it's been a long time...

Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back, let me get it back
mm-baby, where I come from...

...yup, I have been a bit pre-occupied.
New/old rekindled love and a puppy have stolen all my free blog time!

But I am still hooking - have made The Dicktator a hate hat (ooo a bit freudian there!) and one of my special jolie rouge deep red skull and crossbones scarf - and I'm still working on the yarneater CAL with Sarah London (who despite my new/old bf, I still love love love in the biggest fangirl way ever).  My yarneater is actually getting too big to carry around, so I need to do some doggy crochet as our little 13 week old puggle Elvis needs more chewy toys!

I used to make really nice crochet doggy bones out of worsted weight cotton and stuffed with my old t-shirts, gave them to my puppies at the salon in Stockholm and also the tattoo shop in Ibiza town...now I gotta get back on the bone and make some for my own little one, but this week has been pretty harsh - we've had literal blood sweat and tears (and a few police) and today is the first day I can read properly - so maybe I'll leave any new projects for a couple days.

Oh, and if it's not past midnight yet for you = happy Sadie Hawkins day!
And if it is later on - happy St David's day!

Miss you all xxx

how much should a hooker charge??


he-elp!
so i made some awesome bunting for my lovely friend salena's birthday today...

...yes, i know that i've gone a bit bunting mad lately! but i think it might be the novelty of not having had it back home. we get 'garland' but it's not like this. and there does seem to be a bit of a bunting resurgence, doesn't there?

which it looks like i can cash in on a bit if i want to.
as someone at the party has a shop that only stocks and sells limited edition hand-made items and they wanna sell my birthday bunting. which is awesome and i'm excited as i've been thinking about selling my crochet properly again for awhile.

but this is where i need the crafty handmade blogosphere's help...what do you all think that i should charge for a crocheted bunting of about 7 flags? it's not my usual granny triangle stylee - but something alot quirkier...and i have no idea how much they would retail or wholesale for - and i know that some of you crafters sell your wares, so i'd really appreciate your guidance.
