Thanksgiving/Holiday Sale

I apologize for the long silence. D#1 did compete in the National Karate Tournament this July. She lost by one point in the first round & was eliminated. It's a great learning experience.

Just want to thank everyone for your support & to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. I updated some modules to the website & subsequently some functions are broken.

All items are 25% off and the sale will go on till Dec 31, 2012. Please email me at whirlexpo@gmail.com and let me know what you want. I'll send out an adjusted invoice. Items totaling less than 15 oz will be shipped first class.

Have a great Thanksgiving & safe travels.

ETA - I posted pictures of hand knitted ruffle scarves on Pinterest
(https://pinterest.com/whirlexpo/hand-knitted-scarves/). Items on Pinterest are 25% off too.

FYI

Just a shot post to let everyone know that the sale is still going on. I've raised 17% of the fund needed to take my daughters for their karate competition.
Thank you for your support.

Sneak Peek - Handspun yarn from personal stash

Here's a sneak peek of handspun yarn(from my personal stash) that I will be listing next. I rather someone gets to enjoy the yarn while I'm raising fund for my kids karate than for them to sit in the plastic tub, not being loved. They are mainly fingering/sock and lace weight yarn. 

 

 

 

Sneak Peek - Hand woven scarves

 Just finished taking pictures of the scarves. Here are a sample of the 3 scarves

 

 

Sale to raise fund - 25% off

I'm having a sale to raise fund to take my kids for the 2012 USA Karate National Championship. Both have competed locally. #1 will test for black belt end of June and  #2 just tested for brown belt.  Hope this will be a great learning experience for them.
All items are on sale till enough fund has been raised. I have a couple of hand woven scarves and yarn that I'll add to the site soon. Shipping quote/calculator is fixed and usable now. Free domestic shipping for orders of more than $100 still apply (50% off shipping for international orders). Have a great Memorial weekend and Happy Summer.
 
Thank you for your support.
 
ETA - Discount should be applied upon checkout. If there's any problem with checkout/shipping cost, please feel free to contact me.

Popcorn, The Cat

 Marianne from Wille Works emailed me pictures of Popcorn. It's a knitted cat, made from my handspun
.
Popcorn is now in Marianne's Etsy shop or you can read more about him on her blog.

Domestic Shipping

I have set domestic shipping to Priority Mail so that checkout can be as seamless as possible. The first two skeins of yarn will be shipped First Class & 3 or more skeins of yarn ordered on same day will be shipped PRIORITY WITH DELIVERY CONFIRMATION. I will refund any overage for first class shipping. Thank you.

Update on broken shipping quote/checkout

I have filed a bug report with the Drupal/Ubercart community. Looks like I'm not the only dealing with it. I will update when I learn more. Again, if you are placing an order, please email me at whirlexpo@gmail.com or use the contact us link above. I will then email you an invoice via Paypal. Thank you for your patience.
