care instructions.
ReplyDeleteI like it all... Jill is very talented. But I really need to order some gift tags for Christmas gifts!
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteSorry.... Amanda
I've had my eye on the "Yes, I did make it and no you can't return it" tag. It cracks me up! Plus, I quilt as well as knit so it could work for both of my crafts!!
ReplyDeletei LOVE the quote about knitting another row. my husband could totally attest to knitting delaying our trips outside because i just have to finish something. and the holiday labels are super clever. may need some of those for the christmas presents that are starting to gather....
ReplyDeleteThe holiday gift tags with fiber and care instructions are a GREAT idea. I'm sure it will also be appreciated by the gift recipient.
ReplyDeleteI like Jill's new holiday tags. Clever design.
ReplyDeleteI love Knitterella's holiday tags for handknits. I make my own tags usually, but the icons for fiber care are awesome. I would really love to see some more tags with the fiber care instructions that are n0ot specific to the holidays, as well.
ReplyDeleteAs much as I love the quotes (what they say, the block prink, the colors), I am smitten with the holiday tags!
ReplyDeleteI love the new holiday gift tags with the care diagrams on the back. I would love to see some non-holiday gift tags with the same diagrams. I usually just handwrite all of that stuff out which is kind of a pain in the keester.
ReplyDeleteAll of Knitterella products are all wonderfully fun. I particularly like the "can't return it" gift tags.
ReplyDeleteI saw these in one of the magazines and had to look up the website. I love the gift tags with the care instructions. Also "can't return it" tags
ReplyDeleteI love her gift tags, especially the ones that have the care instructions on the back. I'm also a fan of her tote bags. :)
ReplyDeleteThe holiday tags would make a perfect addition to those hand knit Christmas gifts :) Judy 11 on Rav
ReplyDeleteLove her gift tags, and would love to win a set of her notepads.

I like Gift Tags - Doesn't Mean. And I really like the back of the tags!
ReplyDeleteCedar leaf shawlette. i just love that edging.
ReplyDeleteI love it all! I think my favorites are the knitted scarf notecards because I think all knitters have a TON of scarves! xo
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the "Knitted Sweater Note Card Set" Totally cute! Now just gotta hurry up and knit more gifts for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway! I love the knitted socks note card set.
ReplyDeleteI love everything, how could you not!
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway!!
Twittered as well!
I love the notecards!!! What a fun giveaway - notepads would be put to good use with my wedding coming up in May :)
ReplyDeleteThe notecards look great! Thanks for hosting the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteOh! I love them all! What a generous give away!
ReplyDeleteI really want the holiday gift tags. Would make things SO much simpler!!
ReplyDeleteThese are really adorable! Please enter my name in the drawing. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteOMG all of her things are "must-haves" but I especially like the note cards! So cute! I'd love to win and I also tweeted @Chrissyza!
ReplyDeleteI love the gift tags! What a great touch to a knitted gift!!
ReplyDeleteJpeled on ravelry
I think that the gift tags with washing instructions on the back are genius! I think either generic tags with the instruction option on the back - or other specific ones (like baby items, or a simple congratulations) would be good too.
ReplyDeleteAnd those notepads are awesome - I'd love to have some at work as a quick reminder of fun.
The "Knitted Socks" notecard set is adorable and I love the gift "Doesn't Mean".
ReplyDeleteThanks for a chance to win! :)

I love all of it! The gift tags and notes are so witty and anyone who has ever gifted a handmade items has had similar thoughts run through their head at one point or another.
ReplyDeleteI love the note cards! How stinkin fun!!
ReplyDeleteI love the gift tags they are great!!
ReplyDeleteI love the holiday tags. They are both practical and pretty.
ReplyDeleteI love the note cards and gift tags, so cute. :) I'd love to see a t-shirt with "A Day without knitting is like a day without sunshine". I would so buy that!
ReplyDeleteI love the assortment of gift tags. I have bookmarked them so I can pick some up for my holiday gift giving.
ReplyDeleteThank you for another great give away, I like the gift tags. They all are a great finishing touch to a knitted gift. Keppygirl - Charlene
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful and the quotes are just perfect for some days. Or maybe most days. I like the note cards with the quote of "Sitting Knitting ".
ReplyDeleteI love the gift tags and the note cards are really cool! Love the celebrating on the blog this week...fun fun!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the gift tags. :)
ReplyDeleteWow! So many giveways, my head is spinning ;-) Yes, I love Kniterella's work too. Love her latest holiday tags!
ReplyDeleteI had heard of Knitterella but have never gone to her website. You gave me the chance to do this. I love the notepads. The gift tags with the care instructions are a really good idea.
ReplyDeleteWhile I love the design of the new holiday gift tags, I must admit I love the snarkiness of the older line of gift tags. I would love to see these re-designed with the same backs as the new holiday tags.
ReplyDeleteI also love the note cards and the note pads. Wish I could afford to one of each!
Thanks for all the giveaways.
I love the note cards and also the pads of paper. So cute! My knitting friends would love them for Christmas!
ReplyDeleterellyruffek@hotmail.com
I love all the notecards and would love to see even more of them. My favorites are the Sitting Knitting cards.
ReplyDeleteI tweeted about the giveaway. (@albiongould)
ReplyDeleteI love the gift tags, and need some for Christmas gifts. The humor note cards set 1 are among my favorites, but the one I like the most is "Knitting Brings Me Peace"- so true!
ReplyDeletejennet656@yahoo.com
I have a thing for paper items and my cute note pads. But I have to say I'm loving the note cards. I had stopped over there a few times before, but hadn't seen the spot for them. There are many of the knitted object ones that scream out "Toby" if I were to send some to my friends. Hmmmm thinking I may be putting that on my wish list to give to my husband soon hehe.
ReplyDeleteI love the gift tags - especially the sarcastic ones
ReplyDeleteNobody ever has enough note pads or cards. And they will made nice gifts for the holidays coming up. Also the gifts tags are great.
ReplyDeleteNannyjean
Love all her goodies ... but the gift tags are just pure genius!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI love Jill's holiday labels and have big plans for a purchase soon.
ReplyDeleteThe GIFT TAGS are the best!!!
ReplyDeleteI love notepad set 1! The gift cards are awesome too though....tough decision!
ReplyDeleteI love the note pads and the gift cards - so clever!
ReplyDeleteI like the "no you can't return it" gift tags.
ReplyDeleteI love her her hang tag with the washing instructions on the back. I have seen her notepads at my LYS and I LOVE THEM too! It is so hard to find great knitting stationary tags, stamps etc. Unless, of course, you commision them.
ReplyDeleteThe note pads are awesome! I also love the Holiday Gift Tag, it's a great idea!

"Just because it's handmade doesn't mean it was cheap".
ReplyDeleteBecause I'm sick of hearing- "Oh! You must save soooo much money making all your own things!"
I think the "knitted socks" note cards are my favorite. Since I give away so many of the socks I knit, these would be the perfect gift wrapping touch!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite is the Happy Holidays gift tag- practical but also beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLove the Notepads...esp #2 set! It describes my days!
ReplyDeleteI love the "You Better" gift tags. That's usually what I'm thinking when I gift a knitted item! I'd love to see even more quirky gift tags!
ReplyDeleteMy family will flip over the gift tags at Christmas. They will make my knitting look so professional. And, the notepads are adorable and so practical!
ReplyDeleteI love these Gift Tags - Act LIke You Do, I make something for all my co-workers every year, and I have yet to see them worn. This year it's hats and these gift tags would be perfect! Thanks for the giveaway. Debbie in Alaska
ReplyDeleteJust the presents I needed for some on my list. They're great! Thanks for the introduction. And happy anniversary!
