Yarn Giveaway








We are moving and I am consolidating and purging.  I found this yarn that I have been storing and, at first, I was going to give it to Goodwill.  Then, I remembered how some of the ladies on the blogs and Facebook pages I am a member of were so excited when they found yarn bargains at yard sales.

On that note, I want to say, yes, some of the yarn has been used, mostly when I was re-learning how to crochet a few years ago, but I switched to different yarn after I started selling on Etsy and I hate to see this go to waste.  If you like Red Heart Super Saver or Craftsman yarn, then this is for you.

I will do a drawing on Saturday, June 21st, and will send this yarn to the winner free of charge, even paying for the postage.  It has been stored in a smoke free, pet free home.

If you are interested, please leave your name and email address below so that I can let you know if you win.  I will also post the winner next Saturday.  I know it isn't much, but free is free and someone would love to have it!

Thanks!  Good luck!

Janice
