I finally opened up my Etsy store and I'm thrilled. There's a lot more to upload, but it's a start. From now on you can buy original patterns, knit kits, ready to wear and embroidery kits from SAS Knits It Again with just a few mouse clicks. (start by clicking the side bar that says 'Etsy'!)
Untill the shop is fully loaded (so to speak) I also sell by e-mail. That means, just mail me what you'd like and I'll give you the specifics.
Now in the Etsy Store: - Knit Kit 'Octopussss' (original design merino neckwarmer and wristwarmer with one of a kind glass beads)
- JOAN OF ARC Knitting Pattern, very bulky cowl for wo(men) - Embroider-your-own-glow-in-the-dark-neon-Space-Invader-button
About a week ago I commented on one of Abi's (Spiderwoman Knits) posts. In turn she took my comment and blogged about it. Read it and then look at my pictures. Those are 100% real. I'm a master in making things look better then they are. Isn't that part of the fun though?
Blogging is like daydreaming your own life.
I will stand behind a person to make myself look slimmer. I will push away the clutter to one side and photograph a project in an apparently clean and tidy house. I will photograph myself 10.000 times until I am slightly satisfied.
I would never photo-shop myself or my kids though. Boyfriend dear once opted: 'I love that picture of Wee One, let's enlarge it. I'll just 'shop' that crumb from his face.' My jaw dropped down. There's a lot of ways you can photo-shop your life, but you'll have to make real memories. With real memories go real pictures. With real people on them.
(I was planning to post a picture of my face early in the morning, I hope you'll forgive me for chickening out...!)
Who likes white? Clean, fresh, friendly? Who likes black? Sophisticated, rocky, original?
My aim is to slowly turn my blog into a website that contains a blog instead of a blog that wants to be a website. I'm questioning the look and feel and so SAS Knits It Again is going white just for the time being.
