It's official! I have just released my first paid pattern on Ravelry! It is a crocheted piece-work afghan. It is under the MerryMakingDesign name. My business is called Merry Making. You can find me on Etsy at MerryMakingCrafts.
The pattern is entitled "St. Mary's Patio Stones Afghan". It was inspired by the patio stones at St. Mary's Church in Russell, Ontario. I was sitting on the steps one day and suddenly I "saw" a blanket.
Do you see what I mean?
I immediately set to work on forming the "stones" for this blanket and working out how to arrange them and sew them together. Once my pattern was in draft form, I began to crochet the afghan. When the blanket was completed, I began to search for testers.
I managed to persuade a single tester to assist me in finalizing the pattern. Her name is Linda Biggs and she was fantastic. She helped me perfect the rounded corners. And take a look at how her blanket came out!!
Isn't it beautiful!!
So, there is a promotion on the blanket until October 15th. If you are a Raveler, please check out St. Mary's Patio Stones Afghan. Thank you for reading my blog!
