Its HERE!! It arrived this morning!! *happy dance*

I'm not sure if I post this here or someplace else but this seemed like the logical place. Just let me know if I need to post this someplace else if I'm mistaken..

I have NO idea what I'll make yet. I'm thinking maybe Irish Crochet.. whatcha' think?

It's 1000 yards of size 10 crochet thread dyed in lovely greens. She used procion dyes which are totally safe for baby's skin. Awww... 

Thanks SO SO much SuperHooker! The thread is lovely and I'm so glad its finally here so I can make something! W00t! What that will be.. I have no idea. lol


Thanks again to everyone who took the time to vote for me. I loved particpating and seeing the other entries come in one by one. Then winning was a total shock and I was so proud. And now to receive this beautiful prize SuperHooker worked so hard on..  its just amazing. I couldn't be happier..


Thank you a million times.. thank you.. 

Welcome to Craftster!



So yup.. no hesitation.. I immediatly hit 'THIS ROCKS'.. cause it does.. lucky guy..

No.. I'm afraid not.
That pattern is currently being tested but when all the booboos are ironed out it will be available however I won't be posting the pattern on the forum but it will be available elsewhere...

[Well I decided to post the flower pattern, again this is just for the very smallest flower (I used various sizes to make the flowers for the hat and booties) over in the questions and discussions section located HERE.So please post any mistakes or what not there instead if you don't mind.]

Thanks very much!!

Again I have to say its a very quick and simple pattern. I just want someone else to go over it real quick...

I actually posted this pattern here but I thought maybe it needed its own thread(topic.) 

I'm working on writing up the pattern(s) for my flowers I made for the baby hats here. Would someone want to test out this initial pattern for me? Its totally free and I'll be giving out the completed flower pattern(s) when I'm done (hopefully booboo free.)
Here's the flower in its various sizes used for the twin's set I made not long ago.

This is just the very smallest flower. It doesn't take long AT ALL to make and gauge, etc. shouldn't matter...however I'd recommend making it a little bit loose if you're a tight crocheter like me.

This flower pattern is free to make, free to sell for small home business however DO NOT DISTRIBUTE THIS PATTERN PLEASE.

[ALMOST FORGOT:]

I do! (Already replied on deviant art! Didn't realize you'd posted here also! lol)
I need one more since I still haven't heard back from another person who asked about it. Anywho so yes I have one now.. I'd like another... though my helper is doing a wonderful job and I just don't think I could have caught the errors she's found without her help. I just can't thank her enough for her help...
Now if only I didn't feel so guilty every time she finds a mistake! haha

Well I hate replying when I was the last to reply BUT.. I was asked by a few people to give notice when pattern testing positions came available. I've posted this on the first post but just to be sure no one misses it.. (because I'm desperate for help to be honest lol)..

. . . . . .

First off I was completely shocked I won the shell stitch challenge! I'm currently waiting with baited breath for superhooker's wonderful custom dyed yarn thread for my prize. *Glee!* (I'll post pics of the thread just as soon as it arrives! Thanks again to superhooker for going to so much trouble!) As many of your know my post here features the bonnets and also booties from the set I entered for the challenge. Several people asked if patterns would be made available and that they would like to test them. Well I do hope the offer still stands.. lol

If you ARE interested in helping test these patterns please PM me for further information.


Thanks again for all the support and encouragement! It was an honor having won but more so it felt really wonderful just taking part.

. . . . . .

Oh and the FLOWERS.. *slaps forehead* man I've been so busy I keep forgetting to write up the pattern(s) for them long hand being they are just scribbled down in rough sketch symbols at the moment. I will be posting those at some point.. probably in a separate thread. They could be used for a variety of things and are actually very very easy to make..

Ooo! My favorite color! I love this.. very pretty.. I'll have to go have a peek at the pattern.. hehe

Well for anyone popping in I just wanted to say thank you once again and also to let anyone interested to know I've finally completed writing up the patterns for both the booties and the bonnet! Yeah! If you are interested in helping test these patterns please stop by my deviant art account for further information.
Oh and if you have a deviant art account go ahead and add me and let me know so I can add you back! 

Oh and I'll be posting some pics of the superhooker's wonderful custom dyed thread ASAP. I'm so excited! I can't wait until it gets here but.. it maybe be a little while.. we'll see. *fingers crossed* I know it will be wonderful!

Love it! Gosh if I had a baby girl I would love something like this for the nursey! Its so adorable!
