The
GAL starts with a sale. Every designer participating in the event is
offering 25% off a selection of their designs using the code
giftalong2020. Simply add the patterns you want to you Ravelry
cart, use the code when checking out and get a bargain! To see which
patterns a designer has
included, head to their designer profile (here's mine as an example) and look for the bundle
labelled Gift-A-Long (or similar), this bundle will feature all the patterns the
designer has chosen to include in the sale.
Do note that you will have to checkout separately for each designer you
wish to buy from. The sale lasts until Monday 30th November 2020 at 11:59 pm (US-EST).
If you would like to join in with the GAL, and shop with GAL designers, but would prefer not to use Ravelry, you can find a full list of GAL designers here, including any other places where their patterns are available. All my patterns are available on LoveCrafts, and my newer patterns are available on PayHip (if you want any of my patterns adding to PayHip so you can purchase them from there, let me know and I'll get them added).
The
second portion of the GAL is a massive knit and crochet along. Any paid for
design** by a participating designer is eligible for inclusion in the
craft along, just head to the Ravelry group*
and get crafting. If you finish an item before the end of the GAL
(23.59 EST, Thursday 31st December 2020), post it to the finished
objects thread for the appropriate category and at the end of the GAL,
you could win a prize. There will also be plenty of opportunities to join in on Instagram, follow @indiegiftalong for full details.
As well as the sale and knit and crochet along, there are lots of activities taking place in the Ravelry group, including quizzes and games. There is also an Instagram challenge running for the duration of the GAL, with photo prompts for specific days. I'll be taking part in the Instagram challenge, so follow me over there if you would like to see what I'm posting.
