State of the Crocheter
Nov. 27th, 2011 04:48 pmHowdy, folks! Sorry for the relative radio silence on my end, I've been a little distracted. Again.
Anyway, this is mostly to let you know that I'm going through and making a major edit to a number of my patterns. Specifically:
A note onsc 6: Wherever I have Round One with sc 6 (sc 6 crossed out), that's where you can go ahead and start with dc 12 instead. I honestly have a little trouble starting a magic ring with dc, so I've been using sc as a bit of a work-around, but going right for dc honestly gives the various body parts a better shape. If you've been having a problem body parts that are too pointy or round, this might be the fix you're looking for.
I'll try and get all of that fixed up sometime tonight.
I've also had a couple of people ask about selling things made from my patterns. I'm generally pretty cool with it, with a couple of exceptions, and especially if you ask (though no guilt if you haven't asked before now; I didn't exactly have a policy up earlier), but I do have a couple of requests:
1) If you're able, financially or otherwise, and the fandom creator has a tip jar, please drop a percentage of what you make in there. If not, maybe consider a charity.
2) Once you've donated to the creator (or a charity), please consider dropping me a smaller percentage of what you make. Or just donate once in a while. I love making most of my patterns free to the public, but I'd also love to stay in yarn and get out of my parents' basement.
I think that's it for now! I'm going to try and have Dobby's pattern up by the solar new year, but I'm not sure about what else I might put up. Thanks for your time :)
