From the Roxycraft Flickr Pool

We’ve been posting pictures from the flickr pool over at Pimp Stitch for a while now and I thought it would be fun to post a few from the Roxycraft Gallery Flickr pool too.

Huge Sale!!!!

To Celebrate the release of my book, “Tiny Yarn Animals“, releases on August 5th, I’m having a huge sale.

For this week only, you can buy my “All Roxycraft Patterns” Collection which contains all current Roxycraft patterns for 75% off the retail price. $84 worth of patterns for $21.50! Amazing!

If you live in the Sacramento Area, I’ll be signing copies of Tiny Yarn Animals at the Borders Store of Fair Oaks Blvd on August 7th at 7pm.

So come one out and meet me, cause I certainly want to meet YOU! Have a coffee at the Seatle’s Best (my cousin is the District Manager for SB) and have a chat. I’ll be open for a Q&A and maybe a demo too…still trying to figure that out…lol.

Hope I see you there!!!
