I JUST MADE MY 50th SALE!!!!

I'm so EXCITED, I just made my 50th SALE on etsy!!!

For now this is something that I just do on the side, but one day... my dream is to devote all my time to growing and developing Knitti Gritti into a household name... that actually sounds nice.. the House Of Knitti Gritti.. hmmm... ;~)


My idea to have lower priced, in stock items seems to really be popular.. but the designer in me craves the stimulation that the custom designs that started Knitti Gritti in the first place. Soo.. as a compromise, I've branched out a teensy bit and have begun to make more custom-looking items, like this one:

Hand Knit Natural Hair Accessories Headband: Silky Gypsy Style Hair Band & Neck Scarf (Pink Purple Gold)

I hope you all will like the direction Knitti Gritti is going in.. but only time and (YOU!) will tell! :~)

Guess who's back.. Back again lol

It's been a looong and crazy 6 months, but my personal life has settled down enough for me to be able to focus again on one of my true loves - knitting :)


I'm back in my lil workshop (really, I actually have one - you should see all the yarn in my garage!) and knitting away like a happy little.. what knits? Hmm... Happy little spider maybe? They weave technically, but I digress (I just got off of a 10 hour shift at work, and I'm known to ramble on the best of days) 


Anywaayy...




I've gone in  bit of a different direction this summer; Less costly, in stock items - I'm on a Gypsy Scarf kick right now - with the option for my custom pieces too. Here's a Gypsy scarf style available for purchase in stock:  

BOGO SALE Natural Hair Accessories Headband: Gypsy Scarf - Delicate Fringed Hair Band & Neck Scarf (White)

And another:

BOGO SALE Natural Hair Accessories: Gypsy Scarf for Hair or Neck (Green Blue Gold)

There's more stuff too, of course. My main concern of course is finding cute ways to wear my hair with out having to do too much styling (who has the time???) 

I love to coordinate my outfits with pops of color and texture, and of course, I KNOW I'm not the only one out here who feels that way. The main issue being of course, that it's hard to find things that are unique enough for me to want to wear them. I HATE doing just the "same ol' thing", U know?

If you feel like I do, and I'm sure plenty of you do, stop by the shop, see if anything catches your eye, and if not, just drop me a line. A custom order is always more fun anyway... ;~)

K, gotta go beddy bye now see ya'll next time

WANT TO GET THE LOOK, BUT DON'T KNOW HOW??? TAKE A LOOK AT THIS VIDEO!

So often people come up to me and say, "Ivette, I absolutely LOVE your scarf, it's so beautiful! Can you show ME how to tie it up like that???" And of course I immediately whip my scarf off and give a quick demo *smile*

For the REST of you lovelies out there, who I (unfortunately) don't have the pleasure of seeing face-to-face, an awesome video tutorial was created! Yup, one of my repeat customers, Laquita (who is also becoming a great friend) loved her very first Knitti Gritti Bohemian Head Wrap so much, that she put together an amazing video review AND then went on to make a tutorial for you all that gives you step-by-step instructions on how to tie it! Laquita even went a step FURTHER by showing two tying variations!

1.   The Bun/Knot Style
2.   The Turban Style

You all have got to admit, she's pretty amazing for doing all of that, right? In addition to loving her Knitti Gritti scarves, Laquita is the creator of Bobeam (Bo-bee-um) Hair Products :o)
