Can I sell what I make using the pattern I bought?

As long as you made it by hand (not a machine) you can sell the finished product. You cannot sell or give away copies of the pattern or graph.

Most of the patterns are 150 stitches wide (which comes to 4 feet when crocheted with medium weight yarn and a J sized hook). The patterns should have the size they come to in the description but I would say at least 9/10 of them are this size so it's a good guideline. Definitely check to make sure the pattern you're looking at it the size you want before purchasing. One of the reasons most of my patterns are 150 stitches wide is because I like that they can be sewn together into one blanket. I also think it's a good size for having room for detail without being so large that it takes forever to finish.

Can I order a custom pattern?

Yes! I make custom patterns for people all of the time. They usually cost between $15-45 each depending on how difficult they are to design and if I am able to resell them afterwards. Most of the patterns end up being $15 since usually customers are okay with me reselling them after and the customer is often asking for something I think will sell well to others afterwards. The $15 patterns are usually 150 stitches wide as well. This is not a guarantee that the pattern you would like to have designed will be this price, it is just my experience thus far. If you are interested in having a custom pattern designed for you please message me the details of what you are looking for and I will give you a quote on how much it would cost :)

Custom and personalized orders

Yes. Custom tapestries usually cost between $250-400 (baby blankets often between $50-$150). The price is dependent on size and difficulty to create. Shipping is free within the U.S. These tapestries take anywhere from 15-40+ hours to create. If you can find someone else to crochet my work cheaper I am very happy to sell just the pattern and let them do so :)

Can I order custom jewelry?

Yes! I have a large selection of beautiful cabs and cameos. If you are interested in a custom piece let me know what kinds of stones you're looking for, shape or whatever details will give me an idea of what to send you example pictures of. Then you can pick out the one that you'd like to have wrapped and we can go from there! Smaller ones can be made into rings as well. Jewelry is usually made in solid sterling silver or copper but I do have other materials available so feel free to message me and see if we can get what you had in mind turned into reality!

Pattern for a Venus FlyTrap crocheted blanket / tapestry. This pattern comes with both a graph and written directions.

All single stitch crochet using the tapestry crochet technique (carrying yarn)

You will need 6 skeins of White yarn (A), 4 skeins of Green Yarn (B) & 2-4 skeins of red yarn (C) ((depending on if you decide to carry the red through the entire pattern or only use where needed)). This is assuming a medium weight yarn with a skein length of about 350 yards.

I recommend carrying the white (A) and green (B) yarn through the entire pattern to keep it even. I would only carry the red in the section of the pattern where needed. You can either cut the yarn and re-tie or stop carrying the red when you’re getting back to the background and come back for it and pick it up again when you get to the red section on the next row. You could also carry all 3 colors through the entire pattern. It is largely a personal preference but I will say with bright colors you can see it peeking through more (especially with a white background). Of course, it depends on what colors you’re using as well. There are many finished example patterns that you can see in my shop where the finished project shows what carrying yarn looks like and how much you can see since that is what I do with most of the patterns.

I recommend a medium weight (worsted weight) yarn with a J sized hook. The tapestry should come out a little over 4 feet wide (when crocheted with a J hook and medium weight yarn). A border can also increase the size and give the project a more finished look.

It is all single stitch crochet. In order to make this blanket you will need to know how to carry yarn (there are great Youtube videos that can teach you how to do the Tapestry Crochet Technique. I highly recommend trying a small simple pattern to practice carrying yarn before attempting a larger project. Carrying yarn gets more difficult as you add more colors.

150 stiches wide by 134 rows tall

Once you have purchased this pattern a text document that like this (below) will automatically download to you. If you have any trouble receiving it message me and I will have it e-mailed to you in no time. This pattern also comes with a Graph!

1.) A-150
2.) A-30, B-20, A-10, B-50
3....

The #'s are for each row
The letters are for different colors. (A = White (or background color), B = Green, C = Red)
(so the above pattern would have the first row be 150 stitches of color A. 2nd row would have 30 stitches of color A followed by 20 stitches of color B followed by 10 stitches of color A and so on....)
