Introducting YOTM!! what’s this you ask…read on!!

Introducing…Yarn of the Month!! The first week of each month, I will choose and highlight a different yarn, and offer a 20% discount on that yarn for that particular week (OR while supplies last…some may be discontinued yarns).  I will gather a couple of free patterns for your inspiration, and ask that you share any ideas or experience you have had with that yarn.  I will challenge you all to come up with something fantastic to do with the yarn, (with no rules or regualtions, other than it has to be mostly made from that yarn…let’s say 90%, just to leave room for embellishments and accessories).  After proper judging and sharing, the winner will be announced and will earn a free skein of that same yarn in the colorway of their choosing.  FYI, this can be knitted, crocheted, weaved, spun, glued, tacked, wrapped, frayed, twisted, sculpted, stapled,  ducktaped, etc.   Maybe something like this Albert Einstein bust my daughter Annie did for her school project in the 4th grade.  He has a hole in the bottom where a voice recorder sat and recited her 10 favorite Albert Einstein quotes!!

potential YOTM challenge prize winner

The first YOTM will be announced for the first week of September!!  Check here or on FB, or of course at the store, and maybe I will even get my act together to do an e-mailed version.  Thanks all!  I love more reasons to have a YARN PARTY!!  (Some yarns may be limited, so you won’t want to wait long to grab yours).
