I'm BACK!

We're finally getting back to normal after our big move and here's the best part...

IT'S SALE TIME!

SHOP UPDATE

The shop is being updated today will all sorts of fibery yummies, like new colorways, new base yarns and new spinning fibers.

Here's one of my favorite new items: Knit it Up SeaSilk. A gorgeous laceweight yarn that's a blend of SeaCell and Silk. It's so soft and smooth, drapes beautifully and is perfect for summer knitting. This skein is dyed up in our Milk and Honey colorway.

I'll show you one more, our new fine merino top. It's 19.5 Micron which means it is supersoft, high quality stuff. If it wasn't listed in the shop I think I'd just rub it all over my face all day. It's dyed up in our Southwest Sunset colorway:

Oh yes I mentioned something about a sale didn't I?

To celebrate our etsyversary, we usually have a contest with crazy prizes, but I thought right now you all might appreciate some great discounts instead!

Here's the plan:

SALE: March 30th through April 4th.

Everything 15% Off + FREE Shipping Worldwide!

In addition there will be roaming Mega-Deals that change throughout the week. I'll be shipping everyone's packages on April 6th and 7th, so if you like you can check in every day for the best deals. I'll combine all your purchases together for shipping.

A NEW REFERRAL PROGRAM

In other news, our referral program has changed. Instead of having to refer enough friends to earn a skein of sock yarn, you only have to refer 1 new customer to get an immediate 15% discount at the shop. That way you get rewarded right away (and I don't have to keep track of things).

I have so much more to share after such a long break that I'll be blogging much more often. I'll be sharing about our involvement in the Phat Fiber phenomenon, our plans for the second season of Sock Yarn Cinema and other knitterly happenings.

Happy Knitting!

Rudy Sock Yarn Giveaway

Time to celebrate the superbowl season with some football inspired sockyarn!

December's Sock Yarn Cinema selection was Rudy, so I couldn't help dying up a couple of extra skeins to give away during Superbowl time.

This blue, gold and white colorway on my Silky base yarn was inspired by Notre Dame football uniforms, since Rudy is the story of a young man who dreamed of playing for the team. It's a lovely film, whether you're into football or just love a good story. Especially if you're like me and love to root for the underdog.

OK, to win a skein for yourself, I am asking a bit of advice. I'm planning on finally having a booth at Stitches MidWest this year (yay!), so I've been stressing over the best way to display my goods in a small space. If you've been to a show like Stitches, or even just to an LYS, tell me your favorite way to see yarns displayed: by color, by weight, in baskets, on shelves or pegs. etc. Leave a comment with your suggestions plus your email or ravelry username and I'll pick two entries at random to receive a lovely skein of Rudy sock yarn.

The drawing will be held on Superbowl Sunday and announced by the end of the game, so be sure to leave your comment before kickoff!

Procrastiknitter Supersale and Name That Skein Winner

First, the winner of the Name That Skein Contest is ravelry member knittininto with the name "Beach Glass." There were so many amazing suggestions, but this one fit the blend of greens and blues and soft white so perfectly! It really takes me back to walking along the beach as a kid looking for pretty things to take home. Your skein will be to you soon!

For everyone else, this colorway is now available in the shop and at a fantastic price too! We're having our Procrastiknitter Supersale starting today through Monday December 1st.

15% off everthing in the entire shop, plus there's a roaming mega-deal: a deeply discounted item that will change every few hours. Feel free to shop several times throughout the weekend to get the best deals, we'll refund any additional shipping charges and ship your entire haul together on Tuesday.

Happy Shopping!

Name That Skein!

Here's another one that I thought y'all could help me with: varying shades of emeralds, teals with a touch of creamy white.

Same colorway in multiple bases. What do you think it should be called? I'll pick my favorite and the person who suggests it will get a free skein!

Feel free to enter every idea you come up with - just means more chances to win!

***Make sure you leave some way for me to contact you - your email, ravelry username or etsy username.

I'll choose a winner on November 26th, so I can have them up and listed in the shop in time for our post-Thanksgiving mega sale.
