Welcome!

Seeing as how it seems like everyone on Etsy has a blog I thought it might be a good idea for me to set one up too.

it may be very boring reading for anyone else I guess, but it might help me keep track of things that I'm making.

So as this is my first post here I guess I should introduce myself...

I'm Rosemary and I love to crochet - I try to have a couple of things on the go at a time: at the moment it's little chickie chick egg cosies and a shrug!

I've only been crocheting since last Christmas but it just sort of clicked, after a few wonky starts, I seem to have got the hang of it all now. It's fab to be able to do this, I used knit an awful lot but can't do it any more thanks to tendonitis in my right arm :(

I'm new to Etsy too, having joined really in the hopes that I would be able to sell some of my produce - I'm a very quick crochet-er and like I said I like I have a few things on the go at any time...and there's only so much stuff you can wear yourself.

To date I've sold three items on Etsy, which I'm delighted with - and a few more on my facebook page -- hmmm, can't get the link to add in the text, looks like I've got lots to learn about the wonders of blogging...you'll have to copy and paste this I guess if you're interested in checking it out http://www.facebook.com/pages/Selkie-Crochet-D/111624215532073?ref=ts


I live in Waterville, County Kerry and live near the sea - how lucky am I? I've come home after living in the UK for about 15 years....there really is no place like home.
