apparently i’ve been spinning a lot ;)
notes about the name game:
name the yarns by either clicking over to this flickr set and leaving comments on the photos, or by commenting on this blog post using the numbers to keep track of which yarns you are naming.
if your name is chosen and you might be interested in the yarn, contact me (cosyknitsliterally (!at) gmail (dot!) com within 26 hours. in this case, the game ends friday, September 5th at 2pm eastern time, so you have until 4 pm on saturday. once you contact me, i’ll send you the specs on the yarn and then you can decide if you want it or not.
if you decide to to take the yarn of your naming, you get a 5% discount and free shipping in the US and Canada. If you are outside of those two countries, you get a couple of dollars knocked off shipping. have fun and thanks for playing!
