A new wave of custom orders came in, so I'll be knitting my fingers to the bone for the next couple of days. I'm kicking myself for being so slack over the summer and not building up a decent inventory. I wasn't sure how the online sales would be, so I wasn't particularly industrious. Waiting a few months for sales probably encouraged that bad behavior, too. :)
I'll know for next year, I guess. I placed an order, including several superwash yarns and alpaca. I can't wait for new colors, and it'll be nice to have some washable socks listed, again.
I'm finishing up my last custom order today! I finished a few of my personal projects in downtime at doctor's offices and while visiting family, so I'm primed and ready to go on new socks for my shop. And I can't even begin to tell you how many different tabi I have spinning around in my head right now!
I called around about a week ago, and I have found another source for my yarn. This is a pretty big relief, and I'm putting together a huge, celebratory order soon. I can't wait to sink my hands into new, rich colors. I was starting to get a bit panicky about paying retail costs for yarn, and am still itchy from cutting it so close with this order. Hopefully, it arrives in good time and when I'm ready to work with it.
