Did anyone say “Sock Club”?
Wow, you guys really like contests! Competition’s hot and heavy to be mentioned in the most comments and win a $15 store credit at Great Yarn Company! Don’t forget – everyone who comments by midnight on July 4th will be entered in the random drawing for a second $15 store credit!
Looks like most of you are sock-knitters (YEA for socks!!) – me too! And guess what’s coming soon? The very first GYC Sock Club. It’ll be a quarterly club – four sock kits per year, in seasonal colors. Once every three months, you’ll receive a new sock kit. We’re matching up the patterns and yarns, so all you gotta do is knit ‘em! And we’ll tuck some fun goodies into every package. More details and registration coming soon!
Tuesday Tip: How to prevent scissors from poking holes in your knitting bag. 
This one’s so simple! I use a needle point protector as my “scissors-point protector.” Since I usually knit on circulars, I don’t get much use out of my rubbery point protectors, which keep stitches from slipping off the ends of straight needles. So I “re-purposed” one of them, and it now lives on the end of my little knitting/embroidery scissors in my knitting bag.
With visions of sock yarns in my head,
Sue
