2016 NatCroMo Blog Tour
Invitation
Crochet business owners, you are invited to provide one of our daily giveaways for Crochetville’s fourth annual blog tour in March 2016 in honor of National Crochet Month.
In the past, we have exclusively focused on crochet designers. We are excited to expand the blog tour quite a bit for 2016. Every day of March 2016, the blog tour will feature individual posts promoting:
- 3 crochet designers
- 1 crochet-friendly LYS
- 1 yarn company
- 1 daily giveaway
Giveaway Requirements
- You may donate an item with a minimum retail value of $25.
- Crochetville will create a Rafflecopter giveaway for each day of March 2016. Winners will be selected by random drawing.
- You will be responsible for mailing the prize to the winner within two weeks of Crochetville providing you with the confirmed winner’s mailing address.
- For physical items, you may limit shipping availability to the countries of your choice. However, we have blog tour visitors from around the world. Visitors whose countries are not eligible may express their disappointment online, so be prepared for this possibility. (We will remove any comments that are disrespectful, contain profanity, hate speech, etc.)
- You will need to submit a photo and description of your giveaway to us on or before February 15, 2016.
