FYI: Noro "Maiko" 50% off

#1

For those of us who love a sale, here is a SALE! I had purchased some hanks of [B]NORO Maiko[/B] (dk) at our LYS sale bin, but they didn’t have as much as I would like. So I ventured into WEBS online, and they are offering all of the colors at half price! Reg $10.95 (ouch) for $5.49 (nice!) and with a generous 132 yds per hank!

The [B]Maiko[/B] [U]doesn’t stripe[/U] like most Noro’s, nor does it have a lot of crazy colors, like most Noro’s. It is kind tweedy-esque! It goes well with the new Noro Retro, that has subtle colorwaves in the same color.

[B]Maiko[/B] is 35% Wool/30% Kid Mohair/35% Silk. Sweet! Check out the 13 colors available!

Here is a swatch of Maiko in my color:

Uh oh. I’m in trouble. Again.

Hmmm… must check my Megamillions ticket - would love to win and take a little ride to Webs and BUY OUT THE STORE!!

Shipping charge too high for Colorado…

#5

Shipping is always a bugger, but for now, they don’t charge sales tax and I save 9.3% here in my county, and that is a huge offset! Their shipping to me is less than my county sales tax. :happydance:

And then you factor in the sale prices (40-50% off!);
plus the 25% discounts they offer on full price yarns. You can’t beat it!

I did a sort of faux order for my favourite wool yarn (currently) but they would have charged $9+ in shipping to Colorado (not to Canada where I currently am…moving at the end of summer, eh???) I wish they had the “spend $50 and get free shipping” like Knitpicks does. :frowning:
