Your local yarn stores appreciate your business, and we want to thank you by sponsoring a shop hop to help us get to know each other better.

Visit each participating shop, get your passport stamped, and if you visit all of the participating shops during the Peninsula to Pier Local Yarn Shop Hop, you can enter to win a fabulous prize!

WHO: Outstanding Local Yarn Shops in the Peninsula and Southern Bay Area.

WHERE: From San Mateo to Carmel.

WHEN: Friday, September 25 through Sunday, September 27, 2009. All shops will be open Friday 10am to 7pm, Saturday and Sunday 10am to 6pm.

WHAT: A 3-day yarn crawl with your friends to enjoy your LYS community.

HOW: Pick up your map and P2P Shop Hop Passport at any participating shop, and get the passport stamped by each shop during the Shop Hop weekend.

WHY:

1. Get stamps from all of the shops and you could win a gift certificate from the participating LYS of your choice!
2. New theme this year! Each shop will have a free pattern for a "quilt" block. Collect them all to make a throw.
3. Get inspired and find out more about the arts of knitting & crocheting.
4. Take a mini-vacation with your best friends and shop for yarn!

For all of the rules, see the Details page. Go to the Shops page to see which shops are participating and the hours they will be open Shop Hop weekend.
