Let's have some fun at Stitches West 2018!  

Are you attending this year's Stitches West event in Santa Clara, February 22nd to 25th? 

We're still snowed in up here in Idaho, so we have come up with a fun way to participate since we can't be there with a booth. 

This year we're running a "Virtual Contest" where you can win prizes while having fun at Stitches!  

We have incredible prizes and it's really easy to enter and participate!  

First, be sure to visit the Skacel Booth (309) and pick up a free button to wear during the event and include in your photos! 

Then snap some selfies and start earning points toward a prize!  

Official Rules

Contest is from Friday 2/23/2018 to Sunday 2/25/2018 midnite

Take a selfie with our yarn suppliers and earn 20 points for each photo! 

Each post can be on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram—be sure to include #ILuvAlpacaDirect in the post and #Stitcheswest! 

Each post should include the button, and ideally you or the person with the button! 

• Skacel (Booth 309)—Easy since that’s where you pick up your button!
• Malabrigo (Booth 313)
• Universal Yarn (Booth 209)
• Baah Yarn (Booth 1540)
