am getting a sample sent through so I can work out if the pattern needs folding in bizarre origami to fit, but its looking the most promising so far, I like th emix of nice eco wossname jute plus a window so you can see whats inside. |
Ok, I'd be concerned that the material of that would be coarse and catch on the yarn and cause little pulls in it. Also, would a fine sock needle go through the material, it's coarse woven. Although your dpn's for aran won't be that fine, i'd like to use a nice bag for sock weight needles, 2-2.5mm ones. It looks like a lovelly idea, but is it practical? please test it for that.
If you do get those bags, make up some as samples, but keep a lot of the yarn out so it's colours can call customers over to it and so knitters that shop by touch can feel it.
i'm a by touch shopper, I tend to impulse buy only when i get to hold and stroke a yarn. dosen't even have to be anything particularly soft or special, bog standard yarns get this treatment as well, i just have to let it talk to me, tell me what it wants to be made into and whether it wants to be with me. I've walked away from stalls before when there wasn't yarn I could feel out on the table, it was all packaged up in kits and the assistants uhm'd and aaahh'd at me when i asked to feel it. When you know you have me is when I start to cuddle it like a kitten.
