Default Free Vintage shawl download?

Hi all,
Not too long ago, someone posted here requesting that people go to her
Vintage knitting book website, and fill out a survey, which I did.
However, My computer froze up mid-download, and I couldn't retrieve the
free patterns. Can anyone redirect me to that site? I have already
googled for it, and cannot find it.
TIA
Linda

Hi Linda,

Some of us took the survey and never got the free patterns that she offered. I
just checked google and here's the address if you want to try it
again.www.vintage-knitting-patterns.com.

wow...are those prices just for a download? that's a little steep if you
ask me. if they were original coies, that would be great, but not for a PDF
file! :P

Besides, isn't it a bit unethical to profit from a book that you had no hand
in producing? If it's copyright free, the authors' families arent' even
getting royalties...

apparently she obtained reprint rights...guess that makes it ok. too bad the
price is a bit steep right now, otherwise i would probably order something to
get that bonus #1. that is the only thing that really interests me. :-\

I just completed her survey. After you submit your survey you have to click
the link on the Thank You page to go back to the site. It then opens a new
window with the link to the download. Worked fine for me, just FYI.

Hi Nancy... well, I went there, did the survey TWICE, once with IE, once
with Netscape, and neither time had the link you mention. Guess I for one
am not meant to get the pattern, sniff sniff...

Well, I got it at once, and the patterns were beautiful.
Brought memories back!
But the prizes…!! No comment!

There's some nice ones here - no catches, just two nice shawls and a scarf.
I'm doing the daisy shawl, in a different yarn - it may take a long time!
