Open For Business!

     Yep, that is right folks. We are open for business and I am so excited to be officially out there selling my wares. For this weekend to celebrate our grand re-opening, I have a coupon code good for 15% off in my shop. The code is "nowopen4business" and is valid from today through Sunday night at midnight EST. So hurry on over and snatch up a Punis Sampler or some handspun! I will be adding to the shop on an adhock basis over the weekend. So find me on instagram ( katydidknits ) and you will get updates when I post new products in the shop. Which means, first dibs!

     There are so many amazing things I can't wait to share with you all. Like drum carded batts, and being able to partner with other fiber artists in my local community. There is plenty more to come into the shop over the next few days, weeks and months. Hopefully I will be able to sell at a few festivals this year. That would be a wonderful experience for me.

     Also, with every order you place, aside from a lovely handwritten thank you note on stationary, you will get a lil freebie. The freebie could be stitch markers, a homemade pom pom, tea, candy, buttons or a total surprise. Maybe unknowingly you became the 25th order or the 50th order! Either way, I am really looking forward to surprising you all with the goodies included in your packages.

     And can I just say how much I love weighing, wrapping and adding those little touches to packages?! It is one of the best parts of my job.

     Every listing gets wrapped in tissue paper then placed into a zip-top bag for protection from the elements. As you can I use fun stickers to seal the tissue paper, and included in these first orders I grabbed from my personal pom-pom stash for the freebie. These particular pom-poms are made from some of my own handspun. Which just so happens to be some of my favorite handspun of all time! My Nana once told me it was a sin to cut up yarn, until she said that pom-poms are exempt. Because who could ever frown at cute and perky pom-pom!?

     I do hope you all stop by the shop this weekend and catch a "sporadic" update. Though, on Sunday March 3rd 2013 I will be attending the Dragonfly Fibers Studio Sit n Knit in Kensington MD. So I probably won't be updating much throughout the day. If you are in the area or nearby, come on out to Kate's ( yes, she and I have the same name! ) studio and hang with us all. There is a new Dragonfly Fibers KAL on Ravelry starting soon so this is the perfect time to pick your DFF colors for the KAL. You can find more info about the KAL and Kate's studio in the Dragonfly Fibers group on Ravelry.

Happy Spinning, Knitting and Crocheting!
Kate
