Free Patterns for Hemp Produce Sacs

I know you're so excited right?  These sold quite well in my Etsy shop.  But I just don't have the time to make these on an ongoing basis to sell.  What's more "Green" than sharing?  I am sharing these simple patterns because I want people to use them!

Back in the Game!!!

Just an update to let you all know that I have reopened my Etsy shop, and I will be more listed items very soon.  I am in the process of setting up wholesale so that I can make my handmade items available locally, as well as online. 

An important new aspect of The Art of Zen........Crochet is that I have decided to go all hats.  I will be selling off other stock I have.  But that doesn't mean that patterns for free or for sale will not be available.  I will be working on releasing those soon.  I may reintroduce select items down the road, but I don't want to bite more than I can chew.

I am hoping to reintroduce product giveaways in October, so stay tuned for that.

A big thank you for sticking with me in this tough period of transition.  It will all be worthwhile,

Chriss
