I had good news to start off the weekend for the lucky winner of the random drawing for the Schaefer yarn that I blogged about last Saturday here. I’ve emailed Rose and already heard back from her to claim the prize. I’m just waiting for the mail pickup and Rose’s prize is on the way to her!
I hope you had as much fun with this as I did. I loved reading your ideas and suggestions about which HeartStrings pattern you like best that could be made in this yarn. It was really amazing all the variety of answers. If you posted early in the week and did not see the comments later in the week, take a browse through for additional ideas that you might not yourself have first considered.
As a thank you to everyone, originally I was planning to do a special coupon offer for the pattern mentioned in the winner’s comment entry. Actually, Rose included the names of 2 patterns in her comment –
“Such a lovely yarn. I think it would make a perfect Lace Leaves Scarf. The colors remind me so much of taffy though that I might have to make my first ever socks with your Pulled Salt Water Taffy Socks.”
Rather than using the first named pattern for the special coupon offer, I am feeling generous this lovely Saturday morning with the first hint of cool weather for our New Orleans area, and I am going to do the offer for either (or both) of those patterns, or others of your choice since there were so many good suggestions from everybody!
Here’s the deal:
Use Coupon Code HSFANOCT in the Ravelry Store for HeartStrings patterns at
http://www.ravelry.com/stores/jackie-erickson-schweitzer-designs
and get 10% off when you purchase two or more HeartStrings patterns at the same time. You can use the coupon as many times as you want. Offer expires October 31, 2011. But don’t wait ’til then and forget.
And it’s fine to share this coupon with your friends on Ravelry, on Facebook, Tweet it, share it with your knitting groups, whatever.
I appreciate you introducing your friends to HeartStrings and spreading the word.
Thank you for being a fan of HeartStrings.
Happy knitting! Jackie E-S / HeartStrings FiberArts
