I’m in a book! An actual, physical book 🙂 I have two patterns in Crochet Critters and Bugs:
The Great Big Aphid and the Great Big Scorpion are both very pleased to be in a book 🙂
The book came out in January, but it’s been in the works for a long time. I was contacted in 2012 and asked to contribute with two patterns, and of course I said yes 🙂 Last spring I crocheted up the two bugs to get new progress photos and the bugs and the patterns were shipped off to the publisher (Stackpole Books) in May. After that I could only wait… And it was definitely worth the wait 🙂 I picked up the package with my two bugs and my copies of the book yesterday, and I’m super excited to finally have the book in my hands. It’s only two patterns of 22, but to me it’s still a huge deal. And I’m really honored to be chosen along with a bunch of other awesome designers 🙂
Even if you already have these two patterns, I still recommend very much to get the book, because there are so many other great designs. I’m definitely going to try some of the other critters soon 🙂
Well. I’m going to shut up now, but the book is available on Amazon, where you can get a look inside to see what else is in there 🙂
