    Sounds like you had a great weekend. Congratulations! The One of a Kind show in Toronto is a phenomenal show & hard to get into I understand. I don’t believe you have to be there the entire time. You can pick your days. It is expensive though & of course you have to get there & stay someplace all of which is costly. But being asked is quite an honour!

      A show that size would be too much. I hardly have enough stock for the shows I do!

    I did not have any doubt that you would have done well at the your market. I was so riveted by your market wrap-up that I sat in my car to watch the whole thing instead of waiting to go indoors. 😉.
    Congratulations, Diane.💖🍾

    So glad you did well at your market.....that is a lot of mittens! I have been to the One of a Kind show in Toronto years ago and remember how big it was and all the walking we did and so many people. Like Judy said..quite an honour to be asked! I can see why your mittens are so popular and your booth set up is really nice. I love the fox coasters and how wonderful of the gentleman to do that piece for you and give it to you! Better get knitting some more mittens for the next market!!

    Wow Diane, I'm so happy for you, what a successful market ! Have you thought about opening an online store, even if you just direct people there when you're out of stock of something. You could make it pick up by arrangement so you don't need to worry about shipping.
    I think you need to set aside time each week throughout the year to only knit mittens so that you have enough stock for these markets.
    Very happy for you with your lovely experiences ❤

    I’m so happy for your successful market! That idea to go 100% mittens sounds wise. You’ve got something pretty special there. Other than they’re being adorable I’m trying to put my finger on why I’m so drawn to them. Perhaps it’s the instant puppet/friend on a little one’s hand that speaks to me. I always did love puppets…well…till chucky came along! Anyway, well done. Ps. I had to rewind for a second look at your lighting, 😂.

    Hi Diane! Awesome work on your market! The One of A Kind show is very big in Toronto. I think I went there so many years ago. You did well to be invited to that. If you do decide to go, I may be able to offer you a place to stay. Gotta ask my mom first. 😊 But with big shows come big fees for a booth. Good Luck with your next one. ❤
