Stitches Yarn Crawl Join
in on a yarn crawl in the Chicago area the week of August 13 through 22. If you are going to Stitches Midwest, please
plan on extending your stay to visit the stores. There are about 20 Chicagoland area stores participating in the crawl.
Participating stores are organizing fun events during this crawl. Each store will
be giving out a store exclusive free pattern, a discount on yarn purchase and a chance to participate in a raffle for a gift
basket worth $100. Yarn crawlers get the chance to participate in the grand prize raffle worth $500 if they visit 10 stores.
We have set up a Ravelry group – Chicagoland Yarn Crawl – for more
information. Participating stores are listing their hours, directions and events in this group. I hope you get the chance
to join us for our first crawl and visit some unique and interesting stores. Please help us spread the word by sharing this
information with your friend. If you have any questions please contact Joan Looi at jlooi1@ameritech.net
