7 facts about me that you might not know...

I just finished reading the blog of Paige, the owner of a local shop called hodge podge and she wrote 7 interesting things about herself, and I decided that I like the idea and wanted to share some things about myself too. Fact #1 I am inspired by things that surround me. Many of my crochet creations are inspired by what I see both online or in the world surrounding me. For example my zebra hat, I see so many hats with ears, but which hat has a tail? Fact #2 I love to give my crochet items away to friends. I spend a lot of time crocheting and i end up giving away more than I sell. My reason, you wonder? I love seeing people appreciate my work and the happiness it gives them. Fact #3 I enjoy being crazy. I don't always fit the standard normal description and prefer to just be me. Fact#4 I spend more time crocheting than I do anything else. I can honestly say when I am in a crochet rut (mood), I end up taking a hook and yarn everywhere I go with the exception of the bathroom. Fact#5 I love making items that are different. I love things that not everyone creates. I prefer making things that one does not commonly see, such as a summer beanie, or a whale that rattles and a turtle that squeaks. Fact #6 Tea, I LOVE tea. I would probably die if someone told me I could never drink tea again. Fact#7 I am German. Not the i have German in me but I actually am from Germany and I love it. I am actually in the process of becoming a German teacher.

It has once again been way too long..

I need really make sure I maintain this blog a lot more than I do. I will get better I promise. I have been crocheting up quite a storm and have been focusing on cotton products for the summer, such as cotton beanies and market bags.

I have also made some fun hats that can be used by both adults and children.
Photo update will follow.

Update

Hello friends, followers and family

A lot has happened in the last few weeks and I have been super buys. My etsy store is filled up with 70 items. Everything from shower items to winter weather wear. I have added some blankets that I made a while ago and just never put up.

Not store related but crochet related I have made several baby toys for my cousin who is expecting her first child. Her little Sternchen.

The first toy being a caterpillar that functions as a squeaker and a rattle, just a general noise maker.


a squeaky turtle



a rattle whale



and last but not least a turtle that is super cute and fluffy

October

So we have hit fall and it is becoming chilly around here. We do still have some days in the 80s but most days are cooler now. Sometimes one even has to wear a hat and scarf. :D I am in the process of making a whole bunch of them so if you need any just let me know and I will whip one up for you.
