Hello there, teammates!

Welcome to the October Newsletter Recap, where you can find all the most thrilling activity from the past month all in one place! Let’s dive right in, shall we?

-----------Live in the Online Labs-----------

Open Q&A for Winter Holiday Conundrums: We hosted an open Q&A session where we took on your hard-hitting holiday questions and challenges. You can watch the recorded video by visiting this link: http://etsy.me/archive101215.

Thank you Tess for this newsletter.
I really appreciate being mentioned here.
I often think 'I killed a conversation' when nobody sees my post and when I am the last one to comment on something.
If feels good to be recognized and I love to see the creations of other knitters and crocheters. To me it seems amazing how much more patience they have for details and patterns than I do.
Wishing everybody happy sales!

Sorry I will miss another event. This has been an incredibly busy show season for us. Missouri in August, Denver and Houston in September, New Orleans in October, Oklahoma City on Halloween and more to come. I hope to get busy on Etsy again soon.
