Listing soon - Small turquoise handwarmers

My latest project was a more petit version of the large, 2 button handwarmers I just sold.  These are more of a handwarmer style, as opposed to my usual wrist or armwarmer design.  Photos of these (not from my cellphone) will be posted on Etsy shortly....


Sold! Turquoise handwarmers

Hurray!  I've had my second sale in the last few weeks. 


I'm keeping my fingers (toes, arms, legs, eyes) crossed that I can keep the sales rolling as I'm updating inventory and working on new patterns.

Work in progress - Turquoise handwarmers

I've been working on handwarmers for just a little while, fiddling around with a couple of my own rough patterns for 3 or 4 months.  I found this really great wool in a lovely turquoise color.  It makes me think of the ocean in all those pictures of island beaches that I drool over. 

This particular pair of handwarmers has been promised to someone, but I should be able to make 2 or 3 more pairs out of the yarn that I have.  I'll post them up on Etsy.  Maybe someone else will love wearing something that evokes the idea warm ocean water during our dreary, cold winter :)

P.S. - Sorry for the not-so-great images.  These photos were taken in horrible florescent light with my cell phone camera.

I'll be updating the blog soon. This is too blah for my taste. I'm trolling templates and will be soliciting comments after it's been changed :)
Oooooh :) that worked! To the 1 non-family member looking at my blog (you know who you are), I've just posted twice in 1 day!
I'm testing to see how well (or if) blogging from my phone works. SOMEONE has commented that I haven't posted in a while.... So here's a post!

Technorati

I've claimed my blog on Technorati (technorati.com) in an effort to drive more traffic to my blog, and, subsequently, to my Etsy store (bettybee.etsy.com) as I'm ramping up to really get moving on my business.

Code me, baby!!!
