Great!

Great promotion, thank you so much!

I always think these promotions are great, too.

That’s cool!

Super! Vielen Dank!

I’ve been doing crafts on and off for a long time. Thanks to the great patterns, it’s really fun. I’m glad I downloaded this app. Best regards, Christa Schröder

Is the promotion just moving a bit slowly for me?

I think I’ve only received 3 reviews from it so far...

Hi Nina,

the campaign is going very well. Several hundred reviews are being written every day. In previous campaigns, however, about 80% of the reviews were written on the last day. So just wait and see :-)

Best regards
Alexander

Hi Alexander,

I was just curious, so I thought I’d ask :)

Best regards

I’ve already received lots of patterns and followed them.
I was very satisfied with all of them, and the instructions were very clear.
These certainly won’t be the last patterns I order.

Hi,
I’ve picked up various patterns from you guys for inspiration... everything from hats to a crochet owl.
Great patterns and fantastic explanations... These certainly won’t be the last ones...

Das nenn ich doch proaktiv! 
Sehr gute Aktion! Hab heute bereits 11 Bewertungen verzeichnet und alle sehr positiv "freu"

Vielen Dank!!!!

PS: und verkaufen kann man bei der Gelegenheit auch ganz gut! :-)

Dear anne-wagner, dear customer,
Thank you so, so much for your feedback!
Of course, that motivates us authors even more!

Best wishes from Austria!

Hi there,

Conny here. I’ve been doing crafts for at least 40 years—embroidery, crocheting, knitting, and much more. It’s really great that I can find such awesome patterns here. And I’ve already been able to bring joy to many people. What I especially like is that the patterns are pretty up to date; unfortunately, I haven’t found any Anna or Elsa patterns yet. Other than that, I can only say: keep up the good work!

@ strickwunder: Anna and Elsa are copyrighted characters, but how about a different doll? You’d only need to adjust the hair. Of course, they wouldn’t have the same outfits, but maybe you’ll find one with similar ones and only need to make a few small adjustments or change the color.
Or take a look here. Maybe with white braided hair, a silver instead of a gold crown, embroidered snowflakes, and possibly a cape

Or have a look at the other dolls here.

I’m very pleased about this promotion and thank everyone for their reviews.

Achso und Anna lässt sich bestimmt auch aus den Puppen hier zaubern ;)

Hi,

since I always have a lot of leftover yarn, I wanted to give crocheting a try.
Great patterns—I’ve already gotten others excited about them, too. So I’ll
definitely keep browsing.

Best regards

Hi Haekeljette,

just search for "wollreste" - maybe you'll find something:

Dear buyers,
 
The March campaign has now ended, and we are overwhelmed by the result. 
During the campaign period (March 8 to 31, 2016), over 24,000 reviews were written. 
We are so thrilled with the campaign that we have increased the number of winning reviews to 15. 

Thank you very much for taking part!
 
The winners are: 

1. Miki74 with the review for the pattern: Crochet Pattern All-Purpose Pants Easter Decoration Storage Basket
Excerpt from the review: I bought the pattern because I think the idea of the little all-purpose pants is original and the photos on the product page are very appealing. However, these pictures no longer appear in the description, which is a shame, since it showcases the product well and I had expected the picture too 
The pattern explains how to make the all-purpose pants well, though, and the most important steps are illustrated with pictures...


2. Miki74 with the review for the pattern: Crochet Pattern - Carrot
Excerpt from the review: This little “carrot” is a lovely gift package for spring and Easter. You don’t need to know many stitches to crochet the little carrot bag. The pattern describes the making process very well. The main part is crocheted in spiral rounds. I used thinner yarn and a size 2 hook because I wanted the carrot to be a bit smaller...


3. Schokoholic with the review for the pattern: Crochet Basket / Storage Basket
Excerpt from the review: The pattern is described wonderfully and includes lots of helpful pictures. Truly top-notch! However, the basket is crocheted with a fairly small hook, which is why it takes a few weeks if you only have a little time to crochet in the evenings after work ;-) But the basket turns out quite sturdy and looks really chic! ...


4. Peterle with the review for the pattern: LimeBeanie Ku 40-59
Excerpt from the review: It took a long time; the fabric had been sitting on the shelf for weeks, but now I finally managed it and sewed this hat for my daughter. She tried it on right away and decided it was good and “cool” enough ;o)
The sewing went smoothly. Step by step according to the pattern, it was finished in no time. Basically, nothing can go wrong...


5. Miki74 with the review for the pattern: Crochet Pattern Egg Cup Sheep
Excerpt from the review: These cute little sheep are an original Easter decoration, and I liked them at first sight. :-)
What struck me about the pattern was that it is very detailed and written with a lot of heart. First there is information on the materials and crochet technique, including gauge. After that, every step is explained in great detail and accompanied by a corresponding photo...


6. Peterle with the review for the pattern: Knitting Pattern Felted Moccasins Sizes 18 - 47
Excerpt from the review: ...that it works so easily and then has such a great effect with the typical “moccasin edge.” Dear Ina, you really had a fantastic idea there! The pattern was also described in veeeery great detail, so making it was very easy and quick. Since I didn’t make a gauge swatch (which I definitely want to recommend to everyone here), the first pair turned out too small. But that wasn’t a problem at all. I quickly found someone to take them...


7. Peterle with the review for the pattern: Keychains Made of Wool Felt - Free Pattern
Excerpt from the review: I had downloaded this pattern quite a while ago. Now I finally sewed them too, the great letter charms! For my daughter’s birthday. Each child gets one with their letter as a party favor in the candy bag!! My girls have already discovered them and thought they were really great. The pattern is well explained. The author also gives tips, such as using the handwheel in the tight curves. That made sewing these tricky spots much easier! ...


8. Juna83 with the review for the pattern: Pleated Skirt “Rockelinchen Vol. 2”
Excerpt from the review: I saw this skirt and immediately thought—I want it. But help: it has a pleat. After I calmly read through the pattern, I thought, this pleat sounds easy. And that’s exactly how it was. Super nicely described and well illustrated, without having to fight your way through a never-ending pattern first...


9. LibertineFarmer with the review for the pattern: Summery Crochet Poncho Peacock Eye
Excerpt from the review: The pattern was revised really well! Great photos with a very good description! Super job! Well-deserved 5 stars for that. :) ...


10. Wichtelmaus with the review for the pattern: Amber, Knitting Pattern, Shawl
Excerpt from the review: So first of all: the shawl really knits up quickly, especially since a large portion of the rows are just knit stitches, so it doesn’t require sooo much concentration. After knitting for a while, I was skeptical whether the shawl would really stretch to be as wide in the end as in the picture...


11. _Karina with the review for the pattern: Equilibrium
Excerpt from the review: I am absolutely thrilled. The pattern is described in great detail and clearly structured. A lot of time and love were invested in it. If you are familiar with the basics of knitting, this piece can be made very easily using this pattern...


12. JaToMa3 with the review for the pattern: Crochet Pattern Snowman Candy Jar
Excerpt from the review: This crochet pattern is very well written and is wonderful to make. The size measurements are accurate to the millimeter, although I made the heads a tiny bit larger, but that is purely a matter of taste...


13. IdaBuchmann with the review for the pattern: Nook 2 - The Corner Loop
Excerpt from the review: I’m giving the stars for the idea; I can’t do much with the 9 pages of instructions. I’ve been knitting in every free minute for 46 years and would say I know my way around a bit. How a beginner is supposed to knit with it too is a mystery to me...


14. elvira1973becker with the review for the pattern: Pattern for Knitting Fringe Shawl Triangular Shawl * Feanor*
Excerpt from the review: Hello, when I saw the shawl, I thought, oh, I don’t need a pattern for that. No way. I ordered the pattern after all and got started. At first I couldn’t find my way around very well; I felt like I was looking at a city map upside down...


15. Jynx with the review for the pattern: Knitting Pattern Loop Nebula
Excerpt from the review: A very easy-to-understand pattern with a pattern stitch that works well. Simple and plain often add the special touch, and that’s true here too. An elegant loop scarf that is also suitable for men. Unfortunately, you can’t determine beforehand exactly whether the length will be enough for you, since it is knitted in the round and the entire number of stitches has to be cast on first...


Congratulations, and thank you very much for taking part!

P. S. The next campaign won’t be long in coming ;-)

Dankeschön, habe gerade Eure Email gelesen. Ich freue mich. :-)
