busy day today....

...ramping up my job search and my business. It's like I have my feet in both places and cannot take it out of one. I am looking for a full-time job for sure but at the same time I am not about to give up on my knitting business. What can I say, I live to fight another day...

Back to School time...

Good Day and Welcome... Thanks for Reliving The Joy!!!

(feel free to pass on to your friends and family)

I had a wonderful summer reconnecting with old relatives and new and old friends via facebook, twitter and in-person. My summer was also spent going down to the lake, running, walking and just totally enjoying the outdoors. Fall is just around the corner and there are two things to think about "Back to School" and "Christmas", yes I said CHRISTMAS! unbelievable that it's less than 4 months to Christmas. Start thinking about gifts for your loved ones and place your custom orders. Remember almost everything in my shop can be customized. Design your own Style and I will be happy to make it. On another note I know that most of my clients are family and friends and I am trying to decide whether or not to do a monthly newsletter or just stick with a more personal email, what do you think?

Crochet Dress - Part III

I did promise to blog about my progress of my first ever crochet dress. It's coming along slowly but surely and I am actually enjoying making it. So I have completed all the pieces necessary and I am currently stitching it together. It is a lot of work, still so rewarding. I am working on this between all the other work I have to do so this is why it is not completed as yet. Lets just say it is a work in progress.

Crochet Dress - Part II

I will show snippets of my work as I am going along, remember this is my first ever crochet dress. At the end I will reveal my sketch and you can tell me how well I did. Check it out.

Designing A Crochet Dress

I have decided to take the plunge and design and crochet my first dress. I spent most of today sketching to see what my head will produce. I am currently working on a pastel yellow cotton dress and a black halter dress. I will post pictures of my progress with the black dress for everyone to see.

New project....

Today I started a market bag in country green. After crocheting out the first ball I realized that it was too boring so I added another colour called warm brown. I must say it is quite nice. I will post the pics so you can see what I mean. I will need to take the new pic tomorrow for you all to see what it looks like now. It's too late and too dark.

Summer is almost here...

...and I have started to create my bikinis and halters, check me out at http://www.etsy.com/shop/dylanadesigns

As always I will be happy to take custom orders and create anything your heart desires.

Have a great day!
