Early-bird ticket-holders contest!

With all the excitement around here about the great prizes that are going to be given away at the after-party, we thought it would be fun to give out a prize BEFORE the event even starts on September 21! And what better way to reward all of you quick-on-the-button-early-bird-ticket-holders than with a contest for having your tickets early for the event?

Here's how it will work:

1. Get your ticket(s)! (Click the link to go to our ticket site) - make sure you buy your tickets BEFORE 11:59pm on Bank Holiday Monday, 26 August, 2013. CONGRATULATIONS! You are now automatically entered! (PS - if you had already ordered your tickets before we announced this contest, you are also already entered!)
2. Tell your friends! Let them know on Ravelry, or Twitter, or Facebook just how much fun you're planning on having!
3. If any of your friends buy tickets to the event, send us an email with your name, and your friends' names to greatlondonyarncrawl@gmail.com. You'll get an additional entry to the contest - simple as that!
4. On Tuesday, 27 August we will draw a name using a random number generator to decide a winner! The lucky winner will receive their prize at the start of the event on Saturday, 21, September.

So what's up for grabs? How about one of the ORIGINAL Soakboxes?

This was the Soakbox that started it all! It comes with their Heel cucumber foot cream and with a skein of Solemate yarn in the custom colourway Maven, a blend of Soak's beautiful teal, fuscia and mauve colours - hand-dyed by Beth Casey of Lorna's Laces. What makes this Soakbox even more rare is that ONLY 60 WERE EVER MADE! And how do you know? Because the skein of yarn is signed and numbered by Ms. Casey herself! Wow!

Maven: A trusted expert in a particular field, who seeks to pass knowledge onto others. Hmmm, kind of appropriate if you've been helping us spread the word about The Great London Yarn Crawl! ;)
