I’ve been away for a couple of days because I had to spin some new yarns for my Etsy shop.
I wanted to add some 2-ply to my collection (2-ply are getting a lot of hearts on Etsy), but I had forgotten how hard and time consuming is handspinning this kind of yarns.
I’m now plying my first one…
… and have another bag of predrafted handpainted roving waiting for me:
They’re turning out wonderful, but my backache is growing. Silly of me!
I can’t believe it! I did it!
At last my Etsy shop is now fully working.
I’ve spent the whole day uploading photos, descriptions, prices, gauges and tags, feeling both slightly proud and very frightened of what would be coming out.
Now it’s all over and I’m so tired that I can hardly find the energies to write this post.
Two of my yarns have already been bought.
I still can’t believe that. There must have been a mistake.
I know this might be just a happy coincidence and that I will have to work hard for promoting my shop.
Anyway, should it be true, I would like to celebrate … if only I could stop yawning.
See you tomorrow…
I’m still writing descriptions and setting prices for my yarns, so do not have much time to blog.
However, I couldn’t resist to show up how lovely my handmade labels look once wrapped around the hanks:
I love them!
P.S.:No need to say that anyone can make these labels, maybe much better than I did.
I know…
But they are MY handmade labels, and I’m feeling foolishly proud.
