We are stocked to the gills on Interweave products so this is just one more great reason to shop at Bobbin's Nest during the holiday season!



$5 Rebate for Local Yarn Shop Customers from Interweave

On Wednesday, November 25, Interweave will launch its first rebate program for Local Yarn Shop customers. We will be emailing a rebate voucher to our entire Knitting Daily email list good for a $5 rebate on a single Interweave product purchase at their local retailer.

This rebate is vaild for a single purchase of any Interweave product - book, magazine, DVD - anything with an Interweave logo.

How it works:

After making a purchase in your store between November 25, 2009, and December 31, 2009, your customers simply mail us their original receipt along with the completed rebate form that we send them via email on 11/25 and we'll send them a check for $5. That's it. All you have to do is make sure you have plenty of Interweave products to sell.

Note: Only one rebate per customer during this time period.

Rowan's Calmer hits the sale area!

Rowan's "Calmer" yarn is now in the sale section...40% off. Get it while it's hot!

We also have the Rowan Calmer book and several Rowan magazines that call for Calmer yarn!

Today I got the email I have been waiting for

I have been waiting for months to read the following in an email...

"I'm delighted to let you know that Ysolda's new collection Whimsical Little Knits 2 is now ready to order wholesale!"

Can I get a halleluyah? I bought 30 copies that most likely will be shipped out on Monday (knowing Ysolda Teague's excellent customer service). If you would like a copy please give us a call and we will put one aside for you when they arrive from Scotland.

I promise...last Polyvore plug...for now anyway

You know my new favorite website Polyvore? Yeah, well, guess who got mentioned on their blog! I *heart* them even more now!

More fun with Polyvore!

I am having more fun with Polyvore then I probably should be...today I combined it with one of my favorite shows, Mad Men. Do you watch this show? The fashion alone is divine dahhhling, divine! Joan is definitely my favorite character. I think I secretly want to be that tall, buxom, redhead with a great eye for fashion (although, two out of three ain't bad). Above is my "Joan" look complete with her trademark 1960's pen necklace.

What does this have to do with crafting? Nothing...just thinking outside the box a little and it's getting the creative juices flowing.

Fashion Redux

This morning I stumbled on Polyvore thanks to Posie Gets Cozy. What fun! It reminded me of the "Sweater Challenge" that Jordana Paige is running on her blog. Both projects are about styling the clothes you already have with little bits and bobs you pick up along the way!

Above is one of the 'typical Erin' looks you find me in at the shop. A little vintage inspiration, a great trench, scarf, knitted beret, fantastically odd shoes, and always something that has a bird on it!
