Unhappy Help really needed ASAP

Hello, I have an 8week old Old English Sheepdog puppy. Toilet training is going really well, she is good at that and also being left in the kitchen at night. The one thing we really do have a problem with though is puppy nipping, She keeps going for our hand and clothes- and I just can not seem to stop her from doing it. I will be playing with a toy with her and she will go for my hands- I yelp really loud and high but doesn't seem to do anything, it just makes her do it even more. Same as when she grabs our clothes- we yelp and still nothing, she just growls and starts trying to play tug of war. Can anyone please give me any advise on what we can do to stop her from doing this?
Many thanks

You could hold a small toy or a treat in a clenched fist, if she tries biting you to get it say no and dont give in, once she stops reward her, she will soon learn that biting is not the answer to getting what she wants, she may learn to play nicely then.
