well yesterday's adventure to the wilds of crouch end was interesting...
i sold absoutely zilch at the crafternoon but the crowd/stock just didn't fit and i'll know for the next one (eastertime). both myself and the girl next to me that had handknit items sold nothing - but girlie across from me with the most awesome machine knit felted monster stuffed animals did really really well. her stuff was the cutest and i wish she had a site to link to! i traded her the salt and pepper mustache below for the cutest red plaid monster...and i'm gonna see her again soon as she'd like to learn to crochet - in fact, i had more interest in my crochet clinics than anything else so i'll be doing more of those for sure!
and note for next time: take more amigurumi and jewellry items rather than scarves and bunting...
still, it was a lovely day full of crafty vixens and old friends - and on the way home i spied a couple of my old iknit homegirls in the window so popped over to say HELLO. they'd not seen me in ages and were amazed at my long natural coloured bettie page hair and UK size 8 body!
(last time they saw me i was probably a still a size 16-20)
