Newest Pattern
I've created this new doily pattern.
It is now available to buy on Ravelry, Craftsy, and Artfire
I created twisted loop sets, which I think is an entirely new stitch. I've never seen it anywhere before.
This doily also has bobbles and picots, and is made with a sort of pineapple pattern.
It can be made with one or two colours

Art Theft
There are some things that are just wrong!
Stealing other peoples images of their work as your own is one of them.
This web site: http://www.cakechooser.com/ was using an image of my own 3d beaded cake.
I don't even understand what it had to do with what they were making. They seem to decorate cakes, I guess.
I contacted them a week ago, explaining that it was my image, and it was illegal to use it without my permission. I heard nothing back, and the image was still there. After a week I contacted their ISP. It is now gone.
But looking at the other images, they all link to an image editing program. So I thought probably none of these images are their own. Looking around at images on Google, I found they were definitely stolen.
I have contacted 3 websites about their stolen images.
What sort of person can do something like this?
To use the image for your own personal use, or to show what other people can do is one thing, but to show it as your own work for monetary gain, is so wrong!

Donations
Just a reminder to everyone.
Donations are always welcome, and really appreciated.
I have had free patterns downloaded over 7,000 times. If some of you just donated a small amount for each free pattern, it would be really helpful.
Donations are very easy to do through Paypal, and you don't even have to sign up.
Updated to add: the free patterns are still always free on the blog whether you donate or not
