Aw thank you Barbara. I really appreciate you taking the time to comment. I am so happy you like the selection. We have another great collection coming next week. This is such a joy to do. Take care Pam
What a fabulous blog hop. I love this format way better than having to remember every day to look. Big thank you to you and all the designers participating in this blog hop.

Thank you so much. We really appreciate all the great feedback.
Hi, I am having a hard time downloading the stair baskets,,, I really like them, i cannot find the download button. Thanks
Hi Annette. It is at the bottom of the page. It is a large button just above the return to the blog hop button, and it is at the bottom where the pattern is written out.
Thank you for all your hard work putting this blog hop together.
I have one concern. The link for the birthday cupcake amigurumi seems to be broken because I get a 404 error when I click on the photo.
Thank you to all the designers who helped make this possible. Loved all the patterns. Missed a few in the first week as I caught it late…. but that was my fault. Thank you again enjoyed it
Thanks so much Jennifer. It means the world to us to know this has been a fun and meaningful event. Please feel free to join the Carroway Crochet Community on facebook if you like as I do post announcements there about new blog hops etc. so you don’t miss out.:-) Pam https://www.facebook.com/groups/carrowaycrochet
I am absolutely LOVING this! Thanks to you and all of the participating designers for sharing your fabulous work. Ravelry is saying the coupon code is expired for two of Week 3’s patterns, but the code is working for all the others; can you help? The two patterns are Paisley Project Bag and Plastic Crochet Basket.
Hi Leisl. I am so happy you have enjoyed the blog hop. Unfortunately the designers were only committed to having the pdf free on ravelry until midnight on May 21st EST so some may have set their coupon code promotion to end then. Sometimes people choose to let the offer run past the deadline to accommodate the differences in time zones, but that is a purely optional choice. I am sorry about this. The patterns are still written up on the designers blog posts if you want to access them there. I hope this makes sense to you. Thank you again.
Thank you so much everyone for the lovely patterns and thank you to Carroway Crochet for hosting this great hop!!
Thank you so much. I am glad you have enjoyed the May Makes Blog hop

Thank you so much Donna.
Thanks so much for doing this fun collection of patterns. Unfortunately, I never was able to get the coupon code to work for the lovely Smooth Waves Beach Tote.
Hi there. Thank you. Please make sure you are still logged in to Ravelry as this sometimes helps. Also sometimes I have had other things in my shopping cart, so check it only has the bag in it. And the final tip is that sometimes an old coupon code is in the coupom code area, so click remove it, and enter the new code. I hope these things work as it is still running until midnight tonight. I can contact the designer if you still can’t get it. Thanks. you can message me at carrowaycrochet@outlook.com.Thanks Pam
