Beloved S

You may be surprised to see that the “R” wasn’t next. I have three kids - Alice, Remington, and Melody - and I thought it was very clever that some people guessed that the “R” might be published next, but I actually publish based on what my testers are able to get completed. (Scroll down to find more details on how you can help with testing!)

Just like with the other letters in this series, Beloved S comes with the fully written pattern and charts for both colorwork techniques. You may notice in some of the photos that the mosaic version of these alphabet blankets is solid (meaning, you don’t see the interlocking mesh dots on that version so the solid areas are actually solid).

And, just like with the other Beloved Alphabet letters, you (my newsletter subscribers) get this 50% off code!

Testers Needed!

I have a wonderful group of testers and I am always nervous about adding more to the team but the truth is, if we want to see this Beloved Alphabet series published before the end of 2024 then I’ll need more crocheters.

Some of the letters are not available for testing because they’re already published or I have enough testers on that letter. But, if you’re interested in testing for me please hit reply and we’ll talk.

I’ll be interested in knowing how experienced you are, how well you can follow instructions, if you’re able to take nice photos, and whether you can meet the deadlines.

I usually get swamped when I put a call like this out there, so do be patient as I work through it all and respond. Also, please be prepared for the possibility that you aren’t a good fit for my team. I never want anyone to feel hurt by this process but this is the business that supports my family so I sometimes have to turn people away.

Ocean-themed promo ends Aug 15

I made this a long-lasting promo to make sure everyone had a chance. Business recommendations are always ‘create hype, make the promos quick, get people buying impulsively’ and I just don’t want to be that kind of person all the time.

So, this sale lasted a long time but it WILL end next week.

50% Newsletter Promo ends Aug 15

Good timing or bad timing to have both of those promotions end on the same day?

The next email I send will be to update you on the next design that will be 50% off. I haven’t yet decided which pattern it will be. But for now you can save on the Baby Ocean & Others eBook. My eBook bundles are always discounted (this one is 30%) so you’ll be saving 50% off that already discounted price!

Life Update

It’s birthday season here and my garden is overflowing with weeds but I’ve been working on 3 big projects in the background! One is just personal and you may never hear any details (sorry, lol). Two are crochet-related, and although they’re separate tasks they’re completely related. I can’t wait to tell you more!

Love and hugs,

Ashlee
