Etsy Feature

A month or two ago I came across someone on the forums who is super sweet and sells photo props like I do! I absolutely love the things she sells and they look very well made. Her name is CountryKnitCocoon on Etsy. She also sells on Zibbet: CountryKnitCocoon. Here are a few pictures of my favorite items from her shop:

Check her out! :]

On a side note: Today I will be making all my items inactive in my Etsy store until I come back from vacation on June 2nd. If you have a custom order, please contact me or email me at lovebycc@yahoo.com and I will see what I can do!

New Baby Hat Styles

I have finally gotten done a few things I am sending a photographer in Australia. She contacted me and has about 6-8 babies a week to photograph! This makes me so happy because that means I will get my pictures done faster! I love love love getting photos back from photographers.

Anyways, I have been working on a bunch of Merino stuff to send her. Here are a few pictures.

This specific hat was inspired by a picture someone sent me of a baby wearing a gorgeous beanie with a rose and a feather. I had ordered this colorful Merino yarn from a wonderful Etsy seller and decided to use this. I attached a pink fabric rose and a marabou feather to a alligator clip so it could be taken off and put back on if needed for any reason. I just love love love this and I can't wait to see photos of it when it is on a baby!

This is a boy beanie I made out of Merino yarn I got from another wonderful Etsy seller. I love Etsy :] I had this Merino yarn called "Sky Blue Marshmallow" and the cream so I decided to put them together. It came out look really well, I think. I can't wait to see this one a baby as well!


I also made a brim hat and diaper cover set in a light pink with a cream outlining the hat and the diaper cover. It ended up turning out really well. I used 100% organic cotton yarn because I have realized that a lot of people love the organic and cotton as well. It also ended up being really soft and I didn't notice the difference until I went back to crocheting with the acrylic!

Baby Pom Pom Hat Giveaway

I am in a bit of a dilemma! I really want to open a second shop that has my adult hats and items in it so that they aren't combined with my baby items. I think they would get more exposure that way. However, I can't come up with a name!

So, I am going to do a giveaway to figure out my new shop name! Here is how you get entered into my giveaway:

All you need to do is: Post a comment here with a name for my new shop!

I would like a name that is similar to LoveByCC so that people will know it is me.

Here are two pictures of the Baby Pom Pom Hat:

I do have different colors as well, so if you win, you get to choose the color!

The giveaway will end in a week from today on April 3rd or when I find the perfect name! Thanks for all who participate :]

Wordless Wednesday - Perfect Flower

Pictures, Babies, Hats, Crocheting, Craft Fair, Etsy

Wow, I haven't posted in a LONG time! I have been oh so busy with crocheting, getting pictures done of my items, fulfilling my orders, and getting ready for my first craft fair!

Yesterday I got a message from a nice lady asking me to attend a craft fair she is hosting. I am so excited and can't wait! It is a little over a month away so I have to start crafting away and get TONS of hats made. Its going to be a lot of work but I think I can do it. I am super excited.

I am hoping to find good ways to display my hats!

Here are a few of my new hats and pictures of the adorable babies:
