Ohhh man! These are all items old enough for Purplekittyyarns.com to republish. I wonder how many are eligible...

That I don't know. How would you find out?

I think a hunt around the site to relocate their contact info would be needed but I do know they provide an address to ship things directly to them to be republished. but, I wonder if they would accept an affiliate who has a wonderful scanner.

Several of the items I have won, I intend to scan in order to pass copies to the people I out bid. I know how important the items I pick generally would be to make and sell for my co-op non-profit so I often assume people may be trying to get them for potential sales.

That would be something to think about & check into. Are you bidding on them? There are some fabulous patterns in these books. I have others & had a hard time deciding which ones to place in auction.

i have my eye on this- but if it goes to high I will let it be.These older patterns can be difficult to read but of course are still tempting.

I know what you mean, I've had to let a lot of items go because they went to high.

I love older patterns. these are great! But yeah, older patterns are harder to read. I've only made one thing from an older pattern book, and I had to chart it out on graph paper before i made it, lol!
