Tomorrow night the sale for the SAL begins, and I am so thrilled to be part of this again, this time with 26 designers! We began our endeavor last year with 11 designers, so this is more than two and a half times the designers, and our participant numbers are growing, too. That is really gratifying, and I am so thankful for all of you who have been joining us. If you are able to join our Ravelry Group, or follow our Instagram feed and participate there, we have games and prizes as well as access to our designers in both places.

Each designer has a bundle of five patterns that are on sale with the coupon code sal2021 from 5:00 pm PST February 12, 2021 through 11:59 pm PST February 19, 2021. You can find my bundle on Ravelry and the same five patterns are in a collection called 2021 SAL in my PayHip store, where the coupon will also work for you. The actual knitting and crocheting begins Monday, February 15, 10:00 am PST and will go through March 28, 2021, at the end of the day (also PST).

There are so many beautiful patterns from our designers, many of which are new to me, and I am really excited to make at least one of them myself. I hope you will play along with us and tell your friends! We hope to be able to continue this next year and have even more designers, so if you know of any who are interested, please put them in contact with us.

My various mittens are progressing, and I promise I will have photos for you next week! We are about a third of the way through Jo's Boys and having some great discussions about it. It's been a good way for us to discuss the historical and literary references and talk about vocabulary and roots of words while having fun.

Linking to Unraveled Wednesday.
