two months (or so) on etsy


I have been a little crochet obsessed lately. If you know me, then you've probably already seen these on Facebook, but, just because I can, I'm sharing some pictures of what I've been up to lately.





My etsy shop has been open for a couple of months and I'll say I've been pleasantly surprised with the number of orders. Just enough to keep a little busy, but not enough to get stressed, and with enough free time to work on new things.

Of course, now I'm running out of cold weather...wait! That's terrible advertisement. There is plenty of cool weather left, AND who says hats are only for cold weather?!? And babies are born all the time, so buy that baby hat for your sister, your friend, yourself, whomever is having a baby...just order a few sizes too big so it will fit this fall.




If this looks like a post of shameless self-promotion, that's because it is. I'm also going to ask a little favor of you. If you're on Facebook, and you haven't already done so, will you please click over and "like" my page. You can click here. I think it would be fun to hit 100 fans. Then you can hide me from your news feed. I do my best to not overload your feed with a bunch of stuff you don't want to see, so I would really rather you didn't hide me, but life gets cluttered sometimes and well, I understand.





Okay, end of self-promoting crochet campaign. Just one more thing ONLY if you have time...leave a comment down below telling me, what's your favorite item, what would you like to see more of, or what's your favorite accessory for spring/summer/fall/winter. You're awesome.

And the links, just one more time in case you missed them above:

i finally did it

For more than two years, I have toyed with the idea of opening an Etsy store. I finally did it. So, in a shameless act of self-promotion, I'm plugging my store today.



It is pretty bare at the moment, but I'm working hard at finishing up a few custom orders so I can get more Ready To Ship items loaded up. It's a little exciting and a little overwhelming at the same time.

Cute & cozy headbands - ready to ship


I'm surely not setting out to make a fortune on crochet. I'm hoping to cover the costs of my strange yarn addiction, and maybe earn a little extra to stash away for my photography obsession. At this point, I have no idea where I'm headed, but I'm sure time will tell.

Adult women's size newsboy - custom made in a variety of colors
Textured sherpa with earflaps - sizes newborn to adult - will be added soon


If you get a chance, check it out and let me know what you think. I still have quite a few things to add including kid size beanies, newborn hats, and a few more adult size options. And I already have ideas for spring and summer, including a farmer's market tote bag and cute, flowery headbands.

So, if you find yourself in need of something warm and cute to put on your head this winter, you know where to go.
