I checked my supplies and understood that I need going shopping. I’ll try to find a pale blue or maybe navy blue or somewhat shade of blue colour ribbon for this new crochet collar. By the way, I like this pattern so much that I started a new choker, this time of red yarn, so I need a bright red colour ribbon too.
I have so many new items started, but what can I do if I have a million ideas in my head? Some time ago, I decided to crochet a new/old collar – new by its colour and known by the pattern. I have one on LaceCrochetFinds in cream colour, and a new one is in a pale blue. I’d also like to crochet cuffs to it, but as far I can’t come up with fastening. The collar tied with satin ribbon, but what about the cuffs? Maybe I need to change the design and use a pearl button instead. By the way, this design is one of my favourites.
Etsy has died totally, but I am trying to add new items as far as I can. Crocheting this ruffle collar took me a lot of time because of a tiny thread (DMC No 20) and a tiny hook – Clover No 1. Fortunately, I am a stubborn person, so I finished it. All I need now is to fasten the collar and iron it. Then, of course, I show it to you 🙂
Here it is: crochet Pumpkin garland with green leaves at CrochetCabinet Craft https://www.etsy.com/listing/1028753330/crochet-pumpkin-garland-thanksgiving?ref=shop_home_active_1
New crochet black choker with claret colour satin ribbon at LaceCrochetFinds this evening.
My new Pumpkin garland is growing up slowly. Firstly I was planning to make the bunting only from plane pumpkins, but it seems that something is missing here. So I added a simple crochet leaf but that wasn’t enough, so I made up a leaf with a tendril and now I am satisfied with it. It’s bright and funny and is the best creation for Thanksgiving Day home decoration.
It’s hard to describe the feeling of joy that comes over you when you receive a new review of your product. You are happy because someone loves what you have created and made with your hands. In this case, the feedback was accompanied by a text message stating that the garland is now decorating the entrance to your customer’s house. And you sit there all happy, looking at a map of the world and imagining this house in Smyrna, Georgia in America and the people who live in it and watch your work every day. And you are convinced once again that you are doing everything right! Lori, thank you for these kind words and Sunday magic mood!
One of the last orders in the shop – a high neck collar, of which I am particularly proud. I created it myself – from beginning to end, not basing on a ready-made pattern. This is a new product, recently placed in the shop. The order flew to America, to the town of Halladay, Utah. This is the first time I have shipped to this state and I am curious how long it will take for the package to reach the customer. Fingers crossed for the customer will be happy with her purchase.
One of the most popular items at my shop is dark red or burgundy colour choker. It was a custom order about the length and yesterday it was despatched to California, San Jose – the cultural, financial and political centre of Silicon Valley and the largest city in Northern California. All these facts are new to me. So I’d like to emphasize that my shops give me the best geography lessons.
(The real colour of the choker is in the second picture).
Etsy was way to much slow down last time. This is not only my opinion, however, sellers from different countries around the world are also debating on this problem. There is no reason to panic, claim well-selling shops owners, people just missed real shopping, have to pay their taxes, summer came at least etc. So I was surprised when 3 orders jumped into my cart what means that I am very busy this weekend. One of them is almost ready and this is a dark red or burgundy colour Victorian-style crochet choker – the hardest for taking photo listing.
