Check Out This Fun Giveaway

If your like me you may not have known that March is National Crochet Month.  What does that mean to you??  For the whole month of March many of the crochet blogs have free patterns and or giveaways.  I have had the best time going from  blog to blog checking them out. If you don't know where to start you can check out Crochetville for a list of designers with a direct link to their blog.

So as I was stumbling around I came across this great blog Keepsakes by Melissa.  They are giving away a $250 gift card.  All you have to for your chance to win is leave Melissa a comment on her post and share about it on your blog or post it to your Facebook page or Twitter or email.  Then just tell Melissa how helped spread the word and you are entered to win.  Can you imagine what you can do with $250.  I can see alot of new yarn in my future!!  Yay

Hurry though the deadline to enter is  March 8th.

Happy Blog Hopping!!

Nearing the Finish

As I told you a couple of weeks ago the finishing touches have taken me longer than I had ever thought they would to get my second Etsy shop up and running.  My new goal was to open on Sunday but I jumped the gun and actually opened with three items on Friday.  I don't know why I didn't do that a long time ago but I guess that's the old retailer in me. I felt that I should have all of my items because I might miss an opportunity to sell one of them.
I thought you might like to see a preview of a few of my items.  So here is the first item that I listed:

I loved this pattern with the ribbed brim in the back.  It just seems to add something extra.  I added ribbon in the front because I felt it looked a little plain.  It was designed by Alena Byers.  You can find the free pattern here on Raverly.  Alena also has an Etsy Shop with her patterns for sale but this is not one of them.

I hope you will take the time to check out my shop and let me know what you think.  

~Have a great night and enjoy the rest of your weekend!!
