Catawampus Farm Sock Yarn Giveaway!


Today, we're giving away a scrumptious sock yarn from Catawampus Farm called "Special Delivery" which is a delicious blend of Merino/Cashmere/nylon. It's super soft and lofty and I know you'll love it! A portion of each sale of special delivery sock will go toward supporting midwives in Maine!

This colorway is called "Rocket!" and is named after a surprise colt that was born earlier this year on Catawampus farm. Catawampus farm seems like a magical and beautiful place for some lucky animals!

To enter to win this sock yarn, please visit the Catawampus Farm Shop today, find something you love, and write about it in the comments section below. We'll draw for a winner later in the week!

Ooooh they're all so pretty it's hard to choose - I think I'd have to go with Superwash Merino/Cashmere/Nylon DK yarn--Ocean, but only because I have the perfect buttons to go with. :-)
