Breaking News!

Posted on 2:58 PM by fbdfbfb

Well, here is my news. I've been given the chance to be part of the Crochet Spot team as one of the crochet professionals! Now you can find me there once a week (at least for now) with a new pattern. I have so many ideas. I hope I can pull them off. But, you never know until you try.

For a while now I have been looking for a means of making some money, at least to fund my yarn obsession. I've tried to get an Etsy shop going, and I'm still going to; I'm just getting my ducks in a row. I'm hoping, with a little extra money, I'll be able to get bigger with my projects and branch out a little. I have a number of sweater patterns I want to try but haven't wanted Mum to have to buy the yarn for me. She says its no problem, but I'd feel better if I could pay for my hobbies. Unfortunately, my writing hasn't made it big yet. But be patient, it will. ;)

With St. Patrick's Day and Easter coming up I've been mulling over some seasonal patterns but am not sure just yet what I will do. Any suggestions? As I said in my last post, I am making Twinkie Chan's Jelly Bean Scarf, but whilst making the cute and colorful jelly beans I had an inspiration. What about making a jelly bean blanket. Crochet simple white or cream motifs and sew the jelly beans to the tops in a topsy turvy style! Kids would definitely love this. I might get around to it someday. Never know.

Thanks for reading! I just wanted to shout out my good news. Until next time...
