Free shipping to the US. This comes from a smoke-free / pet-free home. Feel free to ask any questions. I welcome your comments as well :) Please note that you can combine colors, you don’t have to get all the yards you win in one color. I tried to take pictures of the actual gimp, but the colors came out slightly different than they actually look, so I made a chart on my computer with exact colors (except I couldn’t make the clear colors look clear, so just try to imagine those colors in clear). I will also send you instructions of how to make a couple projects. Also, check out my other auction with cool colored gimp! Good luck and happy bidding!

Check out my comments on my Gimp in Cool Colors auction! I've listed some of the projects and techniques that I will send instructions for to the winner. They're the same for this auction!

I've been thinking, and I've decided that I will include a keychain that I made of gimp as a bonus! It might give you an idea. Watch for more updates!

The amount of yards you'd get (in the description) is the minimum. I think I'll add a bonus for sure, how much depends on the bid!

I will give instructions for thirteen techniques to the winner. I found a couple of projects as well! Some of the techniques are: starter stitch, round stitch, square stitch, loop stitch, mixed stitch zipper pull, curlz, ez gimper stitch, classic lanyard stitch, cobra stitch, chinese staircase, 6 end box stitch, eight end box stitch, six end twist, bracelet wrap, as well as more!

Thanks. The only way I could get this back when I was in eighth grade was to buy it from a teacher who would sell it for $0.75 a yard. And that was like 4, maybe five years back. LOL!

Oh, and here's a hint for all you gimpers out there: instead of tying the ends together, I just cut the ends and take a match and carefully melt the ends together. The gimp doesn't burn in the process, just sort of glues together without any glue (and is dry in like 2 seconds). This makes your project look way neater, too!
