A Request

At the last farmers market I attended (on Mother's Day)...




I received a request. One of the other vendors had seen something on Pinterest that she just had to have.

So, after some searching, I found the pattern on Etsy. (I wouldn't recommend this pattern, by the way.) I just finished the first one on Saturday...


And I let her try it on on Sunday...


I need to make a couple modifications, and then it'll be done. (So, I'll be making two more in addition to the one I made just to try out the pattern.)

I never would have even looked twice at this if she hadn't requested it. It was kind of fun once I got the hang of it.

    1. It's not quite finished. But it shouldn't take me long.

    1. It is. I never would have found it on my own.

  3. It looks like a butterfly! I think it's cool and you have a new product just like Alex said

    1. I can't actually sell it to anyone but her. Copyright. I have permission to sell to her, but not to add it to my line. (People can buy those from the designer directly.)

  4. Ooh, lace. Very lovely. I might try a knitted version of this sometime this summer...

    1. I'd be curious how you'd knit it. If you figure out a pattern, make sure to publish it.

  5. Your stall is fantastic! You have unique and very usable products (as I look at my phone holder on my desk)!

  6. How pretty! Something teen girls would love, I'm sure!

    1. I don't see teen girls getting into it. More like those who are still teens at heart.

  7. It came out really nice. It's definitely stylish, though I'm not sure I'd be able to pull it off ;).

    1. Thanks, although I don't think I can really take credit for it.

  9. It's pretty (and so is your stall). We need a stall like this at our local farmers market. I admire your energy. I was never good enough winging it although I did earn some money crocheting ponchos (it was the early 70's) in college. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

  10. I have to say, that’s very cool! Sort of gothic looking.

  11. That's an interesting pattern. Very stylish. But like J.E., I doubt I'd be able to pull it off. :)

    I love that you're able to take requests!

  12. Not for me but on someone else, cool!

    1. She wanted to keep it. Even though it wasn't quite right yet.

  14. Like it... could disguise those pesky age spots.

    1. Thanks. But I was just following a pattern.
