Have some fun by creating a monster themed toy in the month of October and stand a chance to win R5000.

Knit or crochet a funny, quirky, scary cute, imaginative monster… anything you can think up. Your monster can be big or small, however you would like… as long as you have some fun! Just be sure to use Elle Cottons 4Ply or DK to craft with. We’ve recently expanded the colours in this range, so be sure to check in with your local stores about price and availability.

To enter, submit a maximum of two photos per entry. One photo should clearly show the Cottons ball band(s) with the item (required). Another image can be submitted showing your item styled creatively. Separate images of the ball bands will not be counted as valid.

Entries are open from 23 September 2022 until midnight, 21 October 2022. The judging team at Saprotex International will go through all the valid entries and select the top entries based on the excellence and presentation of the final product. Those finalists’ items will be uploaded to the Elle Yarns Facebook Page and the public will get to vote for the winner over the course of 5 days.
