#Mountain colors yarn twizzle free

I turned in my passport at my local yarn store ( Nomad Yarns) – whee!!! I won’t talk about everything I purchased in detail (at the risk of this post taking half an hour to read) but will highlight my top items. I visited three more stores with a friend one evening after work and then hit the remainder on my own. It was a crazy day – we left at 8am and got back around 6pm.

I went to nine of the fifteen stores the first Saturday with a group of friends. In addition, there is a yarn dyed specifically for the yarn crawl and a pattern you get with your passport. At the last shop they certify your passport and are entered into the large prize drawings. If you make a purchase at the store, you get 10% off and an entry in that shop’s raffle drawing.
