Kid Goat Coat Giveaway!

In the spirit of giving that seems to have affected this board, I am giving away 2 hand crocheted baby goat coats, pictured below (not certain of the colors).

Kid Goat Coat Giveaway! - Goats


Enter your name in a post below. The name will be drawn out of a hat by my 10 year old daughter on Nov. 21st (two weeks from today). I have many colors so I will just have her pick out two that she likes, so the colors will be a surprise.

The lucky winner's gift will be mailed shortly after the drawing.

Those are very cute!!!! I'd like to throw my name in the hat!
I do have a question. hope it's ok to post it here. Are they better just for in house use? Or can they be used in the barn with bedding? Would they collect too much of it?
I was told many, many times that goats weren't to be in the house. But never got any complaints when they where in the house!!

I would say they can be used inside and out. They tend to collect shavings more so than straw. Straw is easier to pick out as well. They are machine washable and machine driable. So they are easy to take off and wash quickly.

Keep the names coming.

Do you have a pattern you can share? I would love to make some and have ready for my babies. Look at the response! So many people admiring your handiwork. I think the nicest thing is the don't look like they could easily wiggle out.
