K2tog? Nope.

In hopes of promoting my knit pendants I thought it would be a good idea to send out some "samples" to my favorite knitting sites and online knitting personalities. I figured that especially all the knit bloggers who got their start in the knitting business by sharing their projects and musings with strangers online would be receptive. So I sent off a few emails explaining who I am, that I am just one little lady in an apartment trying to get my idea off the ground, and that I would like to share it with them no strings attached. I included my Flickr address and my Etsy address so they could investigate me if they wanted to before giving me their mailing addresses. There was one lady in particular who I had met at a lecture here who I was certain would take my free gift. She seems so personable and easy going in her books and on her blog! She seems so funny and down to earth! Well, forget that. It seems that I don't even warrant a "go sit on a tack" or "no thanks". I had hoped that these people would remember that they got their start because someone gave them a chance. Apparently our community is not as tightly knit as I thought.
