We are all geared up for the launch of the website tonight! Join us around midnight for our big sale and contests, detailed below.

A note for our returning customers: If you have earned a frequent customer discount, you will continue to receive it on our webstore after the opening sale!

Our opening sale runs from Sunday, July  4th to Wednesday, July 7th, with 25% off everything in the shop! We’ll have the Hanks line of yarn, hand-dyed by Lorena, in lace, sock, sport, and worsted weights, along with our lovely goat’s milk based soap. We also welcome the return of Sock Bones in all sizes from teeny to tremendous.

There will be free shipping on orders of more than $50, and contests as well: The first person to spend $100 (pre-tax and post-discount) on Sunday will receive two skeins of organic worsted weight yarn dyed in the Hanks colorway of his or her choice; the first  person to spend $100 on Tuesday will receive a $50 gift certificate.  Stop on by www.hanksyarn.com over your long weekend and see what we have to offer!
