40 Free Patterns at Maggie's Crochet for Subscribers (free)

[eyrthmother1]

woot woot, less than 18 folks to go. :D:D

[snbarclay]

well its been a long time . I think I signed up back when it first came out .

[slicer]

I just signed up. I think it's funny that all the numbers seem to end in ***,*82!!

[Debbi-a1]

I signed up too. But then I noticed this

"Our goal is to reach 40,000 crocheters by 2007"

It reads: by 2007.

Does that mean it is over? That's the way I read it.

 

I wondered, I had signed up a about a week ago. This was the reply e-mail:

 

It looks like we will reach our goal and this will be offered next week!!!!

 

 

 

Have a great day,

 

 

Tina

Hey! I was just checking on the number for this and we're sooo close:

Current Total: 39,982

 

That means 18 more folks sign up and we're there! (what patterns are you going to order for 40% off??)

[crazeejanie]

yes.. good point.. why do they all end in 82?? its not that difficult to change more than one number in html...

[Tampa Doll]

My understanding is that Maggie's already has the 40 patterns picked out. They will be sending the same 40 to everyone.

Correct me if I am wrong.

Maggie is more than likely using a counter to keep track. Why all the updates end in 82 is beyond my thinking other than:

a) a coincidence

b) just easier to remember to post updates every 100 or so

c) 82 has a special meaning to Maggie

d) none of the above

 

Wonder if she'll wait until the number actually reaches 4,082???

LOLOLOL!

Yes, goodness, if you aren't signed up, sign up! I'm so excited about some of these patterns, you just don't even know!

[donnalynn2]

They've been at 39,982 for almost 2 weeks now... Wonder what the deal is?

[thebackfence]

Thanks for letting us know about this. I definitely threw my name into the mix.

[Mermaiden]

Darn it, it's so hard to wait isn't it?!

 

(what patterns are you going to order for 40% off??)

 

I plan to buy some things when they go on discount too!

Floral dishclothes, because I just can't find the right round potholder I want, and the rose one here is perfect!

 

I love this one, but the above has several for one price...

These are so pretty, maybe I'll have to!

I'd buy this, but I already bought it at Annie's Attic

Too cute, isn't it?

[misssmaggie]

I stand corrected! I just glanced at the pictures...figured I would wait for the e-mail and be surprised.

[diamond]

I just got THE email. Maggie's has reached not just 40,000 customers but

Current Total: 41,082

I thought she might wait until 40,082 but not 41,082

 

In any case, here's the link: 40 Free Patterns

[Chiscrochetcrazy]

Cool I won't look a gifthorse in the mouth but I don't see much I'd make. A free pattern is a free pattern though

[Mermaiden]

Check this post, they are here!

I just downloaded them! It downloads as a word file...but...the pictures aren't there! So...I went back-and-forth...and did a copy-and-paste of each picture to the pattern it belongs with.

 

By the way...THANKS MAGGIE!!!

[ktfdj]

Thank you for letting us know!

[MsSuzKelly]

well, you learn somthing new every day. I didn't know you copy and past a picture into a document. I am tickled! LOL.

[LadyBeBop]

The free patterns aren't much. However I overused the 40% discount. I bought about $40 worth of patterns (before S&H) for less than $30 (after S&H).

[Debbi-a1]

I also noticed the pictures weren't there. So I copied them and will later put them in the right place (don't have time right now). But they look good.
