Not so long ago, (October 2013 to be exact) I set up shop on Storenvy to sell my hand dyed yarn. I hoped and prayed people would like my yarn, but I never dreamed I would get the response I have had. So many of you have purchased my yarn, and you keep coming back! I can't tell you how happy it makes me to be able to share my passion for not only dyeing yarn, but knitting as well. I love "talking" with you all on Facebook, and I love to see pictures of the projects you have completed using my yarn!
So, to say THANK YOU, I am giving away a lovely Vera Bradley bag, some beautiful glass beads, a cute flower highlighter, a few mini packets of SOAK, and of course - yarn! There is some fingering/sock weight, DK, worsted, and chunky weight yarn.
This is open to those in the US only, 18+ please, and will run through midnight August 31, 2014 EST.
Just use Rafflecopter below to enter!
