A Contest!



This blog can get awfully quiet, and I want to step it up. I'm challenging YOU to participate! Just leave a comment on this post telling me what you love to do with sock yarn and you'll be entered into a random drawing on Saturday morning.

The prize is a skein of Bumblebirch Heartwood in Sunkissed! It's 100g/3.5 oz (463yd/423m) of 4-ply fingering weight in 75% superwash merino/25% nylon. Sunkissed is a lovely golden yellow gradient color. I'll even wind it up for you!

I'll start: My favorite thing to with sock yarn is knit lace socks!

Gratitude



I'm thankful for so many things in my life, and YOU are one of them! The creative process of dyeing yarn, making stitch markers and crafting stationary is possible only because of loyal customers who purchase these items. It's something to be cherished and nurtured, and I want to say THANK YOU!

On Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday, I'll be including a free small gift with any purchase from Bumblebirch. I've got unique stitch markers for knitters, handmade envelopes, and gift tags all bundled up and ready to tag along with your new purchase. See you after the turkey!
