STITCHES East: Sponsor Giveaway Announcement

September 24, 2014 by AllFreeCrochet

stitches-eastHave you ever attended a STITCHES show? Every year, our friends at XRX host the largest knit and crochet show ever called STITCHES; it’s truly a fiber experience like none other. To make it easy for fiber enthusiasts to attend, there are actually four different shows per year (East, West, Midwest, and South) which allows those all over the country to attend based on geographical location. We’ve been lucky to attend a few shows ourselves over the years. Read about our experience hand dying yarn here at Stitches Midwest last year. Plus, one of our editors took a class from the one and only Drew Emborsky (aka The Crochet Dude), and we even attended the 2013 Stitches Midwest Fashion Show!

Stephen-WestEach show is jam-packed with classes, free demonstrations, and more. If you’re lucky enough to attend STITCHES East 2014 (October 10-12 in Hartford, CT), be sure to spend some time at the Stitches Market where you will find vendors from all over the United States (and around the world) displaying the latest yarns and gadgets; it’s truly a unique shopping experience. Be sure to also attend the STITCHES fashion show, where you will enjoy professional models strutting their stuff down the catwalk modeling the most impressive and stylish knit designs you’ll ever see.

If that’s not reason enough to attend, then STITCHES East and their Sponsors are excited to announce one more reason to attend this year’s Stitches East show. They are offering a HUGE giveaway worth $4,200 that YOU could win!  If you are the lucky winner, then simply be at the STITCHES East 2014 Market on Oct. 11th!
