So I'm designing a scarf for my etsy shop. Sadly probably my only one to be sold this season. I have been so busy that I haven't had time to do much shop work although I have so many ideas. I'll post of picture of it once it's done.
The price is yet undecided. Right now I think it will be on sale for $35. With shipping costing $5. I'm going to include insurance on it with the shipping. I have to ask my dad how to do that. He's an ebayer and very smart.
So here's a basic description for you. The scarf body is done in double crochet. The yarn is a wool blend, is a light weight yarn, and is a light chocolate brown color. I plan on doing a border on 3/4's of it. The other side is meant to go around your neck. I thought a border all around would be too irritating. You want to wear a scarf that's pretty and yet not annoying to wear. Plus I am adding beads to the border to add some sparkle to it. ^^ Sparkle oh how I love shiney things.
I'm hoping someone will want to purchase it. I worked so hard on it and I'm very proud of my work. I'm not sure what I want to call it though. I have to admit it was inspired by my love of the Elves from Lord of the Rings. Tolkien is a major influence in some of my works. So please if you are interested please take a look. I'll post a link to the etsy shop once I get the pictures up. I'm hoping it will be finished by sunday.
As a note for anyone interested in purchasing my work.
After I finish my works I always wash them. I will never sell dirty work. I mean I have been handling the yarn for hours I don't want it to have oil from my hands.
I will also package it with care and with a hand written set of care instructions. Plus the scarf will be adorned with a small button. This is just a symbol for my shop. Buttons will vary and are removable since I only lightly sew them on. So easy removal is gauranteed. Hey other stores have symbols why not mine? I like to try and be professional.

Foamy the Squirrel Plans
Ok I'm planning a crochet project. Which means I'm trying to find various patterns to make something I want, which I might add is a pain in the rear.
Idea: Make a crochet amigurumi of Foamy the Squirrel or Pill-zee
For those of you who don't know what this is it's a comic/cartoon made by Jonathan Ian Mathers.
Foamy is a ranty squirrel who drops f-bombs constantly in his cartoons and yet is capable of pointing out truths and things many people don't have the courage to say. It's a bizarre cartoon but for some reason I can't help but watch.
For those of you who are young or have young children DO NOT watch these or near children. It's highly inappropriate contains highly sexual and profane content. Just a warning. But for those of you who are of age and are going to be curious watch away. Maybe you too will become part of the Foaminian Cult (joke, watch show to understand reference)
So far I found a nice pattern on etsy for the tail ^___^ progress is looking good!
Once I start this I'll take pictures. And hopefully can get a pattern out for people who want a foamy or pill-zee of their own...and maybe in the future I can do a bedly (don't think is writing his name correctly) which is the British squirrel : )
Comment let me know what you think
Does anyone have any requests recipes? drinks? Crochet or Knitting Requests??
COMING SOON TO A YOUTUBE NEAR YOU!!!

Have a great day/night everyone!

So the idea mostly is first to attempt to make Pill-zee the cute pill popping glasses wearing, hypochondriac with so many mental problems it becomes hilarious.
