Something new

I have all these great ideas of things I want to try to crochet with. The first was beads. I think I was sucessful in one of my attempt. Still trying it with different type of yarn & beads. The last one I did didn't turn out well, but I'm learning from my mistakes.

Here are some pictures of my latest creation. A pink skully with beaded crochet flowers! What do you think?

Excited!

I'm so happy! I just got feedback from my 2nd sale and the love the hat! I've sold 3 hats so far and I'm thrilled. Nothing sold on Etsy though...there's lots of great stuff on there though. I"m kind of hoping something will sell soon on there or I think I may start wondering if it's worth it.

I've been a busy bee. Besides getting the last custom size hat out the door I've been working on a bunch of other stuff. Some turns out, some doesn't. I've started to attempt bead crocheting. I messed up but I know how to fix it now. So watch for some new beanie/flapper hats with beaded flowers!

I'd love to hear anyones comments on my stuff or ideas/suggestions on stuff you think I should try. Colour combos, etc. Leave me a comment!

Here's a picture of one of the beanie hats I've done:

Mittens

I finished these mitts with some yarn that Sydney picked out. No point in listing them now since Spring is just around the corner. She calls them sparkly mitts.

Baby Shawl

I never posted the final picture of the baby shawl I crocheted awhile ago - so here it is. It's pretty big - so I had a hard time getting it all in a shot! Measures 58" width wise & 29.5" in length.

Chirp chirp

Grumpy pirate

I just finished this sweater, well almost finished. I still need to sew the buttons on in the back. But someone won't take it off! She wants to keep it, because it's like her brothers.

A bit hard to tell in the picture but the skull/cross bone is a pale pink.

Cowl & Booties

One of a few knit cowls I've made. I originally made a bunch of adult ones and thought it would be perfect for kids since they wouldn't have to deal with the strangling hazard of a scarf.

Crochet cowgirl booties. These likely fit from 0-3mths (well, not quite 0mths, maybe 1-4mths actually)
