Happy, Little Surprises

“When you come out of a storm you won’t be the same person that walked in. That’s what the storm is all about.” — Haruki Murakami

Dear One,

I have a confession to make. I am not necessarily good at being surprised. I tend to over-react and then it takes me ages to calm down and enjoy whatever the surprising thing was. I don't know why you need to know this about me...unless you were thinking of throwing one of those parties where people leap out from behind furniture...but it leads me to my topic.


Because of my issues with big surprises, we lean toward small, gentle surprises at Yarnology. Just in case. No one needs a huge rush of adrenaline at the yarn shop. We love it when you get excited about great yarn...but not so excited that your smart watch alarm goes off.

One of our favorite happy surprises is when a Fifth Friday pops up on the calendar. And, you guessed it, we have one at the end of May.


If you've not heard about Fifth Fridays at Yarnology, they're a chance to get a discount on whatever you can put into this lovely Yarnology Baggu Tote. Purchase your tote ahead of time...or buy it when you come in. And if you already own one, you're good to go!

As we started to get excited about the upcoming shenanigans on May 30, we also began to think about all of our fabulous friends who cannot get in to see us on a specific Friday. 


So, in the spirit of on-going happy surprises, we decided to extend the benefits of the bag throughout the coming summer months!


May 31 through Labor Day

Your Bag with Benefits just became more valuable. Definitely don't leave home without it! And, if you have a friend who would love the Yarnology Baggu Tote but doesn't know it (or would never treat themselves), think about giving the bag---and all it's on-going benefits---as a gift. Who wouldn't be delighted with that happy, little surprise?


Need to order online and want the same opportunity as the locals? Reply to any newsletter (or email info@yarnologymn.com) to ask for your personal code. Be sure to attach a selfie of you and your Yarnology Baggu Tote...or add a tote to your online order to get the discount on the other items.

I hope this week gives you a happy, little surprise or two. And, if you love big, loud surprises, I wish you one of those! Either way, enjoy the week, treasure the holiday weekend (if you're in the US), and I hope to see you soon.


Cheers,

Gaby
