So Far in the New Year...


More gloves! Simple change from making the main color purple to light grey... big difference though.

Also, I now have a pattern for small and medium/large gloves too... yay!

NEW hat... A spiral gnome inspired hat... super easy to make. I want to try it with 3 colors next

This is me, spending too much time on color combos. I'm odd, my favorite part is putting the colors together in different combinations. I've photographed 25 color ways. Ultimately, I'd like for customers to be able to choose from these instead of making the same hats over and over. I'm obsessive over color. Can you tell?

Color: Chartreuse Buzzard. Another order from a friend who happens to be a wonderful photographer.

Custom order: BIG eyes. 6-12 month hat. She wanted them bigger, and this is what I came up with. I like it, but will offer both big and small eyes still.

9-18 month hat and scarf set in THE most popular color way, Sophia. I omitted the white in the hat for these smaller sizes, I think it pops the eyes a bit more. Also GOOD NEWS, I came up with an all new pattern that may work nicely into a written pattern! I'm motivated to make a comprehensive pattern for this hat (and scarf too if need be) Stay tuned...

And saving the best for last, I started making crocheted hearts for Valentines day again. And following suit, it's too late to actually sell anything in time for the big day of celebrating hearts. It dawned on me to make some into earring last night after I used a fabric stiffener on them, but am not worried about selling these cuz they are kind of my new favorite thing, other than my new tunic top of course... and my darling boy, and extraordinary husband. I have lots of my favorite list at the moment.
