Want details about Silhoutte’s Black Friday sale? Here they are! And there is a secret…

November 23, 2011 by Vikram Goyal

Actually, there are two secrets. But first, the basic details.

Go to http://silhouetteamerica.com/shop.aspx on midnight 25th Nov 12:01 MST, and use the promo code BLACK to get 30% off any purchase (excluding CAMEO, download and gift cards).

You can also get the shapes for only 50 cents each! There are over 19000 designs to choose from!

The sale starts 12:01 MST midnight 25th Nov and ends Nov 28th.

Now to those secrets, or rather, the real goosip!

First, if you use the promo code GOSSIP instead of BLACK, you will get 40% off, not 30%. An extra 10% off for being loyal readers of CraftGossip.

Second, why is the CAMEO not in the promotion? Because it is hidden in a secret link! And we have that link. That link is

http://www.silhouetteamerica.com/blackFridayCameo.aspx.

You can only find the CAMEO through that link and it is on a very special price. Use the promo code GOSSIP to get the CAMEO at a very very special price (it is so special that we can’t reveal it). It is at such a special price that we recommend that you visit it as soon as the sale starts otherwise all the CAMEO’s at that sale price would be gone!

Remember, none of these links or promo codes are valid till the sale actually starts on the 25th of Nov (Friday) at 12:01 MST.

So good luck everyone! And thanks for reading CraftGossip! Happy ThanksGiving!

Knit and Felt Some Tabi Style Slippers

The felted slipper craze that began last year doesn’t seem like it’s fading away. The Sailor Slippers, often striped knit and felted slippers made with super bulky yarn, because the project of the moment late last year (check out more knit slipper options in this post all about sailor slippers) and they’re still consistently popular with knitters.

Which makes sense because they are fun and fast to knit, and seeing them go from this giant thing to something that actually fits a foot feels a little magical.

I have always loved felting (in fact my first book was about felting knitting) and it’s always fun for me to see people rediscover this technique.

If you’ve knit enough plain slippers to fit all the feet you know, maybe it’s time to stitch up some tabi style slippers instead.

Maymade Knits has designed these cute tabi ballerina slippers, made with bulky yarn and felted. They’re worked flat at first and then in rounds, and are available in 10 EU sizes (the Internet tells me add 31 to your American shoe size to get your EU size). The designer says the slippers are meant to have a close fit and you should choose a size a little smaller than your foot for the ideal fit.

The pattern includes a video tutorial along with the written pattern.

You can grab this pattern on Ravelry. The same designer has her own version of the striped felted slipper as well, called Sarah’s Striped Slippers. These are worked in super bulky yarn and have a contrasting foot and a striped body. These are knit flat and seamed and there are 7 size options available. Check that pattern out here if you’re looking for a more traditional slipper shape. They also look roomier so you can wear them with socks if you like.
