Meet Terence the Tap Dancing T-Rex!

As promised, dino #2!

Yeah! Basil has been such a hit, I hope you all love Terence, too! He is another dancing dinosaur, which just tickles my funny bone and makes me chuckle every time I think about it. Dancing dinosuars, hee hee hee.

But, back to topic. Yes! Terence T-Rex is up in my etsy shop, and my website, and on Ravelry. He is also on sale for 4 bucks for the first month, like with Basil. Who he looks awesome with, by the way:

And what do you think would you like a KAL again for the tricky bits? I wasn't 100% planning one, since it was way more work than I expected last time, but if it was helpful for you I would be happy to do it again. Let me know (comment here, email, etc).

There you go, happy dino knitting!

And the Winner Is......

I wrote every one who donated's name on a slip of paper (over 40 people, wowza!) and drew a name today (with my eyes closed). Anna, if you could email me, I realized I don't have your email address. I will get your new monster friend in the mail to you as soon as I hear from you!

THANK YOU SO MUCH to every one who donated. I raised 500 dollars! Amazing!

And thank you, too, for such a fan-flipping-tabulous pattern release with Basil. Holy smokes, it is by far my best pattern release ever. It has sure kept me busy since yesterday!

Alrighty, I am off to finish up my current this weekend so I can get cast on for my Basil KAL next week! Make sure to stop in monday for lots of dino-knitting tips. I am going to use this yarn and this yarn for a lovely green dino.

 

Meet Basil The Boogie-Woogie Brontosaurus!

That's right, it is a dinosaur. How flipping cool is that?

I know you have always wanted a knitted brontosaurus, so here he is. And I am especially fond of his story, since he is a dancing dinosaur.

He is available in my etsy shop, my ravelry shop, and on my website. I am doing my $4 sale for the first month too, yeah! If you love the guy pictured above, he is made out of Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sport in Firefly and Charcoal. I carry both colors on my website and in my etsy shop. I have bundled it too, so you can buy the 2 colors together for 20 bucks (instead of $24).

I am also very excited because I am going to do a KAL for Basil all next week on the blog here. I am going to get cast on on Monday and go over all the little bits you might run into with questions. So, go get your yarn over the weekend and cast on with me on Monday! Come ask me your questions about the pattern in the comments on the blog here, and check out my in-depth tutorials. Sounds pretty awesome, right? I know, I do what I can!

So, remember I mentioned yesterday that this was the first in a series of three patterns? Can you guess what the other 2 patterns will be?! The next 2 will be out one each in May and June. Woo!

I will do my drawing tomorrow, so get those last minute donations in today! Read this post for all the det's. 

 

 

Thursday Knit Night: Yarn Sale!

Today is my birthday! Thank you so much for all of the wonderful birthday wishes in all of my inboxes, you guys are so sweet!

Guess what....in honor of my birthday, Valentine's Day, and my business anniversary (I started Danger Crafts 3 years ago this week), I am having a sale! All in-stock yarns are 20% off, and the prices are already marked down in my etsy shop and on my website. Sale starts February 9th and goes through February 29th. 

And....I just sent out my first newsletter! So if you are signed up, I finally, FINALLY got a newsletter out. Go me!

Ok, now get off the blog and go get some yarn!

Got Yarn?

So, if you've been keeping your eyes on my etsy shop and website you might have noticed I added some new stuff over the weekend. I get so many questions about what yarns I like to use, and good places to get them, and what sizes and where to get safety eyes and noses, that I thought I would start offering them! So, I am very excited to have gotten them all listed on etsy and my website this weekend.

Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock in Unicorn Parade, $24

I have been doing up a few projects in Lorna's Laces' yarns for my book recently and realized just how much I love their yarn. So I put in an order and thought I would offer some great monster (and other project) yarns to you. I picked a few of my favorites to start, but it was hard to pick, so there's lots to choose from!

Iris Kit in Robot Overlord, $24

I have also restocked Iris kits in a different yarn at a little bit lower price. AND, my most requested item:

Eye Variety Pack, $10

Safety eyes and noses! I get asked where to get these daily, so now you can get them through me, yeah!

Hop on over and check it out on my website or on etsy. And make sure to sign up for my mailing list since I plan on offering monthly specials to subscribers.

How Bout A Website?

Remember I said earlier this year I had lots of exciting things going on for Danger Crafts? Well one has launched today!

We've been working on this for several months very slowly, but it is live today and I am totally excited. www.dangercrafts.com is here! Go check it out, but be remember we are still working out the bugs and fixing things. Email me if you do have any big issues you see though please.

The most exciting thing about the site? Instant download of the patterns! You will be sent a link when you check out. So cool!

I am off to fix a few things on the site and keep looking it over now. And then, I am out to run errands this afternoon. It's a big day, leaving the house!
