Crochet Booties for pretty baby feet.

I was working on a basic bootie design with a strap and had made the flowers with another project in mind. But I just had to have the flowers on the booties and the pearl looks too sweet. They are cotton yarn (light worsted weight = Australian 8 ply). The yarn is Heirloom brand and I love it. It's so smooth and has no fluffy bits like acrylic can have.

I sorted through my yarn the other day. So much yarn, so little time. Harrison sleeps for a couple of hours in the morning, after he watches The Night Garden, and I get a bit of work done.

This pattern is available in my etsy shop.

Love crochet

Lots of late nights watching House, NCIS and other crime shows. And here are the results!

Having a go at crochet design.

I'm currently working on new crochet patterns.
I've made a mermaid tail and top to fit fashion dolls.

GIMP and teeth

First go at blogging. You know how some people jump straight into cold water and others walk in slowly. I'm the latter. So I'm jumping right into this blogging thing. Very caution to the wind, uncharacteristic and exciting. I'm not very computer savvy, so here goes.

After lurking around the Etsy Forums , I found out about a free software program called GIMP. Its image manipulation software. I've been using it to edit pics for my store ketzl.etsy.com and have started creating some original art.

The next step is to print out some of the pics to see how they look.

My little tacker, Harrison (10 mths) is teething. Talk about miserable. He clings on like a barnacle.
And my best girl, Emily (7 yrs) just lost another baby tooth, which she has left out for the fang fairy, with a tiny glass of water and an olive. Yes, the tooth fairy likes olives.
