I've Made Friday Week 42

I'm afraid I haven't got anything finished

for today.

They are nearly there but not quite so you'll have to wait till next week.

Sorry.

I've got a few things to get your opinions on.

The first is Crochet & Pinterest.

Crochet Concupiscence has set a challenge.

It got me thinking.

I didn't understand why crochet wasn't at the top 

of Pinterest pins.

So I've got an idea. 

I've set-up a board on pinterest called my top favourite crochet patterns.

If you are not on Pinterest email me and I will send you an invite.

If you are already on Pinterest just let me know your user name.

I'll add you so you can add your pins.

If everyone pins their favorite patterns and you repin the ones you like.

We can hopefully get crochet to be a number one on Pinterest.

Make sure you put #Crochet in the description.

This is the board:

Now I might not have any finished projects to show you

but I can show you the yarn that arrived yesterday:

The yarn is from deramores.

I bought a colour pack

http://www.deramores.com/stylecraft-special-dk-colour-pack

as it was on special.

Now the other discussion is copyright.

So far I haven't found any of my patterns duplicated

but I have been told about this site that

puts copies of peoples patterns on it.

People can download the patterns for "Gold Coins".

If you are a crochet designer please check none of your patterns are on this site:

If you ever come across anyone else selling or listing my patterns

can you please let me know.

One crocheting blogger has had her whole blog copied.

It's really upsetting as when I sold my patterns I didn't even

cover the cost of yarn.

If someone else is giving your patterns away there is no way you will be ever

able to cover costs.

I'm afraid I haven'r read any books this week.

I'll hopefully get one started next week.

Now if you've been making
