Straight Hooked

Check out last week’s post HERE for all the details on how you can save on every pattern exclusively at Straight Hooked! I have 2, possibly 3 new patterns coming out this month, and they too will be included in the sale! And now for the first great news of August: It’s PATTERN RELEASE DAY!

Guess what?! I am putting all of my patterns on sale until the end of August! Use the code StraightHookin and take 35% off of any pattern at checkout! I put a lot of time and effort into each of my designs, and have them tested by my amazing group of talented crocheters. Every pattern I publish comes to you digitally in a full-color PDF with detailed instructions. If you're on the fence about trying out my patterns, you can get a feel for my style with a few free patterns here on my blog!

It’s Friday again, AND its time for another edition of Hooked In! This month, I want to introduce you to my friend Helen who is one half of the CEO partnership of Sunflower Cottage Crochet. Full disclosure: I have had one heck of a busy week and my brain is fried. So I’m going to skip the usual fluff and head right on into the interview:

I have made friends with some of the most amazing, talented and encouraging folks from all over the world, and while all of our lives are completely different, we have a common bond- yarn. I have had long conversations over messaging with so many women, and I have yet to find a catty person among them. We may not see eye to eye on favorite foods, television shows, parenting styles, or you know, the general-ness of life in 2020, but we all love yarn, and our differences do not stand in our way of being friends. I wish that all people had crochet to bring them together. I think if people would just sit down and hook together, the craziness of now would die down and we could recognize that we are all people.

This week I have rounded up a whole bunch of great FREE crochet patterns perfect for summer! From clothing and accessories to home décor, my friends and I have you covered. On top of that, my friend Susan at Fosbas Designs is hosting the Summer Vibes Blog Hop this month, where you can download a paid pattern for FREE every day this month, AND my Friend Pam is hosting the Hooked On Summer Pattern Giveaway where you can get FREE patterns every week! July is “Freedom Month” here in the United States, and we are all celebrating with a ton of amazing patterns! It's a genuine Free Pattern Palooza!
