If  you want the pattern.. it is HERE!!

Cloud 9 Slippers.. newest project

I am currently working on this pattern. finished one slipper.. now working on the other.. for some reason the bottom is giving me problems.. probably because of the type of yarn.. I am using Homespun and it isnt one of my favorite yarns.. sorry to say.. but it is thick and cushiony. which is what she wanted..

Here is the pattern..

How to get a discount from my store!!

One of my biggest problems is taking photos.. for some reason I have difficulty taking photos of my items.. so I decided to get the help of my customers.. if you buy an item that I want a special photo of and you take it for me.. and send it and allow me to use it for my sales.. I will refund you 10 - 15% of the item's cost.. this will only be for people I ask for photos from.. this isnt for past orders.. only for any orders from Jan 2016 on..

If you just send me a photo of my items in use.. I will send you a discount of $2 off your next time.. up to $10 in cost total.. this discount can be used on any order.. up to 50% of the item.. This on the other hand are for any items you have bought off of me.. and you send starting now..

Mystic Mermaid Cocoon Finished!!

Just finished this.. made in Simply Soft Oceana color.. this will fit a Newborn to 3 months.. and I am putting it up for sale for $45.  First it will go on sale on my Facebook page and other Facebook pages.. then on Etsy.. and yes I am taking custom orders..

Pattern is from: B Hooked Crochet

Postage Prices are going up..

Sad to say.. postage prices are going up.. and I will have to raise my postage prices to cover them.. as much as I dont want to.. so starting on January 16th all my postage rates will go up $.10 to cover the increase.. any orders directly ordered from Etsy will stay the same postage rate up until January 16th..

The other KrissKross Dishclothes..

These are the ones I just also finished.. nice and bright.. I do like making these.. probably one of my favorite dishcloth patterns.. Hopefully I will have more pictures to show you in the next day or so..

Finished my newest order.. of KrissKross Dishclothes..

I finally finished and mailed this order.. wanted you to see them.. since they are new colors..

Today I will show you the Blue Mint and white ones.. and tomorrow I will show you the Watermelon and white ones..

I am currently working on the Mystic Mermaid Cocoon.. I got most of the body done.. so should have some pictures done in a day or so..

Mine is made of Oceana Simply Soft yarn.. perfect for this I think..

Really cold today..

Actually the coldest we have had yet this winter.. hence I am staying in today.. lol! I have alot to keep me busy at home with sales stuff and orders.. I am still working on the last of the dishclothes.. hopefully I have enough white to finish it off tonight.. If not, I will have to get out this week to pick up more Simply Soft White..

Then either way my next item is to finish off a mermaid cocoon I am making.. more on this tomorrow.. smile.. off to work on sales stuff on Facebook..

Mermaid Tail Blanket

I got the pictures from the lady who bought the mermaid tail blanket from me.. and wanted you to see them.. her pictures are much nicer than mine.. you can clearly see the buttons on this.. I make it so you can button it up.. or just also use as a blanket too..

I finally decided on prices.. small child - $55, medium child - $65, older child to teen $75 and up.. I will put up measurements a bit later.. 

Happy New Years..

Check tomorrow for photos of the Mermaid Tail Blanket that I made before Christmas..
