Been a While

No following here, so I am not that concerned. However, I have created another pattern for a felted purse. This is a backpack purse that automatically closes when you put it on your back. I like that idea for security purposes. So here is a picture of it.

Now, I am still undecided about charging for patterns. I have had lots of people asking me lately about it and some say I should at least charge a little bit. Haven't decided yet since I am so torn. But I still will teach my classes for any of my patterns at $10 per person per session. Sessions run from 1-2 hours depending on he day/time/project. Same with the number of sessions to complete a pattern. But when compared to other classes at yarn stores, etc. everyone tells me this is cheap!

Felted Purse Class

I have been asked by several people to do a felted purse class. So I thought I would offer it out to the Universe.

The dimensions are 8 1/2 x 5 x 6 1/2 (height, which can be increased) with straps made to desired length.

When: Saturday, August 8th from 1:30 to 3pm.

Where: Starbuck’s on HWY 34 and I-25, in Loveland, Colorado

Cost: $10

The class will take about 1.5 hours and will include I-Cord, the basic bag directions, and tips for felting. If you are interested, please let me know so I have a head count. You will get information on materials once you confirm and a pattern on the day of the class. Thanks!

Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend

So I named this pattern. DH took the picture so I apologize for the quality. He isn't always a willing participant in taking them and does a fairly poor job. I haven't blocked it yet either, but I wanted to show it off. I am quite happy with it and can't wait for others to begin knitting it as well. I already have 3 people signed up to do this top as a class. :)

Raglan Top...coming along

The raglan top I created for a new class is coming along well. I have finished the sleeves and am very pleased with my results. I just have to finish off the bottom of this top and I will post it for all to see. Then, I will probably finish off the 3rd Easy Stripe Sweater before casting on another original summer top design that I have already mapped out in my head. Exciting!

Easy Stripe Sweater Pattern

I have made 2 of these, am working on my third, and have now had 3 other people make sweaters from this pattern. The one girl liked it so much she is making a second one with some modifications. We will be posting pictures of all the different ones on Ravelry.com but in the mean time, here are the pictures of the two I made.

New Raglan Style Top - Class Announcement

I am currently working on a new 1/2 to 3/4 sleeve top that can be done in cotton or wool blend for spring/summer/fall, depending on your choice. It is a top down Raglan style top with some very cute design features which make it perfect for a solid color yarn. Like all my patterns, this is done in the round and is seamless. I will be posting a picture soon.

The plan is to start this new class project on Sunday, April 5th. The pattern will not be released until June, so if you want to be one of the first, let me know and you can join the class. If you can't meet on the first day and want to do this pattern, just let me know and we can schedule other times to meet.
