Friday Contest

I know that all I have posted lately is contests, and I promise to do some different posts soon.  But for now it is Friday, so let's have a contest!

I will give one person their choice of any pdf pattern on my site, bellacrochet.com. In addition, I will give them a copy of my "Butterflies and Roses Pineapple Doilies" pdf pattern set, some of which are pictured in this post. You can see the rest here:
 I will select the winner at random, and send out the patterns in the morning (Saturday.) 
I will post the name of the winner here, so be sure to check back in the morning to see if you won.

Also, if you post anonymously, please be sure I have a way to identify you (at least give your first name or a nick name in your comment; I have no way of knowing who is posting.)
To enter, just leave a comment answering this question: 
What is the one thing you love most about crochet?


This contest is now closed. 
Please check back next Friday for my weekly contest.

  14. I like crocheting because so many beautiful things can be made and given as a gift of love for someone you love or just to give something to someone just to show you care. Last but not least something you made for yourself that you just love snd sdmire and to see or hear the reactions of others. Crocheting is a beautiful gift from God!!

  17. Crochet is my relief and my relaxation, I am handicapped and unable to walk and my crocheting is my ability to "walk" in my mind. I love it and enjoying seeing just a simple ball of yarn or thread turn into something pretty maybe even beautiful! I love the textures and what anyone can do with yarn and a hook!

  26. Crocheting is a great way to relax! I also love the fact that no machine could ever make a crochet stitch, so if it's crocheted you know it was made by hand. Giving crocheted gifts to my friends is one way I can show them how special they are to me :)
