I just posted a discount coupon for my shamrock-themed patterns purchased through the Ravelry store. The theme is in keeping with celebrating St. Patrick’s Day (March 17) and thus the 17% discount.
But my motivation goes beyond just offering you savings, as my mood is somber in light of the awful devastation and human suffering in Japan. In the past, we’ve sometimes done special drives where a portion of pattern proceeds was donated to an organization I selected in support of a need. This time, I can see there will be so much need everywhere that I want to encourage you to help as you can, where you can, and I will do the same.
If you take advantage of the pattern discount and if you are so inclined, you might want to donate some or all of that savings to an organization of your choice to help Japan. So, if you were thinking about getting one or more of these patterns, now would be a good time.
This particular coupon discount only runs through March 17, but I will be donning my thinking cap for other follow-up discount coupons and patterns that may help you get HeartStrings patterns while still setting aside some of your savings to help Japan in the way you think best.
