Hello fellow Etsy knitters! glad to be part of this team :) I've been knitting since I was a kid but it has recently turned into a full-blown obsession! I'm sure you can all relate! I started my Etsy store back in August to support my yarn buying habits (haha makes me sound like a drug addict!)

Here's a link to my Etsy store:

I also have a knitting blog:

Hello!

My name is Ann and I'm happy to be in this team!
Obviously I knit, if I'm here.

I live in Estonia, Europe and besides knitting myself, I design knitting patterns for Canadian yarn company Koigu (first magazine coming out in spring 2011).

Hello and thank you for letting me join your team. I'm from Estonia, Europe. In addition to knitting I also crochet but I prefer knitting. I started my store in November and really hope to get it running. Any help. advice and critique is welcome!

[KnitzyBlonde]

Hi everyone, I'm Sandie (KnitzyBlonde). I've been on Etsy since 2007 and I have 2 shops. My other shop is ZaftigDelights (Jewelry and plus size clothing), and I live in California (San Diego area). I've been knitting and sewing for well over 40 years.

My KnitzyBlonde shop sells my hand knit accessories, mostly baby hats, scarves, hats and fingerless gloves. I use a lot of premium yarns. I hate to say it, but I have become a bit of a yarn snob. :o) My fav yarn these days are hand died yarns from Madeline Tosh.

You can also find me on Ravelry as KnitzyBlonde, and I'm working on some patterns that I will be selling there and here on Etsy soon.

In my KnitzyBlonde shop, I also sell Knitting Tote bags and notions pouches that I make.

I'm involved in several other Etsy teams, specifically in the areas of shop critiques and helping other sellers. I'm pretty technology savvy and am good at SEO, social media and promotion, photography & photoshop.

I look forward to getting to know you all.

Warm greetings to all. I have been knitting since 1971. I love it so and I like to think of myself as a knitting entrepreneur who "daylights" as a medical office manager. I have given away exponentially more than I have sold, and have sold more locally than on etsy. I feel like I have some unique ideas (many of which have never made it to etsy because they were very time consuming, expensive (yarn snob) and not really sellable unless I get lucky and get noticed by some celebrity! Right now my passion lies with hand made books with handknit covers! I will enjoy looking at your shops!

Hello, everyone! I'm happy to be joining this team.

I opened my etsy store last year, listing knitted items and handspun yarn (and vintage books). I think etsy is a wonderful site and I'm proud to be a part of it both as a buyer and seller. I look forward to becoming active in this team.

My store is http://karendawn.etsy.com

Now I'm going to go check out some of your stores!

[Former_Member]

Hello, I am very new to this team, but not new to etsy or knitting. I have been selling Vintage on etsy for 3 years under the name SwedishGalsAttic. My Swedish father taught me to knit when I was 8 years old and I am now a Grandmother. I have been knitting for friends for years and they prompted me to open my etsy studio, www.etsy.com/shop/SandyBeesStudio . I am thrilled to be part of this team and to be able to communicate with others who love this art form as I do.

Hello again, found myself in this treasury today. If you have time please look and give it some love.

Hello! I just joined the group. I have been knitting since I was 8 years old. I started selling on Etsy Jan. 22, 2011. I make eco-friendly products such as expanding market bags, reusable gift bags, soap savers, and more.

[Former_Member]

Hi guys... I just became a member of the Etsy Knitters Team!
Like so many of you I have been knitting since I was a child. I started to sell my knitting at local craft sales and church functions. Last Christmas season someone mentioned that I should start an Etsy shop and here I am!
My shop is relatively new and I would love any feedback (positive or some constructive criticism...) that you more experienced Etsy folk have to offer...

[Former_Member]

Hello all, I've rejoined the group under my own shop. Was previously in partnership at AnneChristineDesigns and am going it alone. I feature hand knit scarves, cowls and collars, with many using yarn from fellow Etsians. I also have quilted wall handings and a number of charity items handmade by street children in VietNam.
I'm looking forward to being part of this group.
Chris

Hi All! I am relatively new to etsy, I started my shop, EyrieCreations, in November. Just kind of trying to find my niche right now.

[Former_Member]

EyrieCreations, love your stuff! I started in November of 09. My first winter was kind of a bust - I think I had 2 sales. I sort of abandoned the shop for the summer, but came back strong this past fall, and I'm finally seeing some improvement! It's tough being a knitter in the spring and summer, but I think next fall you'll take off :)

[Former_Member]

Hello to all you knitters. I am getting to know Etsy all over again, been here for almost 6 years and just started selling again. I love to knit for my grandkids and I always end up with more than they can wear so I sell it here.
