It has been quite the year. It started with this warp. Then I kind of stumbled my way through the months.
My goal was to use up stash, and in that regard I did succeed in using up some of my yarns. But I didn’t make the things I really needed. So I am 2/3’s of the way through my craft fair season, having done two out of the three major shows I am doing, low on shawls and place mats. I always seem to under estimate how many mats I need. As for the shawls? I just didn’t have the energy.
Another way to look at my season is that I have done five of the 10 sales days. So, reckoning that way, I’m really only half way through my season.
As a craftsperson I work all year getting inventory ready. Bills come in, money goes out. And hopefully these three shows will be my ‘pay day’.
But you never really know how things will go.
So…plan B is to get home, take beauty shots, update my ‘shop’ on the Circle Craft website. Because I’m pretty sure there will be tea towels left over at the end of this fair.
