View this email in your browser BIG NEWS! WootCrafts is getting a website!  I’m currently going through building the website, so be on the lookout for that announcement. One thing to note with that is that emails associated with WootCrafts will now change to “@WootCrafts.com”. The next edition of the newsletter will come from Newsletter@WootCrafts.com. The other two addresses of importance are TechEditing@WootCrafts.com & info@WootCrafts.com. All emails still come to me, but this makes expansion a little easier in the long run. My Gmail is still active, and for now all G-Doc edits will show from the Gmail address until I figure it out otherwise, haha. I’m so excited for this growth!  May was a busy month for a few designers. While I took a couple of weeks off for medical treatment, they kept plugging away on their patterns. Three new patterns were released into the wild this month! Two patterns are still in active testing, and I’m helping moderate those. One new edit occurred, is one of three in testing. I began moderating a chat for another designer, and I am still working on the UMAL. One pattern has been completed through final testing and is awaiting release. I’m officially a third of the way to my end-of-year goal at the halfway point of the year.  CONGRATULATIONS to Katherine for releasing the Perfectly Bobbly Socks! These socks are knit cuff down, and there is no limit to the color combination! One tester made scrappy socks and made each row of bobbles a different color. These are the cutest shorty socks that show some sass above the tops of your shoes. Go snag these for the cutest pizzazz for your ankles!  Follow Katherine on IG Purchase Perfectly Bobbly Socks via Etsy Purchase Perfectly Bobbly Sock via RAVELRY CONGRATULATIONS to Laura for releasing the Captiva Crop! I am so honored to be a part of Laura’s first designed pattern. This oversized crop top is the perfect staple, made out of fingering weight yarn. A lot of people fell for the slip stitch detail, but my favorite detail is actually the bottom hem. It reminds me so much of the ocean. Scurry over and snag up a copy of the pattern for the summer!  Follow Laura on IG Get the Captiva via Etsy Get the Captiva via Threadfolio Get the Captiva via RAVELRY CONGRATULATIONS to Roeska for releasing the Tunisian Summer Peplum Top! What would Tunisian Tuesday be without a Tunisian pattern release announcement? This is a great flirty, sexy V-neck, summer top that can be dressed up or dressed down. All of the tester versions were amazing! You can practice Tunisian in the round, in a meditative stitch pattern and end up with a super great top out of it!
