Busy for the Whole Weeks Through...

On the needles: Mittens to felt!

So, I've been a busy, busy girl. Between a busy day job, and stocking for my first show of the season, I haven't had any time to catch my breath (not to mention the chest cold that's haunting me three weeks later, but at least it's better...)!

Anyway. I was a vendor at Crestmont, which was a fantastic show - lots of traffic, and the most profitable yet! The only drawback to that day was how bitterly cold it was! haha


As you can see above, there were lots of mittens. This is the stack of them on my ironing board beforehand:


And I'm working on more now! I have Market Collective December 6-8 at the King Edward School (1720 20th Ave SW).


So...More knitting and sewing to come! I've almost hit all of my goals for stock for this show, but keep your fingers crossed for me nonetheless - I don't have that much longer to go! haha

Have a lovely day, my dears! I promise I'll be more present after December 14th (Last Minute Christmas Show in Cochrane - Spray Lake Sawmills Family Sports Centre).

Busy, Busy, Busy!

WiP: Mittens
Sewing: Box Bags
Finished: Lots!

Ummmmm...Hi! I've been super busy. Along with a vacation hubby-to-be and I took (I'll post photos soon) at the beginning of the month, I'm stocking up for a show in Edgemont on November 16! So there's been lots of knitting and sewing going on here - mostly me knitting and sewing like a mad woman. I think I might have scared Dallas a little bit!

I've included some highlights below, but trust me, it's not the only things that have been finished! I have a few more highlights to post over the next couple of weeks, but this is what I'll share with you for now. :)

Last night, I finished these mitts with the sparkly cuffs:
nekozukiyarns, mittens, felted mittens, sparkles

This past weekend, I finished these unlined drawstring bags:

I'll be introducing these crocheted, decorate-your-own-tiara kits at Edgemont:

And this was my world on Sunday:

Exciting News Parts 1, 2, & 3

WiP: Gemini by Jane Richmond (almost there!!!); Wedding #2 Log Cabin Blanket
HF: Slipper
Need to seam: six slippers

Exciting News Part 1!

I'm getting my fall shows lined up! So far:

November 16 - Edgemont Christmas Craft Fair, Edgemont Community Centre (9-3)

November 30 - Handmade Craft Parade, St. Michael School (10-3)

Tentative: December 6 - Mountain Made, Canmore, AB.

I think that'll keep me sufficiently busy for this holiday season, as I am going to be more regularly updating Etsy.

Exciting News Part 2!

I will be able to accept Visa & Mastercard at these markets, as I went and purchased a Square card reader. This means that I can now accept payments via these two large credit card companies.

Exiting News Part 3!

I'm going to be updating Etsy this weekend.

Watch this space, as well as Facebook/Twitter for the updates to come!

Have a lovely day, my dears!
