What's your opinion???

I have branched out and put my name literslly everywhere. Etsy, my own website, a blog, google+, facebook, twitter, linkedin, and now Ravelry.
Ravelry was a pain in my crochet hook. I understand they are only run by about 6 people, but I really think they need to invest in more employees. It takes approx. 3 weeks to get an e-mail back from them, which I personally find completely ridiculous. And don't even try to use the chat help. The "volunteer" who runs was completely rude to me and refused to answer my question. However if you go complain in the forums everything gets fixed in about 5 minutes. I get alot of traffic from ravelry so I do suggest anyone who makes patterns to put them on Ravelry, just remember it's a pain in your crochet hook and they will most likely be rude.
Know as I look through Ravelry I see so many patterns for free. Good patterns too! I mean patterns I would pay for. Do people even buy patterns anymore?? I love making patterns and will continue to make them but I almost feel as if it's a lost cause.
On another note is the baby bonnet fad over? Or am I just not getting the right customers in my shops? I get so many views and favorites everywhere but only a couple of sales.
Just curious as to what everyone thinks. What would you like to see in my shop?? What would you want to buy?? Handspun yarn/hand painted roving?? Finished products?? Patterns??I'd like to get everyone's opinions so I can better suit everyone's wants and needs.
Thank you for your opinions! <3 Hope your day as warmer and less white then mine! lol

Movember Mustache Mania

It is Movember! No that's not a typo it's Movember.

 Movember is when men around the world grow their mustaches in support of mens health. Things such as testicular cancer, prostate cancer, and mental health. I have decided since I can't grow a mustache to help support and raise money for this great cause that I would make my mustache!

And now I want your help! In this post I will be putting a pattern for you to make your own mustache, but it's not completely free. I have a few requirements.

I want you to take this pattern and make mustaches all month long! If you can I would like you to sell them and donate your profits from it to charity. I will be pumping out mustaches this week and making them available in my shops as well.  Here's a link to where you can donate:
http://us.movember.com/donate

I also want you to spread the word!! Share this with everyone so the can help us raise money and awareness! Take pictures of your mustaches.  Maybe your mustache found it's way onto your dog, or your mustache visited a national monument, again let's have fun and spread the word!! You can post your pictures on my facebook page
https://www.facebook.com/babymadecrochet, or yours and just tag me in it. Or send me a link to your blog or website where you'll have them posted.

Let me know how much your raising! I will be offering a gift to the person or group, or business that raises the most. I am working on finding out if they give a receipt when you donate so I can have proof of the amount actually donated.

Let's work together for a great cause!! Have fun with it and spread the word about Movember!
I can't wait to see  where your mustaches end up!


And here's your patten. It's very simple. It works across one
row and then across the other side.

Movember Moustache Pattern

Ch3 slip stitch in 3rd ch from hook, Slip stitch 2, Sc 2, Hdc, Trc, Trc, Hdc, SS, Hdc, Trc, Trc, Hdc, Sc, Sc, Ss, Ss, Ch3, Ss in 3rd ch from hook,
 On other side of beginning chains: Ss, Ss, Ss, Ss, Hdc, Hdc, Hdc, Hdc, Ss, Hdc, Hdc, Hdc, Hdc, Ss, Ss, Ss, Ss. Bind off. Sew in ends.
