Would you like to join the Indie Design Gift-A-Long on Ravelry? It’s just begun, and the giant pattern sale is go! Over 300 designers are taking part this year, and there are giant searchable Ravelry bundles and Pinterest boards full of patterns for your browsing pleasure.
My own discounted patterns are collected in a Ravelry bundle here - they're 25% off with the coupon code giftalong2016, from now until the end of November.
This is the third year I've taken part in the Gift-A-Long, and this year I'm a moderator which is both fun and (so far) really busy. I’m co-hosting the Hand & Arm Things KAL and will also be on Prize Patrol once a week, handing out pattern coupons to people who post project photos at just the right time. ;) Come and join in if you're keen to start a new project!
Here are some of the GAL's stats, in a pretty graphic put together by our stats queen Kimberly Golynskiy:
I have my first project picked out, which is a pair of Grellow Love socks (Ravelry link). I've dug out some leftovers and little scraps of Vintage Purls Sock and Knitsch Sock, so I can do crazy-coloured contrasting heels and toes...

My main project right now is a secret laceweight wrap, but I think I should have time to at least make some short socks as well. They can be my comparatively-straightforward project to work on in between bouts of lace knitting and GAL chatting. :)
