Upcoming craft show!

I will be attending my first craft show as a crafter this weekend, tehe!  I am fairly new to crocheting but love it.  I was a bit of a procrastinator so I don't have much to sell.  I have been working on dish- cloths for the past couple of weeks so I have a little something to sell.  I have made many things since I started crocheting last year around this time but they are not things I would be comfortable selling. 

I do love the dishcloths I have made for this show though.  These are the sets I have made so far :

Most of them are sets of two.  I had hoped to makes sets of 3 or 4 but didn't give myself enough time to do that, sigh!  I still haven't decided how much to sell them for.  I should probably check Etsy to see what people sell them for on there.  I would like to at least get back what I paid in yarn for them and a little for the labor, fun labor!  I really do enjoy crocheting, very relaxing.  Well except when the yarn comes out tangled, that can be frustrating for sure.

I may actually pick up a little more yarn and try to make some more before Saturday.  I will probably actually make some while at the craft show too.  The pattern I used for the red dishcloths is so simple and comes together quickly.  I got that pattern from this site: Click here to check it out.  I actually used two of the patterns from that site.  The crunchy stitch and the textured stitch.  The other site I used for the dishcloths was this one:  Click here.  The one I used from that site is called the Gentle Ridges Stitch/pattern. 

The patterns I got from the two sites above were much more simpler than those I got out of the books I was using.  Yeah, I am new to using patterns.  I usually free style it when I am crocheting but I have found that patterns aren't too hard to follow.  The book I used for some of the dishcloths is called "Dishcloths, Featuring a Pot Scrubber: Too!"  It is important and helpful to know abbreviations too for crocheting.  I found this link helped me a lot with abbreviations.  I wish I had continued with crocheting when I was growing up but oh well.  I would have been a pro by now if I had stuck with it.  I'm not to shabby now though.  I have pictures of other things I have made on my YouTube channel.  You can check that out by clicking here.

Thanks again for stopping by.  If you like to crochet, Happy Hooking to you!

Happy Hooker,
