Thank you so much. I loved this pattern when I saw it on your blog & Craftster. You are such a sweetie to share it. I am so appreciative. I never heard of the game until now. I can't wait to make these little guys.

You are so wonderful to share your patterns like this. I fell in love with your piggies in their box when I first saw them, and now I'll be able to make my own.
Thankyou :-))

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
I've been in love since I saw these featured on Craftster. I'm just thrilled that you released the pattern and over the moon that it is for free!
I've been commited to making a lot of my holiday gifts this year and this will be perfect for my nieces!
Thanks again! Can you add a button so we can make a donation if we are so inclined? I would love to be able to toss you a couple in exchange for all the great patterns (nevermind the good tips and an all over great blog) you've posted here for free!

Thank you!
I came across your blog a short while ago, (I have only just learnt how to crochet this summer) and so far I have made an Amelia bag for my friend, 3 tree frogs and the toads for my kids and about to start the acorn bag for my sister in law who is an avid sock knitter - all for christmas, and now will just HAVE TO DO the piggies for my brother and another friend to add to the handmade kiss-mass list! and its all thanks to you :)

Thanks so much for this pattern! i might be able to get a few pass the pigs sets done in time for christmas. And I can't believe it was free - you are too generous!
Posted by: karrie | November 26, 2008 at 09:44 PM
Okay, I'm happy as a pig in mud right now!!!!!! If I knew you I'd kiss you, but since I don't I hope a simple THANK YOU will suffice?
