Every year around this time, knitters on Ravelry kick off a magical event that lasts though the end of December. It’s the annual Indie Designer Gift-A-Long! Loads of designers put some of our most popular patterns on sale to give you a gift-knitting boost, then participate in a month of games, contests, and general encouragement.

So to get to the good stuff, head over to Ravelry right now and get 25% off twenty of my patterns through December 2. Just use the code giftalong2019 at checkout for any of the patterns in my 2019 Gift-A-Long bundle at the top of my Ravelry designer page! And have a look at massive number of designers participating!

To learn more about the Gift-A-Long, check out the Ravelry forum.


Patterns I want to knit

One thing that’s so fun about the Gift-A-Long is that it reminds me to have a look at what my colleagues are up to and do some personal gift knitting myself. Here are some patterns that caught my eye this year. I’ll definitely be shopping this sale myself.

I definitely veer toward smaller accessories for gift knitting, but I do love a good squishy shawl . I don’t know if I’ll actually have time for sweater knitting this season, but one can always dream, right? And I don’t crochet professionally, but sometimes I just get the itch to play a little differently, so I had to add some crochet ideas in there.
