#Oh and the woven label I tested didn't have enough characters to fit the s in Creations

Anyway, my deck bags won't be 10 bucks but they also won't be Basic (derogatory). Exciting buttons, reinforced chain stitch drawstring with pony bead pull tab (~vintage~ pony beads in this case as these particular beads date back to pre-2000 when I was 10 years old), a bottom ridge to create a proper perpendicular angle with the side of the bag while creating visual interest, reverse single crochet at the top to finish off the raw edge and create more visual interest. Back straps to complete the knapsack design while also providing a place to slip in your hand to stabilize your grip and minimize dropping your shit as you cart your tarot deck room to room (or am I the only one with that problem?). Oh and a branded wash and care label because not everyone knows what to do with crocheted fabric.

Will they cost more than your average indie tarot deck? Um yes. Will I be making a pattern pdf available for purchase so you can make it yourself if you know how to crochet? Also yes. But also spending money on things that save you time makes people happiest and my bag themes are pretty good if I do say so myself. The pictures above are my steampunk design and I just bought some black d20 buttons for another design which I'm looking forward to :D

Though my primary product is going to be 3 card reading mats because they're most economical, along with larger 3x3 card reading mats available as a treat yourself option. The small one there is actually an early prototype. I've since lengthened it a bit so the mat will comfortably fit three oracle cards side by side or three tarot cards. Same for the large mat. It will fit 3 rows by 3 columns of mass market oracle sized cards or standard tarot sized cards. Super oversized cards like the Next World Tarot will need a little scrunching to fit. A Celtic Cross tarot spread will also fit if you tilt the right line at an angle.

Spectral Hook Creations everyone! Coming to the US this fall! ??? (hopefully) (I still have a lot of administration stuff to prep and I can't quit my day job yet :S)
