Holiday Dye Deals!

Happy Labour Day! To make up for some ongoing delinquency in blog updates, I am posting below all the yarn and fibre dyed this weekend. While more will be coming soon, and hitting the Etsy shop & my wholesale spots, I'm going to make a deal for those of you who took the trouble to look me up.

You see, if you buy my yarn or fibre at an LYS, you're paying a markup, though I think a perfectly fair one, to a second businessperson who takes the chance and the trouble to stock my goods. And if you buy on Etsy, great as I think that service is, I am only able to charge you in US dollars, and a portion goes to Etsy.

So here's the deal. See something you like in this blog post? You have until 8 pm Eastern Daylight Time on Tuesday September 8th to email LoftyFibres AT Gmail DOT com (you know how to put that together, right?) with what you would like, and your paypal-enabled email address. I will invoice you in CANADIAN funds, at $20 even per 4 oz braid of fibre or 115 gram sock yarn, plus $5 shipping.

This is a 24 hour deal only - after that, you may find the new items (and lots more) through Shall We Knit in New Hamburg, All Strung Out in Guelph, at the Waterloo County Knitters' Fair (with SWK and ASO) or on Etsy.

Fine print: Please note the fibre photos are of 8 oz or 2 full braids of fibre - 2 of each colour are available, price is per 4oz braid.
