Ty so much for all doing this it’s lovely to be introduced to different fab creators 😎👌
Thank you. Yes I love the mix of designers and what they come up with.
I have tried 2, two, days in a row to order the bundle of $9.99. After inputting my card information, the button to place the order will not catch. I even put in 2 different cards thinking that you didn’t accept the first card. I am leaving town on the 5th and will not be able to print the pattern each day. Please help me.
Hi Sharon. So sorry. I just saw your comment. There were so many strange glitches as I launched this bundle, where the shopping cart didn’t show up and then said sold out. It was a nightmare getting it functioning. I hope that it is working ok for you now. It should be ok with your card as it is paypal If not get in touch with me at carrowaycrochet@outlook.com when you get home and I can do a personal sale for you. Thank you so much. SO sorry for the frustration.
THE COUPON FOR THE BUNNY COASTER D OES NOT WORK, TRIED IT SEVERAL TIMES AND IT SAID INVALID. CAN YOU PLEASE FIX THIS. THANK YOU.
Hi there. I am so sorry. I don’t see the comments on here very often. In the blog post for the March Maker Madness Hop I ask people to email me at carrowaycrochet@outlook.com if they have any problems so that way I will see if people have issues. It’s much easier to manage if people would email me. I am sorry you missed the coaster. Also for future issues you can contact the designer as they usually have a contact button on their website. I have no control over their patterns. All I an say is I tested the code and it was working for her day. I am sorry you couldn’t get the free download.
I love your patterns. Hope someday you have the fairy flower hat pattern for children.
Thank you so much for all the awesome patterns.
thank you Linda. Do you mean the flower bucket hat. I could do that for sure.
I’ve tried relentlessly to get the BUNNY code to work for the coasters and to no avail. Is there a problem with it?
Hi Anna I am so sorry. I don’t see the comments on here very often. In the blog post for the March Maker Madness Hop I ask people to email me at carrowaycrochet@outlook.com if they have any problems so that way I will see if people have issues. It’s much easier to manage if people would email me. I am sorry you missed the coaster. Also for future issues you can contact the designer as they usually have a contact button on their website. I have no control over their patterns. I did test the code and it was working for her day so I can’t understand why some folks had issues with it. I am sorry you couldn’t get the free download. I know this designer is in India so the time zones might have had something to do with it. So sorry.
I’m not sure why it is dating my comment on 3/7. I’m in the USA and it is 7:14pm on 3/6 here. Thank you. And thank you for all your patterns and blogs. They are very much appreciated.
All the time zones are so hard to figure out, like I don’t know if where my blog is hosted might impact the times shown on our comments here. I am so glad you are able to get most of the patterns and that you are enjoying them. Once again, to ensure I see your questions or comments in a more timely manner you can email me at carrowaycrochet@outlook.com. Thanks for your support.
PS. I just noticed when I replied to your post that is is time stamped for 7 hours ahead of my time here in the Pacific Time Zone so it must be hosted in Europe or uses Grenwich Mean Time Zone. Its a crazy world.
What an amazing roundup of free patterns! The Maker Madness hop is such a great community event. I copied the event links to my online clipboard so I don’t miss any days.
If anyone else is in the same situation as me where Day 25 is not showing up on the blog hop page, several mailing lists I’m on mentioned today’s pattern and I was able to look it up and the necessary info about the blog hop is at the bottom of the page: https://www.jerasjamboree.co.uk/beginner-friendly-crochet-ruana-pattern/
What happened to Day 25? I understand it’s supposed to be Jera’s Jambaree’s Chrochet Ruana, but I can’t find it anywhere. The blog only goes up to Day 24!
Thanks for mentioning this! I, too, have been wondering about Day 25 on this post, but I searched for the pattern you mentioned (“Jera’s Jamboree Crochet Ruana”) after your comment and found this is one of the patterns/makers who have it as a free download directly on their own site, no coupon code needed.
I just went to Jera’s Jamboree website and typed in RUANA and went to the blog post. The free download button is there. It works!
Thank you!!!
Thank you so much Janet.
So glad it worked. It is complicated when each designer has a different way to get the free pattern. Thanks for letting me know.
Hi! Thank you for hosting the blog hop. Today is day 25, and for some reason I still can’t see the listing for today. Even refreshing and deleting history didn’t fix. Is anyone else having this issue?
Thanks for hosting the blog hop! I enjoyed it and discovered a few designers who were new to me.
Thank you Christine.
