Maisie's Mystery Mailings: A seasonal subscription

 

Welcome to the debut of the Maisie's Mystery Mailings

After years of rumination, discussion, and planning. . . it's finally happening. Our new seasonal subscription series is a reality. In a nutshell: We hand pick great stuff and ship it out 4x a year.

Ooooooohhhh! Pretty things automatically arrive on  my doorstep! How exciting!!


We love a good mystery so of course its a surprise. If you like our shop and what we stock you'll enjoy our mystery parcels.



Yes, a bit of trust is involved but that's part of the fun. Hints will undoubtedly surface because Kim frankly has hard time keeping secrets!


Love getting mail? Enjoy surprises and mysteries? You trust us? Then sign on up!


The debut mailing is a knit theme....but future mailings will expand to include options (books, gifts, kids). This first mailing we want to test the waters, get the kinks out. Never fear....there's future plans with something for everyone. Someone (ahem....Kim) is chomping at the bit to go crazy and have a gazillion options....but practicality means success hence this first mailing is knit-centric.



Nitty-gritty Details

**Special Promo: Subscribe to all 4 mailings & your final box receives a $20 discount as our thank you for joining in the fun.  We bill as we go. Subscribing now pops you into queue for future mailings-which are first come first serve re: color choice. A week prior to shipping we email an invoice. You can pay it online, or call us with your cc#. Once paid, your box is prepped, packed and then shipped out.




Autumn 2015 Mailing Hints

This inaugural Autumn box will make a nice dent in your holiday gift-making list. Could be an early holiday present special treat just for you. Maybe you have a knitterly loved one or friend....well "bob's your uncle" and you're holiday shopping is done!

It's not super-duper hard to make and you'll learn a few new techniques and play with variety of  yarns. If you live nearby, pop into our free drop-in sessions Sun & Mon 2-4pm for help and enthusiastic encouragement. 




Colors are first come and we could run out so don't delay. At checkout pick a color option: neutral, cools, warm or...."surprise me" to let us choose for the full-on mystery experience. Need needles or notions? Select to add to your cart what's needed. Hit buy then sit back and eagerly await for Oct mailings to arrive. *include a note at checkout if prefer in-store pickup. we'll credit you the shipping instead*

"What's specifically in the mailing?" you ask. Can't tell you that....it's a surprise!!



 Well.....okay....just a few hints.....to tempt you.....


Yarns (notice plural...) for 2 projects and a pattern booklet (with a 7  total patterns)...maybe some extra pattern freebies throw in for good measure. It comes with a write up (tips, tricks, links or other useful bits to make things go smoothly).

Kim's dying to show sneak peeks of the colors but is bound by a Confidentiality Agreement of Surprise .... penalties are stiff: she must focus to finish a project before casting on a new one. But.....secrets are not her forte.....so future spoilers may appear....just sayin'.....


Deadline: Sep 25th cut off date to be in Oct 1st  Mystery Mailing

Watch the blog to see the Box Reveal post sometime in mid-Oct. You'll see details and FO's (well....that's the plan if Kim can focus long enough to finish the shop samples....) We'll have a buy option post-reveal for those regretting missing out of the fun (or those who prefer a procrastination route.....just like one Sister who shall remain nameless.... but first name starts with a K).
