Well, well, so here it is November and my self imposed deadline of October 31 and having every declutter item either sold or donated has come and gone. I still have stuff here, poor me, because of one of these two reasons: 1) My listing price was too high and the item did not get any bids or 2) I didn't list it and it's still sitting here. So the bad news is I missed my deadline, but the good news is I'm going to allow myself some grace and give it two more weeks. My new, amended promise to me is if I can't sell by the week before Thanksgiving, I will donate it. There's not too much left save a few small things that need price reductions and two big ticket items that needed a shipping cost readjustment (a potential buyer alerted me to that) and now fingers crossed they will sell.
You might be wondering how I did and if it was worth the work. I'm going to be honest with you because you might be on the fence about selling your items.

First thing to share is my next project that begins with this lovely group of yarn, Brooklyn Tweed Loft and Rowan Kidsilk Haze. I'll put both strands together to make a wooly yarn with a halo to make Tursa, below. Isn't this lady simply gorgeous? The model is the designer! |
This coat is swoonworthy, but all her designs are swoonworthy and if you don't already follow Natasha Hornby from Moonstruck Knits, you should! When I saw this, I knew it had to be mine. I had a little more than half of the yarn in my stash and ordered the rest. I'm hoping my colors will somewhat match hers and if it's half as pretty, I'll be happy. Before plunging in I have to sit for an hour or so and read through the pattern to understand the construction. Now with shorter days, this will be a cozy project to sink my teeth into. Can't wait. |
