Knitwear nearly finished - cards will be charged at the end of the month!
Hey everyone!
Thanks so much for your patience hearing from me! It's been a hectic time after giving birth but I've still been keeping things moving behind the scenes.
The good news is the cardigans and sweaters are all due to be finished on the 20th of October, yay! Which is perfectly on time. They'll still take a month to reach me, so we should still be on time to start shipping in December.
If these are Christmas presents - PLEASE LET ME KNOW so I can prioritise your package!
Tl:DR: I won't be able to focus on fulfilling this campaign full time, so it will take me a while to get packages out.
This delivery will contain a staggering 71 boxes of knitwear, and that doesn't include the socks which are already on their way. That's enough to fill an entire room in my house and then some, so my parents have kindly let me ship everything to them so my house won't become a hazard for my entire family.
This means I will be travelling there to complete fulfilment 2 days a week while my children are in nursery. While this doesn't sound like much, I can get a lot packaged in this time. I still hope to send out 5-10 packages per day, but this means it'll take me well over a month to get through all orders.
So some people may receive their orders mid-December, some may receive them at the end of January.
If you want your order on time for Christmas please let me know before November so I can pick out your item(s) when the boxes arrive. Once the boxes are stored in my parents house I will fulfil orders box by box as digging through them may be impossible and/or very time consuming.
Cards will be charged at the end of this month!
I will be charging cards on the 31st to give everyone enough time to sort out any payment errors before shipping begins.
Thanks so much to everyone who’s filled in their surveys so far, it’s a huge help and means I can start the ordering process very soon.
I wanted to post photos of the Wolf Cardigan as it seems my old mock-up caused a bit of confusion about the shape, it will be the same as all my other cardigans I have made so far:
(Apologies about the not-very-professional photos, time and planning is lacking when you’ve got a teeny three month old 😅 I also hope uploading these from my phone will work)
I am however very happy with how it’s turned out! It’s a favourite amongst my family members and I have no changes from this sample to the final version.
Socks are next, those samples have just arrived but I’ve got a few changes to make.
Just to clarify - while the jumpers of the Twilight Trio Dragons are limited edition, their sock counterparts aren’t.
Thanks so much again everyone for all your support!
Thanks SO much everyone for this final push! Socks are unlocked and I’m excited to get things ordered as soon as the surveys go out.
Quick reminder on shipping charges:
Shipping and customs / tariffs are not included in your initial pledge as these vary depending on what is added in the survey. For a rough guide on shipping charges, please see the shipping section of the campaign.
I will be sending all packages (including EU packages) with duties paid, so you shouldn’t have additional charges when your packages get to you.
Tariffs and customs vary between 20% and 30% so please bear this additional cost in mind as well when pledging.
I will also be charging shipping and tariffs later on in the year to make sure that the tariff charges in particular are accurate (since they seem to change at the drop of a hat at the moment!).
If anyone has any concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out and I will do what I can!
Thanks so much for your feedback on the socks! I have decided to add them as one lump stretch goal, it's all or nothing with these so I'm hoping we reach the goal (if we come close but fall slightly short, I will self fund the remainder)
Plus, I have added some extra enamel pins:
The circular pins will also be made into phone grips, so I am very excited about those!
Thanks again for all your support so far <3 Into the final stretch now!
I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported this campaign so far, I'm beyond grateful to all of you for helping make these cosy cardigans & sweaters, and I am happy to say ALL designs have been unlocked!
Which brings me to further possible stretch goals:
The first is a wolf cardigan! I really love how the second dragon cardigan came out and I just couldn't resist making a wolf cardigan in similar colours & style.
The second, which I wanted to ask everyone about, is: matching socks?
This is something I did for the last campaign. The only struggle I had was that since they are made with a different manufacturer, the colours do not match perfectly. So while the designs reflect each other, they won't be entirely identical. So, I wanted to ask if it's something you'd be interested in either way!
And if so, what kind of socks?? Normal? Slipper socks? Or Trainer / ankle socks?

Hi hi! I'm so excited for these cardigan designs :) When we're closer to the shipping time, will we be able to combine shipping with other orders from your shop? And if so, how much would notebooks/prints increase the shipping cost? Hope all is well!

Hi!
I just completed the survey and am curious about how you are determining the returning backer info? I backed the previous project without an account (but with the same email). Will that be an issue?
