That Way Madness Lies

OK the Ravelry problem has been fixed – you can buy patterns through this website and Ravelry as usual again.  FINALLY all the computer glitches seem to have been resolved (hopefully I didn’t just jinx myself).

To celebrate that, I’m going to run a promotion between now and the end of the month.  My best-selling Halloween design – Dem Bones – isn’t the Pattern of the month for October this year.  That honour goes to A Clowder of Cat Sweaters (there is a Halloween-themed pattern in there, if you look).  So, in order that people can still get their skeleton fix, I’m offering Dem Bones free with the purchase of any other pattern for the rest of October.

So if you think about it, really hard, you could get the Pattern of the Month and Dem Bones for $3.00!

It Never Rains But It P… Actually, It Snowed Today.

“When sorrows come, they come not single spies
But in battalions.”

The computer problem is in a fair way to being sorted out.  Everything was saved, nothing was lost, and now work can begin in earnest towards getting the stocking pattern “out there” before Boxing Day.

Now, though, I have a Ravelry problem.  If anyone should try to buy my patterns there, or indeed through my website here (which takes you to Ravelry for payment), there is an error message saying that my pattern store is not active.  It’s active.  So active.  It runs marathons for feck sake!  But until this is sorted out – you can buy my patterns through Craftsy or Patternfish.

And yes, it really did snow today.  Hardened Upstate New Yorkers struggled to lift an eyebrow – I am still a newcomer and raised both.
