Pigskin ’20: Scavenger Hunt

Who is ready for a Scavenger Hunt?

To find all of the details on Ravelry click here.

Please read this carefully as the rules have changed from previous seasons.

I will post a clue and you will post a sponsor item on IG or in the monthly Huddle Thread with the #dcspigskinparty20SHweek_. You will replace the _ with the corresponding letter for the week ie: A, B, C etc. So for this week you will use #dcspigskinparty20SHweekA

  • Clues will be posted sometime during the day on Monday.
  • Clues never expire so post anytime during the season.
  • You can only score points once for each clue but if you find multiple answers post away.
  • If you post on Ravelry or IG must include a photo of the item, use the hashtag AND tag/earburn the sponsor so they know they are loved and appreciated.
  • If you post on Ravelry or Instagram, add your points using the Point Tally Form.
  • Each week is worth 25 points.
  • Complete all of the weeks and earn an extra 300 points.

You do not need to send Lisa a PM this year. We will be verifying through the #.

Start sleuthing and have fun. Let’s show lots of love and appreciation to our sponsors that have donated items and time to make all this possible!

Remember, if you have questions, please post them in the Questions Thread.

Week A

Goals, yards, scrimmage and downs 
Are marked on the field with lines 
Crossing these earns you benefits and points

Week B

First we found the lines now lets look for numbers 
Numbers mark the yard lines 
Numbers identify the player 
Numbers tell us the score.

Find a sponsor item that used as number either as part of the item or in the name.

You must post a photo of the item and earburn / tag the sponsor 
Use #dcspigskinparty20SHweekB

Week C

We all know the best part of watching a football game is snacking 
Whether you enjoy an ice cold beer and Doritos or water and fruit 
Eating through the tailgate party and the game is part of the fun.

This week find a sponsor item that also has to do with food/beverage 
Is there a food/beverage in the design name, a picture of it on a bag or stitch marker, in a yarn name

Post a photo of the object and tag/earn burn the sponsor

You must use the #dcspigskinparty20SHweekc when posting

Week D

The football season runs from the end of Summer, all of Fall and through the middle of April.
5 months of knitting spanning 3 different seasons.

Find a sponsor item that has the name of one of our 4 seasons mentioned in the title of the pattern, yarn, stitch marker, colorway etc. The words Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall must be in the name of the item. ETA: Autumn is another season word that is acceptable.

Show a photo of the item and Tag or Earburn the maker when giving praise.

Use the #dcspigskinparty20shweekD to earn your points.

Week E

We all tend to root for a home team. Either the home where you grew up or the hometown where you currently live. Every team represents a place.

Find a sponsor item with the name of a place or town. This can be a region, state, city, or town name. Show a photo of the object and earburn or tag the sponsor when you show off their item

Don’t forget to use #dcspigskinparty20shweeke

Week F

It’s fun to have a favorite team to follow! We cheer their successes and are saddened by their losses. We talked about the fact that teams come from places but they also have a name. Using the team name ie: Patriot, Bear, Saint etc. find a sponsor with a product whose name is also the name of a sports team. Any team any sport (not just American football). Post a photo of the sponsor item for all to oooohhhh and aaaahhhh over (in the November Huddle Thread). Don’t forget to include a link, tag or #hashtag for the sponsor so others can find them and post on Ravelry or IG.
