Go big or go home.

This Wednesday, I shipped my biggest order yet to the brand, spanking new Make One Yarn Studio in Calgary, Alberta. Not a wholesale order, per se, but a really big order on behalf of the Make One Sock Club members. Whatever isn’t snatched up by the sock club knitters will go in the store starting June 20th… Amy at Make One (bless her!) is also a Buffy fan, so there’s extra Slayer, Willow and Angel in the mix!

All packed up and off to Calgary we go…

Yes, it was a little freaky and a little intimidating, but I wanted to take on this order as a test for myself. I wanted to try and see what making a big order would be like… how difficult… how tiring… how fun… how exciting?

Well, I survived. So slowly (slowly, slowly) but surely, I am going to start taking wholesale orders. The details aren’t all complete yet but should be ready in a couple weeks. In the meantime, if you are interested in setting up a wholesale account or at least receiving a wholesale info package, let me know here: http://sweetgeorgiayarns.com/about/wholesale.php

There’s no dye session this weekend since we are off to the HOW Design Conference in Las Vegas. It’s basically four days of company-sponsored hedonism for 3,000 graphic designers in the middle of the desert. Crazy, crazy. I’ll be the one knitting a sock in the back of the room.
