There are a few things I would like to talk about in this little blog post/update I guess you can say.
New Years resolutions.
I have a few I hope to keep this year.
1. Knit my first pair of socks.
2. Open my Etsy shop.
3. Start a knitting/Sewing/Crafting Podcast on Youtube.
4. Turn one of our rooms into a crafty room.
5. Learn to Crochet.
6. Learn to dye yarn.
7. Build my yarn stash. lol
So It is Jan. 24th and I haven't done any yet. lol I am working on one though. I have been getting ready to open up my Etsy Shop. I will be selling project bags and other knitting/crocheting accessories. I hope to expand it to other sewn items a bit later in the year and I might sell hand dyed yarn if It all goes well in learning how to do that lol
I ordered some business cards and they arrived in the mail 2 weeks ago. YAY! I kinda went a bit crazy and bought a ton of fabric for bags. I might put a few of each in the shop to start with and then add a few every other week.
Here are a few pics of the fabric soon to be made into project bags.
and my newest stash I picked up last week.
Here is a preview of one of the bags that will be listed in the Etsy Shop Grand Opening! I love this fabric!!
What are some of your Knitting/Crocheting/Crafting New Years Resolutions?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some of the other things I have in the works:
My Etsy Shop:
I have my shop set up I just need to finish sewing a few more bags before I start selling anything. I am hoping to have it open by the end of the month, if all goes as planned. *Fingers crossed*
The Facebook Page:
I made a page for my Etsy shop but I haven't finished setting it up yet. It will be a place to get shop updates as well as some of the free knitting patterns and other crafty stuff I want to share with you.
My Ravelry Group:
I am planning to open a Crafty Momma Designz Rav group soon. In there, will also be shop updates and fun knitting, crocheting, podcast and crafty things to talk about. I am planning on doing some giveaways as well. YAY! Who doesn't love giveaways!
I will update you on the links to all those as they get finished.

The Blog:
I am hoping to keep the blog more up to date and continue to share free knitting patterns, tutorials, tips and more, like I have before. There will just be some added things to the mix. That being said, I don't think I will be able to continue with the pattern a day but I will still be sharing them weekly if not more.
I am so excited about all the new things I have planned and I hope you all will continue to join me. This is going to be a great year, I can't wait!!
Happy Crafting!
