It’s been quite busy here at Yarn Harvest since our last post. We’ve been working very hard to build up our yarn inventory over the past couple of weeks, as well as making sure that we can open our online store soon.
We will be setting up shop this Thursday at the First Thursday festivities on South Congress, here in Austin. This will be the first event where our yarn is for sale since the Best Little Yarn Crawl in October. We will be setting up in a tent at the tent-vendor space next to the restaurant Vespaio’s, which is on the corner of Congress and Milton. See the map below. We should be up and running around 5:30pm and we will stay until around 10:00pm. Since we will not be able to set up with wireless internet, we’ll only be accepting cash and checks this time around.
Our next big milestone after this First Thursday will be the opening of our online store. We are expecting to do so over the next two weeks. We wish we could smash a bottle of champagne against our store as we launch it out into the great, wide internet, but being a virtual store, we’ll have to make do with a toast. In honor of launching our website, Sean and I are working on knitting koozies, so that we can toast each other with creations of our own yarn.
Our next blog post will feature those very koozies, which also happen to be our very first knitting projects ever. Stay tuned…
Cheers,
Greg and Sean
