Recently, I turned an old entertainment center into my yarn shelf. After painting it, I removed all of my yarn from the cubbie shelves I had them in, and replaced those shelves with my new yarn shelf… a yarn center? Hehe. My yarn is mostly organized by brand, with a miscellaneous shelf of each weight so as I was going through my worsted weight yarn shelf, I came across 3 skeins of Stylecraft Special Aran yarn that I had ordered from LoveCrafts back in October of 2019 to try out. Even though I ordered it with the intention of making a hat and cowl, it just never happened, and the yarn has just been sitting on my shelf.
I set these 3 skeins aside, and decided to put together this fun collection of patterns that used Stylecraft Special Aran, and run a giveaway (at the bottom of this post).
If you’re interested in purchasing this yarn, you can order it from the LoveCrafts site. I enjoy shopping here because they have a huge variety of yarns, fast shipping (and free if you spend the magic number), and if you have any questions, customer service responds fairly quickly. You can also purchase crochet (and knit) patterns directly from their site as well from your favorite indie designers, like me! Check out my EyeLoveKnots LoveCrafts crochet pattern shop.

On to the Giveaway!
One winner will receive 3 skeins of Stylecraft Aran Yarn in the Parchment colorway from me!
If you’re interested in purchasing this yarn, you can order it from the LoveCrafts site.
This yarn is 214 yards of worsted weight (#4), and the fiber content is 100% Acrylic.
Special Note: I have two cats. You may find cat hairs on the yarn you receive – it’s hard to avoid.
International Makers: I always like to include everyone! If you are outside the US, you can still enter to win, but you will receive a digital gift from me (valued at $8 equal to roughly the same price for shipping of a priority flat rate envelope).
I included several ways to enter (through the Rafflecopter below). To be entered in the giveaway, you only need to complete one task, but the more you do, the better your chances. Some of them you can come back and do again once a day! Last time to enter will be Sunday 11/07/21 at 11:59pm EST.
Must be 18 years or older to enter. Open to all countries. Void where prohibited. Winner has 48 hours to respond to email notification, or another winner will be chosen. Alexandra (that’s me!) of EyeLoveKnots is responsible for fulfilling remaining prizes.
