Going Professional
YAY! I’ve received my final package from the wonderful Joan(http://bitsycreations.etsy.com) with my brand new avatars, logo, banner, and business card. Now I can go to WAMP with my full armoire.
The Easter holiday was spent with toooo much knitting instead of crocheting for the fair.
I wanted to finish the Jane crossover sweater from Perl Grey Studios, but I remembered that only one half of the front is missing. WRONG. Both. I was knitting like a banshee, but could not finish it. On Monday I felt too guilty, and switched to crochet, and finishing off the crocheted pieces. I did quite well, finished three necklaces, and three bracelets. And I even crocheted a few more inches on a new project.
Time flew, and I’m back to work today. I can’t wait to quit this job, and do what I really want to do.
If you are interested in bead-crochet, I highly recommend the ultimate, the one and only complete bead-crochet site: www.beadcrochet.com, from the wonderful Beadwrangler.
I’ve learned the most from this site. And if you want inspiration for your future work, you must check out this great German site: www.perlenhaekeln.de . This site contains the most amazing library of bead-crochet patterns, for absolutely free!
I also love to browse Etsy for inspiration. Not only the beadworks, or bead-crochet, but all the fine jewellery one can find there. And so many other things! I was really tempted once to order some cupcakes from the US, they were looking so fantastic! I could feel it in my mouth…. Then I thought of the distance, and the postal services, and said naaaaah.
I guess you are right, I’m a shop-a-holic, especially when it comes to online shopping. No wonder. What is more exciting than seeing a whole world of goodies, delivered to your door?

Therefore, what I started out to do is not what I ended up doing. I should have paid more attention when I bought...... -

Glass knitting needles These are intriguing to me. I’ve never seen them in person or used them, but they appeal to my aesthetic nature. I don’t know how practical they are. They might be aesthetically pleasing, but annoying to use. What do you think? Have you ever seen or used them? Do they...... -
Beading I enjoy beading now, better than any of the other crafts I've done or am doing. I sort of rotate with some knitting at the moment, but beading is my fun-creative-thing. Like any craft (except for knitting or cross stitch or needlepoint where you buy by projects) there is a...... -
