Since it’s Back To School Time, I decided we need a suitable Giveaway!  So, what could be better than a great book to learn or improve crochet skills.  This book can be that for you.  Erika Knight has gathered a set of 20 designs with the intent of making accessible a variety of crochet skills.  So, this book will definitely earn its place on your crochet bookshelf.

If you’d like to win this book, you’ll have to carefully follow all the instructions listed here.  Failure to do so will disqualify your entry.

1.”PIN” your favorite of my 2012 CrochetGossip blog articles on Pinterest (there’s a tiny little red Pin Button at the bottom of each article);

2. Enter your first name (or user name) and your zip code in the Comments Section below.

The contest runs from now through midnight CDT August 31, 2012.  I will assign each qualifying entry a number and pull a number at random from a hat.  That person will win a brand-spanking new copy of Simple Crocheting by Erika Knight!

How easy is that??  So, get busy and pick your favorite CrochetGossip article, Pin it, and enter your info in the Comments Section!

    I would pin several articles, but something strange is happening with my “puter. It won’t work. I just saw the article about the “Butterfly Project” I’m going to give the info to the manager at the Culver City Senior Center” near me, in Los Angeles, CA. Oh how I could pin that.
    Oh well.
