Storied Yarns Percy Jackson Yarn giveaway!



Yay! I've been wanting to feature Storied Yarns on the blog for a while now! You may have seen Jesse on Ravelry as Jessecreations (go friend her, you'll be glad you did!) and she is the sweetest bubbliest, funniest, person! Jesse is also very creative- she is a writer by trade and bases her all of her colorways on books!

Last month, Jesse sent in a cute pattern for a crochet star motif and to illustrate how darn sweet she is, she tucked these earrings in for me as a gift! Oh how I love my big dangly earrings! Thank you Jesse! So, she's a talented designer as well ;)

If you missed out on Storied Yarns "Percy Jackson SAL" here is your chance to have 50g of the exclusive colorway! Just visit Storied Yarns, find something you like, write about it in the comments section below and you'll be entered to win! We would love it if you would help twitter, facebook, ravelate etc about Storied Yarns too- we'd love it so much that we would count that social networking as an extra entry. Just let us know you did it!

  13. I really like the O. Henry Ending - Merino Sock yarn as well as the little story that goes with it. Whoever thought we could even become more "literate" by visiting an Etsy shop. Have decided to do a simple lace shawlette and wouldn't it be nice to have a "one of a kind" shawl as well.

  16. I'm a huge Percy Jackson fan and used to pimp it to everyone when I worked in a bookstore. I'm loving the Florida Beaches yarn in your shop now, though. Looks like it'd be fun to knit up!

  17. I gotta choose Persephone SW Merino Worsted, since it is also DD's middle name!

  33. I loved the Florida Beaches colourway. My sister would completely flip for the Percy Jackson yarn - she adores the series (and I have to agree that they're pretty fun reads).

  34. Grapes of Wrath is cool. Apropos of very little, I was just listening to a news story about baboons in South Africa stealing the best grapes because the vineyards are encroaching on their foraging grounds. But have no fear, the wrath of the vineyard owners comes to nought because the baboons are protected!
