Knitting to order

Posted on | October 9, 2007

I had another Craft Fair on Saturday. It was very quiet and most of the crafters didn’t sell very much at all.

I managed to sell a couple of Neck Wraps and a scarf, but I also got orders for 2 Jackets, a cardigan and a jumper all in large sizes.

I’m not sure if this is a good thing or not as now I have to get these garments done and I don’t have time to knit up new stock, but then again, as I didn’t sell any jumpers at the weekend, my stock has not gone down.

The next Craft Fair is on Saturday and I will need to replace the Neck Wraps and scarf that I sold, but I should be able to do that as well as getting some of the orders done.

The worst thing about getting orders, is that I now have to knit certain garments in a certain order. Without orders, I can please myself what I want to knit next.

I will try to put some more pictures online over the next couple of weeks. The kids are off school on Thursday this week for the October holidays. This usually means that I can get more done, as I don’t need to get them ready for school and things like that.
