Happy September! I have absolutely no clue where August went. Poof and the worst of summer is gone thank goodness. 

I do know that some lovely patterns were released - the That's 70's Pullover by InchWormCrafts, the Flirty V by NoHooksGiven, and the Brigitte by Yarnfixation.

I had the pleasure to begin working with a new designer this month, and that pattern has gone into test. I also have three other designers start new tests this month, while one put the finishing touches on another. 

I'm over halfway to my pattern publishing goal, and I'm excited to see if it can be met by the end of the year. Next month is my one-year anniversary of being an official tech editor, and I'm so excited in what I've accomplished this year. I'd like to do a giveaway, so please let me know if you have any ideas.
Y'all, the Brigitte is an amazing top! Tunisian Crochet is GREAT for beginners! Size inclusive, and absolutely amazing! You should check out the hashtag - #BrigitteTee - to see all of the amazing versions!

Did I mention this was a collaboration with @fuzzywhatknots, and there are some kits?!? Y'all, all of the testers RAVED about how awesome this yarn was! Go run to Teresa's page and snag one!
 
Is this enough for you to jump on the Tunisian train yet?
The Everything's Pine Tank is live! It's a bottom-up, fully customizable, size-inclusive top. The design allows for a different cup or back coverage based on your preference. It's got the best lace design along the bottom. My favorite part? It's reversible! You can wear the v-neck in the front or back.

Laura's testers knocked it out of the park with all of the color combinations on this! Check the hashtag - #EverythingsPineTank - if you don't believe me! So what colors are you going to choose?
If you ever need someone to talk to about a design idea, help with reviewing a submission, or working through the design process prior to going to the publication tech editor, I'm here to help you in any way I can to embrace your dream of being in print! 
     Also, if you see any submission calls anywhere, feel free to shoot me an email or a DM and let me know so that I can include it in the next newsletter!
