(these are kind of crappy photos, those pages should actually be white)

ok, i bought 3 copies. it's just a very tiny little blurb and a tiny little photo (the hat shown is actually in italy now!), but what they wrote was so cool and right on!!!
and they spelled my name right and got my url correct! yippee!!!
BUT they said i used "knitting needles"!! i do not KNIT, i CROCHET! ha :)
well, slowly but surely i shall make crochet a word that people finally KNOW :)

it says:
"Hats/ by Ana Voog
The fantastical creations by designer Ana Voog conjures up with her knitting needles are a far cry from the chunky potholders and four-foot-long scarves our grandmothers used to make. Wisps and curls of wool dangle precipitously , feathery tufts sprout side-ways, and geometric shapes proliferate.
http://www.anacam.com/hats/"

this is SUPER wonderful for me and i am EXTREMELY grateful!!!
i think their paid circulation is around 170,000! so i hope that at least a small percentage of that see my little photo and come check out my hats!
and i hope this leads to more coverage in other magazines *prays to the gods and goddesses of surface magazine* :)
thank you universe!!!!

You should email them with the correction- they're likely to print the correction in the next issue!

And congratulations!!

Awesome, Ana!

You really should email them about the correction... that way people know that your hats are crocheted, but also it gets you a mention in the next issue, which will increase people's interest in your work (even if only a few people read the correction).

That looks STUNNING!
Ah ha on the knitting needles thing. People should really pay attention to what they're told. I tell people CONSTANTLY that I'm crocheting not knitting and I think the difference is a big one. I DO knit as well but sheesh one or two. Who didn't learn the difference between one and two? ;)
Congrats dear it's fabulous!

Heheh, I thought pretty much the same thing as everyone else who commented when I first read "knitting needles." Well, they're not the first to be confused by the difference.

I really like the description they wrote of your hats, though!

I'm so happy for you! That's awesome. I'm going to go grab a copy.

My grandmother taught me the basics of crochet when I was about 5. I just started picking it back up, mostly because I love your stuff so much.

uurgh, i sympathize with the "knitting" thing. it seems no one knows what crochet even IS unless they do fiber arts themself. i always figured people knew, because of the crocheted afghans my grandmothers used to have, but no... if there's knotted yarn, it's all "knitting" to most people. ;_; (i've always liked crochet better, it's more fun and freeform ^_^)

Power Thought Cards

I drew these three randomly with my eyes closed...

Life Supports Me.
Life created me to be fulfilled.
I trust Life, and Life is always there at every turn.
I am safe.
------------
It is safe to look within.
As I move through the layers ot other people's opinions and beliefs,
I see within myself a magnificent being, wise and beautiful.
I love what I see in me.
------------
I love my body.
I create peacefulness in my mind,
and my body reflects this peacefulness as perfect health.



If you need anymore let me know. Congratulations on your article! :) :) :)
