Last night, Sam sat down and knit a brand hat to keep her ears warm today. She used three colors of our Swirl Chunky; Vera, Island Blue and Cedar. She just knit in the round for about 6 or 8 inches and used the 3-needle bind off. Voila. Quick, easy and toasty. What's not to like?
Sam works a couple of days a week at one of our LYS's, Nina. It's a really pretty shop.
I like having someone here that also has a foot in the retail world. I get so focused on what we do here at Lorna's Laces that I sometimes don't do as good a job as I should of seeing what else is around.
That's kind of a double edge sword. I don't want to know TOO much about what other companies are doing because I want to maintain the integrity of our products. At the same time I need to keep my fingers on the pulse of what is making knitters happy. I guess it's a balancing act, just like everything else in life huh?
