Ok, this is a cool program. Since I am on a yarn buying diet (aka fast aka starvation aka DO NOT BUY MORE YARN!), I’m really excited about this! For 2008, Sonny & Shear just started a new program called Bust Your Stash. For every two pounds of yarn you use (what’s that in grams?), you’ll earn a 10% coupon to use at their store. Just send them the ball bands from the yarn you used up and there’s no limit to the number of coupons you can earn. How cool is that!

I’ve been stash busting since January and luckily, I save my ball bands so I am soooo cashing in on this one. :) I wonder when the coupons expire though, because technically I’m not allowing myself to buy more yarn till July…but still, what a great idea!

  1. that is a really great idea! 450 grams is 16 oz!

  2. Thanks! I don’t know my conversions and always have to google them. :D

  3. Wow, that is a really neat program!

  4. Isn’t it? :) I posted a question to Kris on the Sonny & Shear group on Ravelry, asking if the coupons expire.

    Also, I don’t know why but your comments get caught in my spam trap in WordPress! :( I always have to go in and rescue them, lol.

  5. Hi… sorry to butt in but I know the answer to your question. I’m Kris and I own Sonny & Shear. Our coupons expire in 12 to 18 months. So if you’re on a yarn diet until July 2008 you should be fine.

    Hope that helps!

  6. Hi Kris! :) Thanks for letting me know–now I’m even more excited about the program!
