Imagical Seasons: New Patterns, Giveaway + MORE!
| August 30, 2012 | Filled under Giveaway, My Book, Writing a book |
I’m so excited to share with you all a sneak peek of my very first book. Although it seems that the amount of work to be done is still endless and I still need to learn lots of new skills and things, I’m so glad that I started this book venture! I’m absolutely sure that I would do this again, especially if I will be teaming up again with incredible Tin Ambat and Annya Uslontseva! Tin’s brilliant descriptions and Anna’s fantastic book layout have made the book look great, even if it is still a draft version and only 1/3 of it is done…
So, let me introduce:
Imagical SeasonsTM: Crochet Couture for Kids 2-12 years
Imaginative and magical designs for little ones in your life.
… where Imagical is a portmanteau word – a combination of “imagine” and “magical”. It describes perfectly what I want to achieve: coming up with unique ideas and designs, and making them a reality through the application of basic crochet and knitting skills…
Want a sneak peek of book and pattern preview?
Well, this is not a final version – still need to do photos for book and polish a bit there and there, but it’s pretty close to what book will look like ;o)
What do you think? Any questions or advice about the book name, designs, layout, charts, or instructions? I would love to hear from you! Please leave your comments, suggestions and feedback here. All your input is appreciated!
*** Patterns release update: Silverlace and Tropicana Blanket patterns will be released this afternoon are released, and Petalline dress pattern – tomorrow will be released September, 4 (not sure what was in my mind when I offered two releases of such big patterns in 2 days, I still need to do the modeling and polish pattern a bit – my apologies for this delay) .
Both patterns are released and available now (click links below):
Silverlace and Tropicana Blanket
Of course, we will have our traditional little giveaway … the first 6 people who leave a comment on this post will get blankets or dress patterns (one pattern per person – fully for your choice) via email in PDF format, absolutely FREE right they will be released! *** This giveaway is closed and winners are: Donna, Mary Z, Mutant Supermodel, Natasha, Laurie and Rose. My CONGRATULATIONS!! Dear ladies, please email me with your pattern choice and I’ll email your patterns right away!
