Oh, frabjous day

Working on some Shelly Caps for my Etsy shop - made one last night out of a very lovely lavender alpaca-merino blend, perfect for cooler weather. I think I might also make up some coffee cup sleeves for my ReEdited shop and I am considering a possible promo for International Crochet Day, which is coming up quickly on September 12.

This weekend was great for business, at least for me: I found out that one of my hats sold from the NJ shop and also signed in to my e-mail yesterday to discover that I had sold a top through ReEdited. Yay for a little extra cash in the bank!

I'm not dead, I'm having an affair...

...with another project, that is! Besides hats, another of my many loves is fashion. I make a lot of my own clothing and am constantly visiting our local thrift stores to see what I can find - and sometimes to see what I can use to make something else! After a long time thinking and dreaming about it, I finally decided it was time to take the plunge and launch ReEdited, my very own collection of recycled and upcycled fashions. Check out a little of what I've been doing at ReEdited.etsy.com. More to come soon!

I have also been working on some new hats for Hello Bluebird, a new handmade/indie shop opening up in West Reading. And of course I'm still trolling along on my Sys Fredens V-Neck Top, which is very close to being almost done. Did I mention I taught myself needle felting? I think I need a nap.
