Glittens

After I blogged last night. i got motivated and finished Lees gloves. (a handicapped man from my work) They came out great. hodges from my work calls them "glittens" because they are glove/mittens! Corny, i know, but yet so catchy!  I cant wait to make more like them! they do take more thought and time so they will be double the price of my fingerless gloves but i think they are much more useful for the winter time since it give u the option to go fingerless!

back on track

    i got together with Shamby and we talked about the website a little bit.  she was positive about the progress we've both made but brought up the fact that were both learning the best ways to make and/or sell everything. now that i get an extra day off each week i can put more time into my craft. i really want to work on more sweaters and hats. i know i said i wasn't good at hats before but i guess ive gotten better over time. i have a good assortment of gloves already and 2 scarfs.plus those are quick to make so if the 2 sell i can make one before the person even receives the last one!
    im super happy with everything thing ive made so far and this time if i dont like it right off the bat i start over until im impressed with it.i rushed it with a few of the shirts in the summer for the photo shoot and i dont like them that much now and i have to go through them and waste more time on them, making them less profitable to me. time = money.im just really happy that Shamby really likes everything ive made and that she still thinks were moving in the right direction too.  i felt my doubts for a moment when i got so worn out from working so much. but now that im getting a steady balance in my life i can afford to dedicate a few hours a week to crochet. and not feel over whelmed because i love money but my main objective is to always have fun doing it. as soon as it becomes a chore i can not bring myself to pick up the yarn and crochet.
