Tis the Season For Gift Giving: Mamachee Crochet Patterns Giveaway - CLOSED

I have only recently begun to crochet, but I love it because it calms me, gives my fidgety fingers something to do while watching tv or waiting in line to pick up the kids at school. I am still a newbie, sticking to simple patterns, like hats, scarves & grannie squares. I am lucky enough to have an auntie who is patient enough to sit and teach me the basics, and whenever I am ready she teaches me new stitches. It’s been a fun learning process, and I’m happy to be creating beautiful things.

Last year I discovered Tara’s Mamachee Shop on Etsy. She has lovely crochet patterns – even some very basic patterns for rookies like myself. Her shop is where I found the pattern for the adorable hat I made for Henry last week. And Tara has many other patterns that I am itching to try once I get a little more practice in.

This week I have a special giveaway for my fans who like to crochet. Or, if you do not crochet, perhaps this would make a good gift for someone you know for the holidays!

One lucky winner will receive THREE free crochet patterns from Mamachee’s Etsy shop! She has so many cool things to choose from, you will have fun checking out all of the patterns she has created with love.

Here’s the lowdown:
Contest ends Friday, November 26 at 1pm
One winner will be selected using Random.org and has 48 hours to contact me or another winner will be chosen.

You have TWO chances to enter:
1. Go to Mamachee’s Etsy Shop and look at all of her patterns, then come back here and leave me a comment telling me what your favorite pattern is.
2. Help spread the word about this contest, via facebook, twitter, email, or even by telephone. Leave a comment below telling me you did so.
Best of luck!

I love the Galilee Scarf. It works up quickly and it's beautiful. It's easy to customize colors for a totally different look each time!

her patterns are great! I'm a big fan of hers on facebook. I love the Oma Slippers since they remind me of my Oma. I had told all my cousins about her etsy shop and website because they are crocheters also.

I love ALL of her patterns! I have quite a few of them and they are all written so well! Very easy to follow. She is super friendly to and if you have a question she writes back instantly with help! She's all around a super nice person to know! My choice for a pattern would be the vintage scallop hat pattern.
