So, about the raffle

If you read this blog with any regularity, or irregularity as may reflect my updates, then you're aware that every three months I hold a waffle raffle (and I call it that in protest of their non-rhyming, in fact, I like to rhyme them when I say it, I even switch up which one gets the honor of being rhymed, yeah, 'cause I'm all about sticking it to the american language, one mispronounced word at a time). The raffle, historically, or you know, for the last half a year, has been for a free spot in my art yarn club where the winner (and also the 14 other people that buy a spot for 100 smackaroos) gets one hank of art yarn each month for 3 months.

However, as great as the art yarn club has worked out, I just don't have the time to do it this season. I'm swamped. I've got eyeballs coming out of my wazoo, which is not pretty, I've got several thousand dollar yarn shop orders coming up before the holidays, plus all the customs, and I can't continue neglecting my own little insubordiknit yarn shop. So, those are my excuses. I just can't do it this season.

However (#2, if you're keeping track) I will still hold the raffle. I like the raffle and from the feedback I've gotten, you like it too. I haven't given any yarn away this month and I really do like to give yarn to people that couldn't otherwise get it (such as myself, if I wasn't the spinner).

However (#3) the raffle is going to be a bit different this time. It's not going to stretch over 3 months like the club, it's going to be a one time package of 3 yarns. Three Vitreous Humor yarns, in fact. Yes, I'm raffling off three Vitreous Humor yarns! It's crazy popular and I know there are people out there that want it but can't shell out the cash.

Next week I'm heading to my folks with the kids, I'll set up the raffle up before I go and send out numbers when I return on Halloween. The drawing will be Sunday the 4th of November.
