A small gloat, but significant to me. I just made my first sale ever! :D I sold a nostepinne, online. Here's hoping for many more... ;)

I don't think I posted this one. It's a Tiger birch one from a batch of about 6 that are similar, but have different details. You can see it here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/patrickdylan/718150762/in/set-72157600643127091/

Congrats. I have to ask what is a nostepinne?

Knitters can use them to wind a skein of yarn (big loops) into a center-pull ball (a ball from the center of which you can pull yarn out as you need it). There are crank winders that attach to a table, but the nostepinne is the old-school way of doing it.

Congrats! Did you ever think your first sale wouldn't be a pen or bowl? More to come I hope for you!

Congrats Patrick. That is awesome. It always has to start from the first. Looks like you are on your way.

Real nice piece, glad someone asked what it was for! You are no longer an amateur like a lot of us. Skip

It looks great Patrick! (I'm glad Mike asked what it was so I didn't have to.)

I only know because I'm married to a compulsive knitter. :rolleyes:

I wouldn't get one for my wife as she's a compulsive hitter! Looks like a sawed down nightstick to me!.........But beautifully done Patrick!
