More Yarn Crawl News! Prizes and Bus Schedule!

Okay, the Yarn Crawl is coming RIGHT UP! I know, I know, I told you this already. Now I'm here to give more details including the bus schedule. You don't have to ride the bus to participate in the crawl-- you can drive yourself around. But going on a bus filled with your fellow yarn fanatics bumps the experience up a notch. Plus, you don't have to keep your eyes on the road-- you can look at all your lovely purchases. Here are some basics (for all the details check out the official website):

• The crawl is four days: October 8 - 11 inclusive.
• To participate, pop by the store and buy a passport ($20)-- you'll get a commemorative bag, too.
• Eleven Hill Country shops are participating. You'll get a free gift at every shop you visit.
• Get a passport stamp at each stop-- those with at least 8 stamps can win big prizes.
• Even if you don't hit 8, you're still entered at every shop you visit for a $25 gift certificate.
• Grand Prize? $400 worth of fiber fabulousness!

About the bus: $50 gets you a seat and a stop at several shops. You also get lunch. There are several buses departing from different locations on different days. Buses leave at 9 am and return at 6 pm. Below is the schedule and, below the schedule check out pictures of some of the great prizes we're giving away.
