Small Business Saturday & A Giveaway!


Chris and I ventured out on Saturday to shop small.  This year, more than ever, the small businesses in our area need some post-Sandy support.  I wanted some yarn for project, so I called a business near us that I thought would carry some.  Even though they didn't, they referred me to another small business nearby that did, which I thought was just lovely.

They lead me to: The Knitting Store.


It was a small store, with a big table smack in the middle of it with a few ladies just knitting, crocheting, and chit-chatting away (at this point, Chris chose to wait in the car). They looked like they were having the best time!  There were a few awesome sales going on, so I bought a few skeins of yarn that they kindly rolled into balls for me while I waited.

I'm made on a circle-scarf (or snood, if you're fancy)... and its the next Cat Got Dressed Giveaway!




The rules:
1. Peruse the blog and leave a comment below letting me know what your favorite handmade project was, along with your name and email address.

2. For extra entries, leave a separate comment letting me know you've done any of below:
     - Go to Cat Got Dressed's facebook page and throw me a like!
     - Follow me on twitter.
     - Follow me on instagram.


The giveaway is open until December 3rd - this could be the perfect holiday gift for you or someone just as awesome as you.

Good luck!

Cat

  4. I love most everything you do, but one of your projects that I loved the most were your blankets made from tee shirts from Camp DeBaun. Although I never went there, there is definitely a sentimental feeling for the place from a lot of Oceansiders, and this is a great way to preserve those memories!

  7. What a great giveaway. It would make a lovely gift if I didn't want to keep it for myself hehe.
    There are so many great projects to choose from, but I really love the black lace shift with pockets. All dresses should have pockets! I was also touched by your baby blanket project- so sweet! I wish I could sew or knit (it's on my bucket list!)
