Silver Spun Giveaway! ~ Win 2 Full Skeins and a Pattern ~ Over $50 Value!!
The fabulous folks over at Feel Good Yarn are giving me some yarn to giveaway. Two full skeins of Silver Spun in fact!
This is the perfect amount to make the Textable Gloves, so I’m throwing the pattern in with the yarn. See below on how to enter the giveaway.
In case you haven’t read my previous post about Silver Spun let me inform you quickly that this yarn is made with REAL silver woven in. According to the Feel Good Yarn Company
The silver content in SilverSpun makes it therapeutic and conductive. Silver kills a number of bacteria, including those that cause odor, has excellent thermal properties, is nontoxic and is perfect for those suffering from diabetes, arthritis and sensitive skin. Silver is also an excellent conductive agent thus allowing smartphone or tablet touch screen use while wearing gloves knit from the yarn. The silver is permanently adhered to the yarn and will not wash out.
I love this yarn, it’s soft, incredibly stretchy and very easy to work with. Also did I mention when you make the gloves from the pattern I’m including in the giveaway, you can use your touchscreen devices because the silver is conductive? Check out the video review below to see the gloves working with my iPhone.
You can even use the leftover yarn to sew into your other gloves to make them textable as well.
The nitty gritty of what you will win.
2 full skeins (50 g/ 173 yards per skein) of LanaMundi Yarns Silver Spun that will be mailed to you. ($50 value)
1 Women’s Textable Gloves pdf crochet pattern that will be emailed to you. ($2.99 value)

I would make either a shawl, slipper or socks with it. When I buy yarn just because I like the yarn and not for a pattern, I usually have to look at it and feel it before I can decide, lol For example if it’s really soft yarn I will make something that would be next to the skin so the softness can be felt. Would love to see and feel this yarn, it sounds really interesting and exciting!!
