May 24 There’s to be another drawing! Make that six drawings for Aegeans. It doesn’t cost you anything, other than following the instructions, to enter the drawing. The numbers will be drawn and posted here on Monday, May 30th by 6:15 pm (Pacific Time). Posted below are pictures of the four Lilac, one Cherry, and one rare Apricot Aegeans for the drawings.
Each Aegean will have its own, separate drawing, with its own unique set of drawing numbers assigned.
You may enter for 1 Aegean. Decide which one you’d like most, or think will have the better odds.
If you’ve not participated in our spindle drawings before please carefully read and follow these instructions! If you’ve participated before, read them again.
Instructions must be followed to be eligible:
1) Email the following info to spin@yarntools.com Comments here or at FB will not count as entries.
2) In the Subject Heading write the name of the Aegean you’re entering for
Example: ALilac A204
DO NOT leave the subject heading blank – emails without the spindle number will be deleted without being opened.
3) In the body of the email:

Entering the spindle number twice – once in the subject line & again in the body – verifies that it is indeed the one you’re entering for.

Lilac A202
Lilac A204
Apricot A210 It’s not often that Ed gets his hands on lovely Apricot!
Cherry A213 ($56 + S&H)
There’s a built in game with this Cherry Aegean: Those three notes are the beginning of a tune! What tune do those 3 notes represent?
Hint 1: They are the first three of a beloved song by a composer during a visit to the USA. Hint 2: It’s taken from the 2nd movement. As a young child taking piano lessons I learned it in a simpler key than originally written by the composer.
If you guess the tune correctly (in your email submission) you will be assigned 2 numbers to increase your odds in the drawing!
