MUST READ: I’ve moved, here’s how to follow me still + enter to win a 10-piece American Apparel pack and a knitted portrait just for you

Dear friends,

I have moved my blog over to a new server.

This means that you will need to re-subscribe through my email widget on tinytimes.com. The emails will be the exact same – just fun updates of my posts. It is just a new system.

To provide an incentive (apart from my avant-garde baby fashion and GIFs) to subscribe I am giving away to one winner:

1. A 10-piece American Apparel giveaway – select 10 items from americanapparel.net. You can choose any 10 items you want apart from bags over $60, sunglasses, jewelry, watches, shoes or vintage.

2. A knitted picture by my mum – of the item or person of your choice. Think:

ENTER NOW:

1. Subscribe to my blog by filling in your email on the widget at the top right of tinytimes.com

2. Fill out the form below and answer the question: “What/whom should my mum knit next and why?”

The winner will be chosen based on my favourite knitting suggestion.

Please read the terms and conditions below for further details.

<3 The {Tiny} Times

Terms and Conditions

1. The Promoter is The {Tiny} Times www.tinytimes.com

2. Entrants must be at least 18 years old or must:

a) have the consent of your parent(s) or guardian to enter the promotion, or
b) be a miraculous writer baby who runs your own blog.

If you don’t like knitted goods, my blog, or baby fashion, you may also not see the point in entering.

Employees, directors, management, licensees and contractors of The {Tiny} Times, its related companies and agencies associated with the promotion, the immediate families of the above listed persons, and the retailers of and suppliers to the Promoter *CAN* enter as you are probably the only ones who actually follow me anyways.

3. To enter, entrants must:

a) already be an email subscriber of www.tinytimes.com OR subscribe by email to www.tinytimes.com. If you are unsure if you are already an email subscriber or subscribe via RSS/Bloglovin’, etc, feel free to contact me.

b) fill out the form above with your details and answer the following question: “What/whom should my mum knit next, and why?” Please keep it clean. I am a baby and I will be reading these answers.

c) you do not have to subscribe to American Apparel updates to enter – they have given me this prize to help me promote my blog so  this is what I am doing in return. If you select the box to subscribe you will receive 15% off your first purchase online at www.americanapparel.net If you do not want to receive their emails (which are usually crazy good sales) you might like to check out their Facebook page, where they also have crazy good sales and sometimes even show pictures of cute things like baby fashion bloggers and fluffy dogs. See Figure 1

4. The winner:

a) must resubscribe via the widget on the right-hand side here

b) be an existing email subscriber or subscribe via RSS/Bloglovin’ etc, and

c) nominate the most creative, awesome and feasible thing for my mum to knit next.

This will be judged by me. And possibly the amazing fluffy dog.

5. The American Apparel prize consists of any 10 items, selected by you from www.americanapparel.net. Items are subject to availability and do NOT include: bags over $60, sunglasses, jewelry, watches, shoes or vintage. The maximum value is probably around $2600 IE if you picked 10 of these coats that appear to be one of the most expensive available items at the moment.

The knitting will be in the form of a picture. It will take my mum a long time, will be made with love and will therefore be priceless.

6. Judging will take place on 26 September 12pm UTC at {Tiny} Times HQ. The winner will be notified by email and I will announce your name on www.tinytimes.com and will post a congratulatory GIF.

7. I will give the winner two weeks to claim the prize, after which time I will select another thing for my mum to knit and contact that person. I will keep doing this until someone finally gets back to me and claims the prizes.

8. I don’t know how long it will take my mum to draw and knit your picture but she will try and do it as quickly as possible. It depends on how crazy your suggestion is and how busy she is. She will do it though.

9. The American Apparel 10-piece giveaway will be sent to you directly from American Apparel.

10. My decision is final. You can argue with my mum on Twitter if you like, but she will probably just send you a smiley face and this Ziggy Stardust knitted GIF.  Prizes are not transferable or exchangeable and are not redeemable for cash. All entries become the property of the Promoter. What this really means is that mum may decide to knit other suggestions and you can’t get mad at her or try and make her send you the knitted goods.

11 The Promoter, its contractors, employees and agents, shall not be liable for any claims, losses, damages, injuries, costs and expenses suffered sustained or incurred (including but not limited to indirect or consequential loss) as a result of, arising out of or in any way connected with my knitting or American Apparel’s clothes.

12. Entry into the promotion shall be deemed acceptance of these conditions of entry.

13. I love you.

I didn’t win. I had a great time.

The venue looked magnificent.

There was a lot of colourful and unique lighting.

There was a big crowd, but I wasn’t intimidated.

I made cool friends.
