My Etsy Shop





It has finally happened! I have obtained all the necessary permits and licenses, and now I am an official owner of a crochet business. Sounds great!

But how great it’s going to be in reality I don’t know. In fact, after checking dozens of other crochet shops on Etsy, my spirits went down. There are so many talented crocheters out there, so the competition is enormous. The good thing is that my business doesn’t have to be a profitable one. It only has to be an enjoyable one! And since I enjoy crocheting so much, I think it is worth giving a try!

I love everything lacy and enjoy crocheting with thread, so I named my shop Olga’s Lacy Crochet. The items there are mostly doilies, but I hope to include bookmarks, coasters, ornaments, and other crochet items soon.

Before posting an item in my shop, I sometimes share its story on my crocheting blog Lacy Crochet.

So wish me luck and if you’ll have a chance, visit Olga’s Lacy Crochet on Etsy.

Thank you!

Dearest Olga,

Okay, did favorite you, TWEET about it and like it on Facebook; hope you will get noticed for your fabulous OLD WORLD QUALITY CROCHETED LACE WORK! You are right, there's lots on Etsy but not all use the superior threads like you do and with such an even hand!
Love to you,
