Did it!

I really thought this pattern was going to be the end of me, but I'm happy to say that I finally finished my tree! Well, ok... trees. I ended up making two and a half trees before I was satisfied with the pattern, but now the patterns is done, tested, photos have been taken and it's listed on Ravelry. Woo-hoo!

I'm also really excited about the response I've been getting for the pattern so far. In the hour since I clicked the Publish button, I've already gotten 29 hearts. That's more love than the cupcake pattern and the cell phone combined!

I want to thank all the blog readers who gave me encouragement on this pattern. There were a few times when I really considered throwing in the towel on this project, but your enthusiasm and kind words really kept me going. Thank you!

I also decided to list the two completed trees on Etsy. So, if you're looking for a fun gift to inspire the imagination, stop on by the shop!
