Hi everyone, Thank you so much for your appreciation over the years. Just to let you know I have relaunched the Roman Sock Shop and you can now find it at romansock.com.
Thank you so much for all the kind words about the little toads you can find the pattern here: Download toad.pdf
I have been thinking about trying to get some of my patterns published for a while and I am pleased to announce the next issue of Simply Knitting...... (The UK's Biggest Knitting Magazine) will have a pattern in by me! I am excited beyond words!!! They also choose me as their Friday recommended blog which was just amazing!
Below is a sneaky peak of the item... I hope you like it - its an old fashioned Christmas pud, that doubles up as a handy work bag.
To keep up to date with things that I have going on...you could join my mailing list - I have now added a link to the top of the right hand side bar. I will email when new patterns are published, there are any give aways or anything exciting happens - but not too often.
That is awesome news! Congratulations on being published :)
I just printed the toad pattern out thanks so much <3 Mary

Hi! I am so excited! This pattern looks so fun! Is it in U.S. or U.k. crochet terms?

Congratulations on your pattern getting published. It is really cute & I hope I can find the magazine here in the USA. I love the toad pattern. I hope you are enjoying your new home & feel better from the flu.

Now listen here, Madam. Don't just THINK about getting them published - make sure you DO IT.
They are by far the best patterns on the web and you deserve recognition for them.
So there.

I've been considering getting some work published too but have no idea how to go about it.
Any tips for those of us who aspire higher?
