Booksale

Another two books were sold last week. My books are almost gone, so I need to figure out what I want to do with my Hoppin' Up shop. I am not really into bookbinding any more, so what else can I do?

Lately I have been into crochet again (nooooooh, really???) and the cheerful birdie-polkadot patterns have been rreplaced with natural colors and zakka style minimalist items. Like these.



These are some sort of coasters. They are a little bigger, so you can also use them as a potholder (not for really hot items, obviously, but they will do for a teapot). I initially made them because I was fed up with the puddles of water you get when you have a cold drink. They work great for that.



It is pretty hard to find a nice way to photograph astack of white crochet coasters for Etsy. So I resorted to the Munchkins toys.



Awwwwwwwwww!
