Flash Sale: use code “thankful”

It’s thanksgiving weekend here in Canada! I almost missed it. Our schedules sort of forget the calendar most of the time; we homeschool the kids and neither of us work a 9-5 office job.

I thought about creating a sale a few days ago when our oven died. The small puff of smoke at the electrical outlet didn’t turn into an actual fire so I’m very thankful we have a house! We have a lead on a used oven from a friend of a friend who just moved into a new house but we won’t be able to get it until Thursday which means we’ll be without an oven for a full week. Really wishing we lived in the city where you can order takeout hahahah!

I know there are lots of crochet designers who turn to their mailing lists and Facebook groups when the bills pile up. I sometimes lose all empathy when I read sob story after sob story. I’ve purchased bundles because I believed their tales and then the next week they are claiming a different story and it made me feel tricked. I didn’t want to be like them so I didn’t create a sale for my oven.

But then I realized it’s a holiday! I can create a sale for the holiday!

This sale is not limited to one design like our permanent newsletter promotion. You can use it on any pattern or eBook I have listed on Ravelry or Etsy.

The code “THANKFUL” will save you $5 off a minimum purchase of $25. Offer ends 11:59pm CST October 10, 2023.

Patterns shown in header photo

It seemed weird to interrupt my beginning paragraph with a list of patterns shown in the photo, but in case you’re wondering about those ones I still wanted to list them here for you.

Moonlight on the City Shawl

Thank you!

Truly, I am so thankful for everyone’s loving comments and support! This year has been quite different than the last few years of designing. Instead of popping out a million patterns I’ve been much, much slower with new designs. I’ve been purposefully changing how I live this life and trying to be as “me” as I can be. Thank you for your patience while I grow!
