GAL 2017 has began on Ravelry and I am one of 311 independent designers who take part. “What is Gift-A-Long? It’s a multi-designer promotion to help you kick your holiday gift-making into high gear! The Indie Design Gift-A-Long is a 6 week long KAL/CAL of holiday gifts made from patterns designed by a rather extensive list of independent designers. From November 21, 2017 at 8:00 pm US EST to December 31, 2017 at midnight US EST there will be fun games, contests, and 8 KAL/CALs that will help you get your holiday knitting and crocheting done with companionship and fun! From November 21, 2017 at 8:00 pm US EST to November 28th at 11:59pm US EST tons of indie designers will be discounting between 10 – 20 of their patterns 25% for this event”. Use coupon code: giftalong2017
I have discounted 20 of my patterns and you can see them all in this gift-a-long-2017 bundle. The total of all discounted patterns is 5 388. All participating designers have given away 6 individual digital patterns as prizes in the Knit/Crochet-A-Long threads in the dedicated Indie Design Gift-a-Long group. So the total number of digital prizes in these threads is just below 2000. So what are you waiting for? Do join us!
Here are some of my hot tips: Check out fellow Norwegian designer Kari-Helene Rane, her sale bundle is here: gift-a-long-2017. And Doreen Blask, aka Mrs Mumpitz, her sale bundle is here: gift-a-long-2017. Both designers are presenting other GAL designers, Kari-Helene on Facebook and Doreen on her blog. I have answered Doreen’s questions and you will find the interview on Tuesday 28. November here: mumpitz.design.
