You may be asking:


1. What is a Passport?

A Passport is simply a brochure that includes all the information about each participating shop during the Crawl; each shop’s address, phone number and official hours during the Crawl. Essentially, with the Passport you have all the Crawl’s information at your fingertips and a place to collect stamps from each shop you visit.

At the end of the Crawl the passport serves as your ticket for a Grand Prize drawing, levels to be determined by the number of shops you have visited!!

2. Why do I need a Passport?

You will need to get your Passport stamped in each shop you visit, to take advantage of the Grand Prize opportunity. Only “Crawlers” with Passports will be eligible to win one of these fantastic prizes at each of the shops! In addition, some shops are offering some extra special gifts and discounts exclusively to those who present their Passports!

3. What should I do with my Passport?

Bring your Passport with you during the Crawl and have it stamped at each of the shops you visit. At the conclusion of your crawl, drop it off or mail it to the shop, whose Prize Basket you would like to be entered in the drawing.You will have until close of business Friday, October 15th to get your Passport to the shop. The winning tickets will be pulled at closing time on that day, so don’t miss out! The lucky winners will be notified by phone. Winners will be posted on the Crawl’s website and Facebook page. Eligible Passports for the SUPER GRAND PRIZE WALLETS, will be forwarded for that drawing by the shop owners.

4. How do I get my Passport?

Passports will be available at any of the participating local yarn shops, or here on the website for printing at home.

5. Do I HAVE to have a Passport to participate in the Crawl?

No, all are welcome! But if you don’t have a Passport, you will miss out on some fabulous prizes, and other fun discounts and giveaways that may be offered exclusively to those “crawlers” who present their Passports!! Special offers are at the discretion of each participating shop.
