Yarn Discovery Tour
Prize Winners Named
A total of 17 prize winners have been selected following the conclusion of Northeast Ohio’s 4th Annual “Shop Hop.”
Elaine McRee won the Grand Prize Basket filled with hundreds of dollars worth of yarns and needlework accessories after her name was drawn at random from those who had their passports stamped at all 14 shops on the tour.
Kathy Nehrenz earned the Awesome Prize Basket for having her name drawn from those who visited 10 shops, and Michelle Eggett won the Cool Prize Basket from those who visited five shops.
Names of the winners of the prize baskets presented by each of the 14 participating shops are listed below, and the list of this year’s sponsors who contributed merchandise for the prize baskets is shown below and to the left.
Initial plans are already being discussed for the 5th Annual Yarn Discovery Tour in the Fall of 2012, and this website will be updated as dates and other details are finalized.
