Happy Holidays! Free Patterns and Sales From Around the Web

I spent about a six weeks this summer thinking about crocheting shoes and gathering information, so I was excited to see the announcement for a free E-Book How to Crochet Socks and Slippers: Free Patterns for Crochet Slippers and Socks from Crochet Me (Interweave).

They’re

 also having a sale on some issues of Interweave Crochet and have a 30% off code SNOW30.

And this may be old news to some, but I just found out that Leisure Arts has a Free Pattern Friday for Crochet.
I don’t have direct link. http://www.leisurearts.com
They’re also holding a warehouse sale.

Gift-A-Long 2013

I’m participating in Gift-A-Long, a magnificent, multi-designer promotion on Ravelry.   All my patterns on Ravelry are 25% off from November 1 to 15 2013, to assist with, and encourage your gift making.  Here’s a sample of some included patterns; you can see them all in my Ravelry store.

The event includes many prizes for those who create and share  their creations made from one of the Gift-A-Long designers’ patterns on Ravelry.

Over 170 independent designers on Ravelry united to create this Gift-A-Long of epic proportions. There are nearly 3,000 patterns from which to choose.  You can see all the designers participating in the List of Participating Patterns (in the Gift-A-Long Group), and we have several Pinterest boards to showcase all the patterns too.

 Along with the discount promotion, we are also hosting several KAL/CALs in the Ravelry Indie Design Gift A-Long Group. The KAL/CALs run from Nov 1st through Dec 31st, with lots of chances to win prizes.
