Yesterday at noon I published my And Then There Were Mitts pattern on Ravelry. I decided to make them free for 2 days (Dec 9-11). Usually when I've done that in the past, there are perhaps 2-300 individual downloads.
Less than 24 hours later ATTWM is at 3700! And growing. And look what happened:
That's me at #1---->
#1 out of the 146,372 patterns available on Ravelry!
Crazy!
