My next collab was for a pair of penguin longies in Bobby Dazzlers Tundra yarn. I listed it, went on to CNT to pop it on the WAHM Collab thread and then went back to edit my listing. Before I'd even finished my edit they'd sold!!! It was mere seconds! Amazing.......BUT THEN calamity! Another order came through for them! It seems that since I was editting the listing at the point they sold when I clicked to update it (ignorant of the fact they HAD sold) I inadvertently relisted them!!!
So next came an evening of frantic emails and much concern that I was going to have to disappoint a customer. But then (sound of superhero type music!) Emma from Bobby Dazzlers emaile dto say that she had another 2 skeins and trim of tundra she'd done at the same time and hadn't yet listed.......oh the highs! So phew....all's well that ends well. There are now two pairs to make so it was no evening off last night after all!
Here's a progress pic of pair #1. The yarn for pair #2 is being sent out tomorrow. I should be able to complete both within the week I originally promised.
It's a veritable (collective noun for penguins anyone?!).......
I have also sorted another couple of ABK collabs. One girly one (can't wait - been doing lots of boys stuff lately!) and she's going to make me something for a pair of footies I've made. I've also had a message from picklepaints and we're looking at getting one last collab in before the month is out! Lots to do - I love it!
