yippy!! my first sale!!

happy thursday everyone ^^/

it's been exactly one week since i opened my new Etsy shop, http://www.ginger1990.etsy.com/, and i'm super excited to announce that i've just made my very first sale evar!!




la petite vache is doing a happy cow dance today in celebration ^.^

if you've been follow my blog since the beginning (or if you taken to the time to read through all my posts) you'll know that this little Etsy venture has been a dream of mine for the last 9 months or so, and i'm just thrilled and encouraged by the support i've been getting from my blog followers and all my friends on Ravelry. i honestly thought that it would take much longer for me to pass this first sale milestone, expecially considering i haven't really done much advertising for it yet. so when i woke up this morning and saw the email in my inbox about this sale it was such a splendid surprise.

i just wanted to take this time to thank all my followers and friends, and especially my friend Sarah from The Student Knitter. without your advice and encouragement i may never have had the courage to embark on this adventure, so thank you from the bottom of my heart for believing in me, even when i didn't believe in myself.

on another note, i've got a brand new, revolutionary design that i'm going to be submitting to the KnitPicks independant designer program very soon, and i'll be doing a sneak preview of this design sometime in the next week. so make sure to check back with the blog for that and to see if you've won one of the sets of detanglers that i'm giving away as part of my grand opening promotion :)

peace & love to all,

~Carla
