the handmade artists and a sweet giveaway...

The Handmade Market is this Saturday @ the Beat Coffee House in Uptown (MPLS)
9am-5pm
I'm very excited to meet all of the wonderful artists.

Unfortunately, Miche Mailloux and Waist2Wrist won't be able to show at the market, but you should check out their work. There will also be a couple more artists who are not mentioned here. It will probably be a rainy fall day...perfect weather for a good hot coffee.

And now for a giveaway!!
A handknit hat in your color/style choice could be yours.
All you have to do is share the event on your facebook page, post it on your blog, tweet about it, post a myspace bulletin, etc about the Handmade Market and the give away. (if you have a private profile, you will have to add me so that i can see it).
Then come back to this blog post, and add a comment with the link to where you posted it and your email.
On Friday evening, I will pick a winner (using a random number generator).

(since the hat will be knit specifically for you, it will take approximately 1-2 weeks to get it to you)
Here are some links for you to post:

Thanks everyone!
