I Love Yarn Day!

I Love Yarn Day is coming up!  October 11, 2013

Last year, I designed the Icy Day Cowl for the event... and this year it's the new I Love Bruges Crochet Bracelet! 

Get the free pattern for the I Love Bruges Bracelet here.

Remember, Bruges Lace is a Crochet technique that uses basic crochet stitches with no special tools.

When this elegant little introduction whets your appetite to do more Bruges Lace, Find my how-to book with 8 Bruges patterns HERE.  At AnnieCatalog.com TODAY it is on sale for $6.95

On the right, is last year's pattern, the Icy Day Cowl.

Wintergreen Cowl CAL

Say that three times fast! Now that everyone had so much fun crocheting the Saturday Beret CAL, it's been proposed in the Ravelry group that the next CAL could be the Wintergreen CAL!  Check out this thread on Ravelry if you want to join in.

Here's the link to buy the pattern from Interweave if you don't already have it.  It comes with 3 other beautiful winter themed patterns in a booklet called "A Snowflake Story".

Review Learn Bruges Lace, Enter to win

If you have any kind words to say about my crochet book Learn Bruges Lace would you please say them on an Amazon review? While I’m a junkie for kind words, I’m really asking because it helps consumers find the book and order with confidence to have some reviews to look at.
Anyone who gives a kind review on Amazon, come back here and let me know and you will be ENTERED to win a prize… (I don’t know what yet… what would you like? yarn? books? patterns? tools?)

 Entries will be taken until January 2nd, 2013, midnight, EST. Anyone can enter, but if someone from outside of the US and Canada wins, your prize will have to be digital in nature, rather than something that has to be shipped. YOU MUST: Post a comment on this post or on my Ravelry group  with your first name, last initial and a location to help identify you from others. You may also offer what type of prize you would like to win from the suggestions above, I'll see if I can accommodate. But you can only enter one Review on Amazon, so you'll only be entered to win one time.

Here’s the link to the Amazon Page:

The Winner will be announced on January 3, 2013. The winner will need to contact me at Ellen@GoCrochet.com by January 7, 2013 with your email and shipping address. 
This is my Christmas wish! Thanks for participating.
