Many of you have been patiently waiting for me to come out with new patterns and I really appreciate that. Balancing my time between art work and pattern writing has been a struggle for me. After all, what I really, truly love to do is make art work. But I feel that I owe it to you, my faithful XD readers, to provide you with the means to create your own amigurumis.
After a LOT of thought and suggestions for others, here is what I have decided to try…Managing one’s time, especially when working for yourself, is a real skill to be developed. My dad had the brilliant suggestion of dedicating a set number of hours per week to writing patterns. Maybe this is obvious, but it wasn’t to me. That way, he said, I can be assured that I have made a good effort and be free from the nagging feeling that I should be writing patterns and just not doing it because I am afraid that it will eat up all of mine time. This makes such good, common sense that I am excited to give it a try.

I would love to buy some more of your patterns. I got your book for xmas and just want to get home from work so that I can crochet
) I would buy your patterns any way you want to sell them, seperately or in a book. Your instructions are so easy (even for me who is swedish) and I love your photos.
Looking forwards to seeing more of your work and maybe some patterns
