So if you live near one of these stores please send me a photo of you in front my products. It would be such a thrill for me to see!! My email addy is over there in the sidebar (replace the appropriate words with the appropriate symbols) - or if you are on Facebook you can post them over on The Crochet Dude page!
And if you don't live near one of these Michaels stores I believe that the products are set to be there sometime late summer early fall. Not sure yet. I'll see what I can find out.
PS: I have no control over where and when these products are placed. Michael's made this decision (and one that I am VERY happy and grateful for) - but if your local Michael's isn't on the list for this first run I apologize. As more places make the products available I will be sure to list them here!
Hopefully your products will make up to Canada

You know, I have no idea that status of international placement Cora. I think I'll email someone to find out!

Congrats, Drew! Can't wait until the products are in my local Michaels!

Darn it, I got my hopes up. No Florida stores yet! I'll keep checking and let you know the minute I see them here.

Soon, very soon! You did say you wanted to take a roadtrip to Atlanta...

Holy cow the Michael's in Dallas rarely has the new stuff first!!! I'll be there with my camera!!! HEHEHEEHE NOW I know why I didn't get any yarn at Hobby Lobby last night, I was waiting for your line to come out!
Reply to this
Woohoo! I sure wish Houston had the new stuff too!! Can't wait to see your pics!

The Westgate store in San Jose is about 2 miles from where I'm sitting right now at work! I'll go check it out - I need to go to Michaels anyway this weekend.
Reply to this
That's great! We always need to go to Michaels for something, right?
Reply to this
Aw man! The one store in my state that's listed is like 5 hours away
Reply to this
We don't have a Michaels in North Dakota, but when we go down to Colorado I often visit the one in Highlands Ranch. I love their stores so it will be exciting to see your products there!
Blessings,
Beth

Of course, Florida is not on the list. Humph!

Good for you, Drew--that's GREAT news! I'm sure it will fly off the shelves!

I was reading Laurie P.'s blog, and she boasted about you and your line of crochet accessories. Congratulations! I live in the Chicago area, so it looks like I'll have a while to wait, but that's okay. Do you have items that a knitter can enjoy? And since I've never commented here before, I must tell you that you have two great looking cats. Congrats again.

Fantastic! But Houston should have had it first and earlier than everybody else! Can't wait to see it. I'll be in Dallas in June. Maybe I can make a trip by the Dallas store.

Sorely disappointed not to see any Chicago stores.

Drew, I am thrilled for you! Congratulations and I hope you sell tons so they roll it out chain-wide!
Reply to this
I saw your stuff in the Michael's in San Jose last night! Dude, they cleared out all the Lion Brand tools to put YOUR stuff in. Congratulations!

Drew, I've just seen a sample of your crochet line on Crazy Aunt Purl's site. How do I get wholesale information for my yarn shop? Thanks!

Hi Dez! The products are available via your usual distributors like Checkers. Whichever one you use to get your hooks from will have the products in their catalog.

Saw it at westgate this morning! Sadly, no photo, but awesome to see it. Has awesome placement in the needle arts area. Now if we could just get that stuff out of the back corner...
