I have been slowly adding new patterns to my shop on Ravelry, which allow you to download the patterns immediately instead of waiting for me to email them to you. Although this is great as it is instant, and i don't need to worry about logging on and emailing, it does take away the customer-seller interaction, which can be nice. Also, it is less likely that I will get any feedback on patterns. So I will have to stick with both Ravelry and Etsy as a combination of both seems to be working well for me so far. Some folks still purchase my patterns form my main shop. I am thinking of weaning that down as we approach the end of the year so that by next year, all pattern sales will be through my TD Crochet Pattern shop on Etsy. It's quite a big step, as I don't have that many sales from the pattern shop yet, and very little feedback. But it's a step I need to take to get the pattern shop moving faster. We will see. I hope I won't have to change my mind! :-)
Here is one I have just added to the inventory this week.
I'm loving this one. It's really lovely. I am waiting on a tester for a children's slouchy hat to get back to me. I sent a hat to one of my favourite photographers for photographing. So, next week should be exciting! :-)
Are you on my Facebook page yet? If not, get over there! :-) Thank you!
