Sunday Giveaway, A Beautiful Crochet Hook

Okay, this is my first Sunday giveaway for this year.  I have a beautiful wooden multicolored hand-carved crochet hook, size J, to give away to a lucky person.  This hook cost $40.00 in 2005.  I purchased it on ebay for my mother-in-law as a birthday gift but she was never able to get accustomed to using it.  I tried it for a while but I had the same problem.  I’m happy with my alluminum hooks and prefer to stick with those.  As usual, I will pay the postage.  This time, however, since this is such a nice item, I’ll require that you answer 2 questions accurately.  Place your answers in the comments section.  The first person with the correct answers will get the hook. HINT: The answers can all be found somewhere on my blog. 

Question 1: I have 4 grandchildren.  What are their names?

Question 2: What is the name of the town where I live?

GOOD LUCK!  I will check back in at noon to see what the entries look like.

 

Final Sunday Giveaway

Alas, I have run out of giveaway items so this will be my final weekend of giveaways.  In the future, I may do this again as I accumulate excess magazines and patterns.  This week, as GROUP I, I am offering a Crochetville Messenger Bag.  I purchased this bag several years ago and took it to one of the GGOA conventions.  It is large and fairly deep and has that ever-popular Crochetville logo.

In Group II I am offering 2 magazines as well as an assortment of loose patterns.  You will get everything in the pictures.

Please let me know which group you would like.  If you have already received a giveaway please let somebody else have a chance.  Leave a comment or send me a message on Crochetville.

 

Last Giveaway this Sunday

I’m just about out of unwanted stash so this will be my last giveaway.  There will be several magazines and assorted patterns.  I hope I can get rid of everything next week.  I appreciate all of you who kept an eye on my blog to see what was going to be offered each Sunday.

 

9TH Sunday Giveaway

              

    

 

  GROUP I

There are 4 loose patterns in Group I.  They have all been collected from magazines.  The bear pattern has a knit and a crochet version.  The little dress is for sizes 12 mos to 4 yrs.  Two pretty afghan patterns round out this collection.

GROUP II     

Group II consists of two booklets.  The Mirabella jacket by Carolyn Christmas can be made in several versions.  Pattern Play Crochet includes 5 patterns for afghans, pillows, and a beautiful jacket.

Please let me know which group you would like.  Make a comment on my blog.  If you have previously received a free item, please give somebody else a chance.

Finally my stash of unwanted items is beginning to dwindle.  I think that I have enough for two more giveaways after today.  Then I will have to get busy and actually crochet something!  Spring and summer are not big crochet months for me.  I’ve already resolved to get away from making clothing and try my hand at other projects.  What to make…

 

8th Sunday Giveaway

This week I am offering two groups again.  Both groups consist of an issue of Crochet! magazine and a vest pattern.  Please let me know if you want group I or group II.  Leave a comment.

Stay Tuned for the Next Giveaway!

7th Sunday Giveaway

Please note:  Next Sunday, May 2, there will be NO  giveaway.  I am going on vacation for a week and will not be taking my laptop with me.  Wow! no computer for a whole week.  I wonder how I’ll survive?  The Sunday giveaways will resume on May 9.

Group I

November 2006 and July 2007 issues of Crochet! magazine make up this group.  There are lots of garment patterns as well as afghans and assessories in these two issues.

Group II

Woman’s Day Granny Squares from 1976,  Annie’s Favorite Crochet from April 2006 and the “Learn How Book” from Coats make up group II. The granny square magazine has some wonderful afghan patterns as well as doilies, tablecloths and pillows.

Let me know which group you would like.  If you have already received a free item, please let somebody else have a chance.  First one to comment or email me gets the item.

 

6th Sunday Giveaway

This Sunday I am pleased to present several crochet publications.  McCall’s Needlework and Crafts was a popular magazine when I was in my teens.  Their pages were filled with knit and crochet projects, other needlework, sewing, and crafts.  Everything was beautifully presented and the projects were sophisticated and well designed.  I’ve managed to pick up a few copies at flea markets but they are very hard to find.  The copy below is a library edition with a hard cover.  There is also an Options leaflet and an edition of Interweave Crochet.  Please indicate group I or II when you contact me.

Group I

 

  

  

 The following group includes 2 vintage crochet publications and 1 issue of Crochet Today.  Comment or email me if you are interested in this group.

 

Group II

 

 

 

 

If you have received free items in the past, please let somebody else have a chance this week.

 

5th Sunday Giveaway: JIMBO HOOK!

You see in the photos at left a Jimbo Q hook.  This is a very beautiful hook that has been resting in my craft room and wants to be out crocheting something.  Unfortunately, its been used only once.  Because of my ongoing wrist problems, I’ve completely stopped making anything that requires a size Q hook.  I also prefer the feel of a more slender grip because I hold my hook like a pencil. 

If you would like to have this Jimbo hook, email me or post a comment on my blog.  Previous recipients will not be eligible for this giveaway.  The first person to contact me will get the hook.

If you are interested in other sizes and styles of Jimbo Hooks, please visit Jimbo’s Front Porch.  Jimbo is an artist with a keen eye for creating gorgeous crochet hooks.

 

3RD Sunday Giveaway

I subscribe to Interweave Crochet and Crochet Today.  In the past, I also got Crochet! magazine.  It’s impossible to keep every issue.  I went through my collection and weeded out the issues that contained projects that I thought I would never make.  Interweave Crochet is a consistently excellent publication and their patterns are sophisticated and attractive.  However, there are only so many hours in a day to crochet.  Here are the two magazines I am offering today:

Interweave Crochet: Spring 2006     Interweave Crochet: Spring 2007

 

If you are interested in seeing the projects in each of these issues, click on the link in the name.  Leave a comment on my blog or e-mail me if you would like one of the issues.  First one to contact me gets it.
