GIVEAWAY-So many patterns, so hard to chose

There are so many projects out there to crochet that my www.ravelry.com favorites list just keeps growing. Then I look at all the patterns for sale at www.etsy.com and I want them all. Since it is so warm here now, the typical scarves, winter hats, mittens, sweaters, etc just aren't calling to me. To pick something else I've been having to look around. The more I look, the bigger those lists get. Kindle covers, amigurumi, sundresses, and so much more my head starts to spin. When you have such a long list it is so hard to chose what's next.

I decided I would bribe ya'll to help me pick what to work on. This will also be my very 1st giveaway. All you have to do is comment below with a link to a pattern (free or for purchase) or make a suggestion of a project to do. You can find patterns on blogs, www.etsy.com, www.ravelry.com, www.bevscountrycottage.com, www.crochetpatterncentral.com, and so much more. However, in most cases, if you leave a suggestion I can find a pattern for it as well. The project should be "crochet" because if you suggest knit it will take a year to get your prize :-D

I will chose the winner using random.org.  The winner will be chosen around (I say around because we live on "kid time") 9am Eastern on June 6th from the comments listed at that time.  Only 1 entry per person.  If you comment more than once I will only count the 1st comment as an entry.  If you have more than 1 suggestion you can put them all in 1 comment but I will only chose 1 to make.  If there is no way to contact you with your comment, it will be up to you to watch the blog to see if you win, then contact me.  If you do not contact me within a week (or respond to my contact to you) I may redraw the winner.  Turnaround time will vary depending on the size of the project, size of the yarn and size of the hook used.  It could be a couple days to a couple months.

  1. I've been eyeing this pattern for some time. I'd have to make it in a L/XL. I just love it as I feel it would go with many things - Earthy colors - browns or greens.

  3. I love this Missoni looking bear. So cute! http://tinyurl.com/452yh7a Or look at this Dachshund With the stripes. Adorable! http://tinyurl.com/3b8ymcl If I knew how to do more than a SC I would make them all. But even watching Art of Crochet by Teresa YouTube videos leaves me struggling most of the time.
