One woman sweat shop
I’m back at it, making my On The Town Knitting Bags in my one woman sweat shop. I have a lot of fabric cut and ready to be sewn. 80% of that is brocade and satin.
Once all the brocade and satin has be used up, the brocade bags will be no more. They’re retiring. All good things must come to an end.
I will try to get them ALL made, or at least a lot of them made, and then open the shop. I anticipate that they will go rather quickly as a lot of people have been waiting for more bags to be available. If you want to be notified when the shop opens, go and get on the list. It will be at least a week before the shop opens. Maybe two. The bags take a fair bit of time to make, so please continue to be patient. But if you’re waiting, get on the list now.
Don’t worry, I will continue to make the casual version, the denim & cotton bags. I will also be working on a new all cotton version as well, and some completely new bags.
And a little sneak preview for you blog readers, there will possibly… maybe… be a PDF pattern (and/or kit) in the future so you crafty people can make your own On The Town Knitting Bags. Maybe. Just maybe. Lots of work to do before that’s a go yet, it looks very likely, but don’t hold your breath.
Unless you can hold it for a verrrrrry. loooooong. time.
HI! Thanks so much for your sock tutorials!! (particularly 4 dpns tutorial) ….could you help me?? I’m a very new knitter…scarves dishtowels and hats…I’ve been working with your tutorial and was doing soooo well until I finished turning the heal and realized that I was not doing that last p1 on the purl rows. So of course I don’t have the correct ammount of stitches left, nor the correct pattern. Im wondering if you can tell me how to take it out? Or how far to take it out so I don’t have to scrap the whole project. As I said, I’m very new at this and the only thing I have had to correct before was a simple knit row…:S I would so appreciate any advice you have!
