This month surprised me with lots of sales. I started see them coming at the end of November, but it was for the weekend of my birthday (December 5th) that they really kicked off! Well, is not that I became millionaire (I wish!) but it is really encouraging! I sold lots of scarves and I’m kind off running out of yarn, which is wonderful! I’m thinking that I won’t be buying much more, so I can concentrate on making mosaics and developing a new line for next winter. How cool does that sound?

But the BEST part of this month, have been my costumer’s emails. If the sales are the bread and butter, these emails are the marmalade! It feels so good when someone takes the time to write you and tell you how much they liked their scarf (I have this kind of reaction with my scarves, mostly), how they used them, how you help them to make a special gift….

One particular client wrote me the other day, and even sent me a picture! I thought it was so cool that I had to post it here, and he agreed, so here it is:

So I have to say… I received your scarf a few weeks back.. Im addicted to it!
It is a black white and red ring scarf… Which just happens to be my trademark colors.. ( my website, my promo pieces, my bizz cards ) (I’m a photographer)

I love this thing so much I hope you never stop making them.. Im going to try to purchase one or two more after the holidays. I wear it a few different ways but the really cool thing is…. when I find myself inside… like on a recent trek through the Brooklyn Museum… It got to be to warm… sooooo
I threaded one end of it through my belt loop!!!! Made for an instant Steven Tyler/ Nikki Sixx rock n roll look! Really snazzy was JUST long enough to keep from touching the ground ( Im only 5′8″ )and it looked soooo rock and roll!
I wish I had a pic to show you. I AM attaching one image of me wearing it. Hope you enjoy! If these things were half off Id probably wipe you out!

So guess who’s the one on the picture? Jason!!!! Thanks so much Jason, you cheered me up!

So you all people who own a “Sol del Sur original” as someone told me the other day… send your pictures! Tell me your story! It will just pay off all my work… I love it!
