If you would like to join in with the awards ceremony, copy the text section between the asterisks in the post directly below into your own text field / reply field, then cross out everything that does not apply to you, and fill in only what you would like to write down.

When will the November awards ceremony take place?
Around December 4/5, 2020. Every participant will be included. No one will be left without an honorary title.

But I’m “just” a regular user here and not an author with my own shop on Crazypatterns. Can I still take part in the awards ceremony?

Anyone who writes a relevant post here in the final sprint / awards ceremony thread is then automatically included in the awards ceremony. Newcomers may take part too. If you don’t have an account yet, register for free and simply join in.

November title awards: every participant receives at least one title
If someone has handled many challenges this month in everyday life / offline / in “normal” life without the internet, this can, at the request of the respective user / author, be recognized with an
appropriate honorary title / with extra bonus points. If necessary, I will come up with a suitable honorary title.

Earn extra points / bonus points and improve your own karma: Here’s how it’s done.
- You always get extra
bonus karma points for your own uploaded photos / images. Please do not upload any third-party images or photos from the internet / internet photos for which you do not have the rights / photos that do not belong to you here in the forum. These must be deleted. Please also no external links.

- Finished handmade items that are given to dear people as gifts or also
donated will of course always earn you extra karma points or bonus points, to properly acknowledge the time, effort + energy spent on them.
--> Please provide the details here in the thread, if you would like to share them.

I’m currently considering holding awards ceremonies only quarterly, as interest in them has declined.

The recognition of “Yarn Diet” participants after one year on the diet has nothing to do with the December awards ceremony.

My Advent calendar (pattern by Elke Eder, updated) doesn’t start (for now) until December 6…



Pattern by CadoohARTland: very beautiful, but laborious to crochet!

Oh wow, Christina, this all looks amazing! You didn’t show us any of this in the monthly thread. I’m blown away—especially by the Advent calendar and the two tractor pictures.

Wollbaerli is in too. :-)
Who’s still missing?

Thanks, Josefa, for the many titles and the good wishes. Yes, there’s still a lot to do before Christmas, and there are already plenty of projects waiting for afterward—especially the CAL (shawl) and the KAL (scarf), which are currently on hold.

I was happy to do that.
You’ll do great with all of this. :-)

Thanks, Josefa, for all the titles—it makes crafting even more fun! 

Thanks, Josefa! You always manage to put a smile on my face when I read your awards ceremony posts. I especially like “The Queen of the Bakery.”

I’d really miss something here if there were only an awards ceremony every three months. After all, it’s incredibly motivating to finish things and stick with it. So we’ll just have to motivate each other.
