See you at CampKIP!

It’s official! I’m going to be a vendor at CampKIP in New Haven, MO in April!

CampKIP is a camp dedicated to knitters. You come to relax, knit, drink wine, knit, eat, knit, hang out…knit…you get the picture. The part I’m really excited about is that I’ll get to meet some of my AWESOMESAUCE customers that have found me through Twitter, Ravelry, Etsy or the Phat Fiber box. I’ll be selling my yarn & fiber there on Monday, April 23 and Friday, April 27.

The theme for this year’s camp is…wait for it…GNOMES! Seriously, how could I pass this chance up?! Once I found out the theme was gnomes, I decided that I have to contribute to the goody bag they give out to all the participants. So, I’m currently working on 300 fantabulous “things” to put in the goody bags. Yup, I said 300.

Camp #1 is still currently open for registration if you’re interested. Here’s the CampKIP website with all the details and a link to the Ravelry group.

Hope to see some of you there!

P.S. I dyed some brand new yarn & fiber colorways today! They’ll be up in the shop on Saturday!

Where’s Yarnies?

Ever since I started selling on Etsy, I have been keeping track of the locations that I send orders to on a US and world map.

After doing a tally this past weekend on my US map, I noticed that there is a total of 16 states that I haven’t sent anything to yet. I really want to fill the color in on those states, so I’ve decided to have a fun little giveaway.

The first person to send me a note from each of the states listed below will get a special coupon code good for 20% off ONE item in my shop. It can be used on yarn, fiber or any knit goods currently available. Your note must include your city, state and one thing you like about living there.
