Giveaways
If I were to do a giveaway for my site. Do you think that something I have made would attract people or would it be better to do supplies... like yarn, hooks, or magazine.... or maybe a hook case. I would rather make something bc it would be cheaper but I wonder if it would actually bring new viewers since my audience can crochet lol

Hi! A give away is a fabulous idea! I think it should be something that a person wouldn't want to make themself! Perhaps an intricate patterned shawl? I know I would like something like that-and probably wouldn't make for myself!

Don't think so
I'm sorry, if I made a shawl, I could never give it away. It takes me so long to complete things like that, I want to keep it for myself.
Maybe I'm selfish. I could do the books, yarn etc.
Am I bad?

I think that supplies would be a great idea with a purchase. Small ready made items would be ok too. Just my thoughts.

That sounds good. You could give away small things that you have made. I know I would like supplies, (my husband is lol) as if I don't have enough. If you could only see my sewing and craft room.

I guess I'm selfish too! As everybody is saying supplies would work too! A shawl was just a thought! But maybe you could find some little thing to make that somebody wouldn't make for themself! Just had a thought-how about some kind of journal-maybe make a cover for an ordinary notebook? I know I can never have too many notebooks/journals!

Being a pattern and yarn hoarder myself, I think a free pattern or a ball of yarn would be a great idea....

A tote, an ami, a handmade potholder, a set of coasters etc. are nice if you want to give away hand made items. Soft grip crochet hooks or hooks with polymer covered handles are nice. You can never have enough hooks. (I prefer Susan Bates style hooks.) I don't know what type of site you have or what you sell on your site. Crochet or knit patterns are nice as well as supplies. Other craft items would also be nice. You can create a kit to make something small along with the pattern. Just list what you are giving away then the people interested in it will sign up.
