Thank goodness one of my favorite events of the year has always been virtual! The Indie Design Gift-A-Long! If you are not familiar with the Gift-A-Long, GAL for short, then you are in for a treat!
8 years ago, a discussion about cooperation and non-competition was going on in the Ravelry designers’ forum. From that discussion came the idea to have an event that would celebrate that very spirit. There were several weeks of coordinated knit-a-longs and crochet-a-longs too, with games and prizes, and a big sale to start things off. It was a huge success! So much fun for the designers and all the many knitters who participated.
2020 is the 8th annual event and it is bigger and better than ever! There are just over 250 designers, each with 10 -20 of their patterns discounted by 25% for the first week! The same sales code applies to all: giftalong2020 . The code becomes active at 8pm EST Tues Nov 24th and will work until 11:59pm on Mon Nov 30th. To see my 20 patterns eligible for the discount you can go to my Ravelry bundle. The sale is a big draw of course, but head over to the Ravelry Group to read about the whole 5 weeks of fun! Hope to see you in one of the Knit-a-longs!
