Drop a stitch podcast

We're back from our family vacation from Chile! We had so much fun together on this 2.5 weeklong trip. In this episode we recap all that we did; the activities, the food, the drinks and of course the yarn-y goodness. Though our focus wasn't on knitting or crocheting, we still finished some projects, crocheted some granny squares for charity, and visited a yarn store.

Today marks the last episode in our Market 101 Series: the Q & A portion. A few weeks ago, we asked you what questions (if any) you still had following this series, and today we give your our answers. We got some really good questions such as: What if shoplifting is an issue in your area? What do you do to pass time at a slower market? Do you really have to make items in all the sizes? and so much more! Plus, this is our last episode for this season (we'll be back next year, don't worry)!

Did you know market hangovers are a real thing? In between the frenzy of making stock and prepping for your market then setting up, spending the day serving customers, re-arranging your table and doing all the things before taking everything back down again and putting it away safely once you're back home, it's normal you're exhausted. As much fun as markets are, they are work, you're essentially setting up a store and taking it down at the end of the day, that's no small feat. In today's episode, we talk about some of the very important things you should be doing either right after your market or shortly thereafter to save you a lot of work and possible headaches in the future. These things may not be imperative, but they are sure to make your life easier next time and we can promise your future self will thank you.
