I was contacted about a month ago by Olaf about doing a yarn giveaway on her blog. In conjunction with the March Yarn of the Month sale through the shop, I offered to send her a skein of my Aerten Sock (which is a yummy blend of merino, cashmere and nylon), to sample and review.
Using that yarn (in the Pewter colorway), Olaf also has written up a great textured gloves pattern, which you can read about in her blog post/yarn review. And if you read all the way through the post, you can check out a variety of different prizes, including a skein of this versatile yearn, just by commenting (either on her blog, or one of the social network options, or all of the above!).
It was a lot of fun to answer her questions, and get this giveaway together. It's a great transitional-weight yarn that works well for a lot of projects, so be sure to pop on over to read her review and get yourself signed up to be in the running for the giveaway! (If you are in the market for a larger number of skeins, please also note that this yarn base is 10% the entire month of March as well!)
All for now..
A new blog to add to my blogreader! Of course, I entered her contest too.
