FREE TO GOOD HOME…….shipping extra

Greetings to my fellow crochet and yarn lovers! I assume that most of you out there LOVE yarn, hooks, magazines, patterns, books, etc as much as I do. I have a HUGE stash of such things. Some of them need new homes where they will be better appreciated.

Soooooo, here’s the deal. Once a month (or so), I’ll be offering a batch of freebies that will go to a blog reader for the (actual) price of postage. I can give the stuff away, but I can’t pay the postage for every package every month. So, check back here. When you see something that you NEED, want, yearn for, I’ll give the means for you to contact me and the way to determine which person (if more than one wants the stuff) gets it – a mini-contest. Then, the ‘winner’ will send me the stamps for shipping (via priority mail so the shipping will be pretty much standardized). Once I receive the stamps, the package will be on its way to its new home. Sound good?

What’s in it for me? Well, I hope you’ll spread the word so more people will read my blog. I also hope to get rid of this clutter I live in! When I say large stash, I MEAN large stash. So, it’ll be mutually beneficial til it’s either all gone or I find more goodies that I want to share. Those who know me locally have been the recipients of my destashing before. Now, I’m just widening that circle.

RULES:

*To enter, you’ll email me privately ([email protected]) with the answer to whatever the particular month’s question or contest during the three day period of the contest.

*The winner will be notified ON THE BLOG, will then contact me privately so that I can give the snail mail address to send the stamps to and the $$ amount of stamps.

*I guarantee that the retail value of the package will exceed the cost of the stamps – even tho’ many batches WILL include used books or magazines.

*Available only to mailing addresses in the US (at least for now).

*Here are some ideas of what I have on hand:

Workbasket Magazines

Other Crochet or Craft Magazines

Yarn or Crochet Thread

Hooks

Patterns and Leaflets.

So, here’s the first batch of goodies:

January 2006 Crochet! Magazine
Annie’s Pattern Club #44 (April-May, 1987)

Classic Collars II leaflet of 8 collars by Genetta Wright (1987).
