Sponsor Dropped Stitches through Barter or Cash (September)

Dropped Stitches is looking for September sponsors!

This is a great way to advertise your etsy shop, new blog, or other site.

I currently have over 1200 subscribers between Google Reader, Feed Burner, and Blog Lovin'.

On Twitter, I have 1,050 subscribers and am adding more daily. My personal Facebook page reaches 493 people and my new blog fan page has 63 followers (all posts are published to both pages). I am a member of Triberr, and through my tribes my tweets reach 54,750 people. Dropped Stitches had 5500 pageviews last month with approximately 2400 unique page views, which was up 18% from last month.

I am offering sponsorship opportunities by either buying a slot through Paypal or to sponsors of giveaways on the blog. Adds are 150x75 pixels and will be placed in the order payment is received. They will be located in the top left sidebar. You may order multiple months if you desire. Each sponsor will get a short write up on the blog dispersed throughout the month in the order in which payment was received; giveaway sponsors will have their write-up on the giveaway post.

Giveaway sponsors: You item must be valued at least $10. I would like to do a giveaway each Wednesday; I am focusing on products that will pamper moms and other women (creams, soaps, jewelry, candles, etc.). If your item is over ten dollars your add will remain on the blog longer, each $10 will earn 1 month of ad space. I use Rafflecoptor for giveaways.

More Sponsor Love: Alaskan Purl

Alaskan Purl is a blog that I have been reading for a LONG time because it is such a great blog. If you are a knitter, you HAVE to read and subscribe to this blog (just look at that hat; do I really need to say more?). Allison's blog is just quality all knitting, all the time. Ah-Mazing knitting and all that stuff knitters love - talk about yarn, patterns, reviews of patterns from other sites, and giveaways!

Also, I just want to say that Alaskan Purl is one of those sites that when I was a greenhorn blogger I looked at and thought to myself, "Gee, my blog looks suckish compared to this!" It is really a beautifully designed blog as well.

So, there you go. I love this blog. I want all of you knitters to visit it and subscribe. If it isn't already, it Will become one of your favorites. It's one of mine.

Sponsor Love and Thanks!

I'd like to thank my two new sponsors. Make sure you check out their wonderful blogs

Kendra Kantor is an art journalist who does amazing work. My favorite posts are the Color Inspirations, where she takes gorgeous photos and pulls the predominate colors out of them; great for artists, quilters, knitters, home decor, and the list goes on. When I saw her page initially, I told her that we have similar aesthetic tastes, so if you like this blog, you're going to find a new one to like in Like A Bird.

Kamika Krafts is one of the coolest fashion blogs I've run into in a long time (come on, look at her button - she's cool!). She is starting her own journal project (but it's a bit different than Sandra's!) and has many other art journal projects from the past, gives some great styling advice(love), features cool music (love), photography (which is great and fun), and tutorials (yes, tutorials!). She's also got a great Flickr photostream and fun Tweets, but to read those, you have to check out her cool page!

Thanks, Jenna for including my Linus the Cat card in your newest etsy treasury, For Ohio, By Ohio, From Ohio! I've talked about Jenna's cool jewelry on here before - we actually own a guitar string bracelet that rotates between my daughter and teenage guitar playing son (it is really so beautiful!). You aren't going to have to sell a kidney to afford her pieces, so please, help out a friend of mine and check out her etsy store!

And that reminds me! I have some new cards in the store including a really cool snowman and snowy garden angel - Christmas is around the bend - think about it!

Sponsor Love: Knot-Cha-Chá!™

I have my first sponsor and I am so excited to introduce you to her!

I've been reading Sharon's blog, Knot-Cha-Chá!™ for a long time and it has become one of the required stops on my blog list. Sharon is "a designer/maker, teacher, writer and spinner of yarns with a love of color, texture, and simplicity of line." Her articles on spinning (and the beautiful results) have made me want to learn to spin and her featured knitting is beautiful. In addition, she writes fun articles about her life and adventures and includes tutorials for some really beautiful projects (I Love the Understatement Necklace).

Her Etsy store, Knot-Cha-Chá!™ is full of gorgeous knitted and crocheted confections like this merino wool scarf (that I have been coveting) in a lacy ribbed pattern. Buy it for me, won't you?

She also makes hats, bracelets, wraps, cowls, and many other delicious handmade accessories. Be sure to check them out!

Thanks, Sharon, for being my first sponsor!
