wool yarns!


These are the yarns that I have available right now. They are all wool. They are fun yarns and I am excited about starting on some more crocheted soakers.
I have gotten my Nifty Knickers pattern all written up and tested by a few folks. I am excited about taking it to the next level and figuring out the math to make it different sizes -
:( not really I hate math! That is the next step though so ... bring on the math! Ahhh!

I was featured today!!!!

How exciting. My cute little trainers were featured today on etsy. I am so excited that they thought they were cute enough to go into the treasury. It was so fun to get the convo and read that my trainers had been picked. There are lots of other adorable items in the feature too. They feature will only be there until March 11th (wed.) at 12:45 a.m. So, if you want to see it you better hurry! http://www.etsy.com/treasury_list.php?room_id=44875

I made more diapers on Sat. i have to finish putting snaps on them, and then i need to take pictures. I am excited to list them, they are adorable fabrics.

I had a lady critique my shop for me this is where it is if you are interested
http://etcommeca.tumblr.com/
Basically she suggested I not be so wordy in my titles and my descriptions. I think that as soon as I get my webpage all done I will link to it and cut out a lot of the technical info I have on my descriptions.
She liked my pictures and suggested I change my banner to something more simple along with the avatar. I just need to figure out how. If you have any ideas send them this way. She suggested something sewing or a pict of my notions or something simple like that.
So, I am excited. I also had a lady that wants me to make some blankets for her organic baby bedding shop. that will be fun!
Alot of good things are happening right now. I am so blessed!

I won!!!

So I was perusing etsy today looking for patterns and I bought a few from a gal. She told me I was the person who bought her 1,000 item and so I got to spend $50 on her etsy shop. I had a blast looking though her patterns and yarns. I am excited to make some of these and sell them. You can look for them to come soon. I am also working on better pictures. We'll see where that takes us.


Also I have been working on making up a few of my own patterns. Gotta find a few testers for them and then I will sell them too!

all this fun!

Shopping Day!

I am off to do a little shopping for some new sweaters. I am excited to see what i find, also I am going to look for some cute neutral fabrics for my diapers. I had a gal ask me if i had any so she could buy some diapers and be able to use them for both a boy and a girl. Wish me luck!

Lead Testing! AHHHHHH!

So there is good news today! The CPSC grants one year stay on the lead testing requirments. Here is a link to an article about it. http://www.etsy.com/forums_thread.php?thread_id=6022029&page=1

My thought on this run deep, so just a few....
1. Two people are deciding the fate of all WAHMS, and many small businesses - there is something wrong with that!

2. If 90% of the lead tainted toys come from on place-I'm not naming countries- then you would think to solve the problem you would place testing requirements on them and not all the good Americans that are trying to either help make a living or to pay for a hobby that they love.

3. Only two people really!!!!!

In the mean time there will be more items coming from my nook for the next year. I am looking forward to the "Nifty Nappy"-the new name for my diapers. Cute huh?

Thanks for visiting my Nook!
