It's Been a Good Month.

So as I mentioned yesterday there has been some very exciting stuff going on round the Danger Studio. 

First of all, you might notice the new link on the right here below the etsy stuff-----> I was approached by Deep South Fibers a distribution company about repping my patterns for wholesale distribution a few weeks ago. Of course this means I have been busy, busy sewing knitting bag samples and getting the knitting patterns onto CD's to be sold in Local Yarn Shops around the country. I got a big box of samples to them just in time for TNNA, the big national knitting wholesale show. It was over this last weekend and my samples were there in the Deep South Fibers booth. I am very excited to hear how it went in the next few days! This also means if you are a Yarn Shop interested in stocking my lines you now can. Yeah!

Second, I was also approached by someone interested in a monster pattern specially designed to be included in their upcoming book (this came just after the distributor, it was a good few days!). So I chatted with them, got something going, got the pattern started, and I am just waiting for the yarn to arrive. I'll let you know more about the book when the author announces it! I love talking to folks across the country and making internet friends! I'll let you know more about the book when the author announces it. How cool is that, Danger Crafts in print? I'm excited.

Thirdly, I have a super secret project in the works that isn't finalized so I am not going to tell you what it is yet. Let's just say I am really excited about it and having a hard time keeping my mouth shut.

Let's see, what else is up? To sell my patterns in LYS (local yarn stores) I decided to do something a little different and put the files I email out from the etsy shop onto CD's instead of printing out paper copies. I think I will list the CD patterns in the etsy shop as well in the next few days so if you want to give my patterns as a gift or something like that you have an actual physical item and don't have to just email it or print it. The files are great, but there is nothing better than having something tangible to give. 

What else....hmmmm. Oh, how about next pattern comes out this Thursday? That's exciting! And, I think I will do a giveaway for it since I haven't done that yet and I keep meaning to.

Alright Danger Readers, I think we're caught up now. I'm off to an afternoon of serious knitting!

Congratulations!!
No one is more deserving.
You have persevered with others told you your dream was not realistic.
Way to prove them wrong!

You rock!!

yay!

another way to publicize yourself is through facebook -- you can make a page for your knitting patterns. and then i can become a fan, and post my little bunny there! i tried to find your knitting page there to no avail, just your profile page.
