My scarlet crochet gloves were featured on the Etsy blog yesterday ^_^ I was told this by a lovely buyer who had found my store through the article- yay!
They were in this Travelogue article under the Melbourne section. There are a lot of other lovely items in this list too!
This is very exciting because thousands of people read the Storque so it means a lot of people visit your shop who wouldn't normally find it. Was a lovely surprise as I hadn't had any etsy features until now.

Hooray! It's done! One of the reasons I have been so quiet of late. As promised, my newest (Nintendo related) project! A rug based on the Mario pixelated mushroom ^_^
The original awesome project upon which this one is styled is EnemyAirship's 'Giant 7x7ft 8-bit Raccoon Mario rug' which everyone should see!

Pattern for squares
1) chain 6 and join ends of chain
2) chain2 to raise row height, dc2 in centre of circle, chain3, ~dc3 in centre of circle, chain3~ 3 times, then join to start of row2.

“Do but listen for a moment to the wind in this unnatural valley while we speak so low” (The Signalman – Dickens)
Worked very hard most of the day to get this pattern finished - I really like how it turned out. I think I will be making myself a pair of these for this winter when I next get a moment :)
