In January 2014 the "Join the Scavenger Hunt" was created in the SPS Team Forum on Etsy. The rules of the game are simple : you must find an item that answers the clue given by the person above you in the thread. Once you have posted an item (not from your own shop), post a new clue for the next person to find.
Since the beginning of the Scavenger Hunt, we have given and answered over 660 clues!! And we're still counting!
Here is a friendly and non-exhaustive recap of
the first 500 clues on the SPST Scavenger Hunt!

My name is Natalie. I am a French-Canadian gal, but I live in South Korea. My passion is called "Hanji" : sumptuous Korean paper made of mulberry pulp. Hanji has been used for a thousand years in Korea to create decorative or ceremonial objects. For me, it is essential to offer useful and practical objects, that can enjoyed on a daily basis. Tissue cases, pen holders, jewelry, fridge magnets, hair accessories: let the beauty and unique character of Hanji paper make our everyday life objects irresistible!

Hi I'm Amy. In my shop I offer a variety of crocheted items and occasionally I list vintage crochet & knitting pattern books. I enjoy working on custom orders. My customers often come up with the best creative ideas; and sometimes offer me the challenge of creating something I've never done before. It’s always satisfying to take a piece of yarn and create something new from it.
