So Close!

Our total now? $749.50! So close...but then we do have to account for etsy fees ($26.76 so far) and paypal and shipping reimbursements (I don't have those totals). I'm still impressed. I'm still waiting to add a few more items that have been promised. I want some yarn! (Oops, it's not supposed to be all about me, is it?)

But if that yarn materializes, I'll knit through the night to get this reversible cabled scarf finished to add to the sale:

It's knit with a soy wool blend in loooong color repeats of cream, pink, green, and tan. Depending on how quickly that yarn materializes, it'll be between 4 and 6 feet long. *g*

As of today, our sales include:

1 stole
8 scarves
1 sachet
3 baby items
2 felted bowls
1 pair socks
3 sets of snowflakes
3 Christmas ornaments
3 ruckuses
1 market bag
2 felted bags
1 child's winter play set
1 iPod cozy
1 sweater
2 dozen cookies

There's still some cute stuff available on our Etsy site. If you have any questions, leave a comment here or convo via etsy. We'll track down the info for you.

Thanks to all who've crafted and those who've bought our stuff!

WOW!

I don't know that anyone actually had a goal for our Striped Socks fundraiser, per se, but I was crossing my fingers hoping to clear a few hundred. Well, we've blown through that - so far we've raised over $400 for TBAF, and we're not sold out yet! We keep getting more hand knit and crocheted donations, so the sale is still going on. If we're lucky, before this sale is declared done, Scarlett may have some of her yarn for us to drool over buy.


So far we've sold:

2 Christmas ornaments
5 crocheted snowflakes
2 baby items
1 pair of socks
1 felted bowl
1 lavender sachet
6 scarves (are y'all cold?)
2 dozen cookies (long story, but TBAF got $15!)

and one very beautiful stole:

NeptuneNancy's stole never made it on the blog in its finished form because it came off the blocking pins, was photographed, listed, and sold within hours!

I'm sure she's working on another one right now, right? Okay, maybe for next year?
