Angry Birds

ONCE UPON A TIME I found a pattern that I really liked, but I was saddened to learn that some not so nice people told the creative soul that developed the pattern that she couldn't sell her work.  I saw that others had tried to get her to share the patterns, but not willing to risk a potential legal battle, she refused time and again.  Alas, I was too late to buy the pattern.  (Great sadness.)

But the design was just too perfect, and not giving up I poked around... and finally I was able to gather all the patterns.  (Yeay!)  But, since I couldn't pay for these particular patterns, I found another way to reward  the talented writer because that was simply the right thing to do.

So I started this blog as a means to continue the Itsy Bitsy Spider Angry Bird legacy.

If you are interested in the angry bird crochet patterns and want to help, email me.

    Her birds were the best designed ones that I had come across. Like so many others, I was too late. I had entered her patterns into my "faves" and planned to get to them "soon", but by the time I was ready, she had just posted that they were no longer for sale :(
    I think it is wonderful that you have found a way to make sure she is still able to benefit from her amazing work & effort. I agree, it is the right thing to do :)

    I was also too late, but I'm going to try e-mailing you, even though this post was made months ago. Thanks for sharing this! I was wondering what had happened!

    I, too, was too late in getting these patterns. I would love to be able to make these for my nephews and son. How do I get these crocheting hands on these? Hopeful, Amy

    Yes, Karine I have access to them still. Email me at 8pawscrochet(at)Gmail.com and I'll send you instructions. I don't get anything out of it, but I do request donation be made to the designer.
