Could anyone throw any light on how much yarn exhibitors take? 300 skeins?. 500. 1000. more than that?
SF, are you there?
I don't mind taking lots, but I def. don't want to take too little.
I have a wall planner for this now... just need to work out how many skeins a week to dye over and above what's on the site.

I suspect the short answer is take as much as you sensibly can produce, if you don't have it, you can't sell it, and any overstock is ready for the next event then

I think the average would be 10kg per day of trading, that is what I have been told anyway, and that is what I am working towards, hopefully anyway. I am not woolfest dyeing yet will get to that in the next month or so, lol. my next problem will be how to get it all up there with the tent and kids in tow

I was just wondering how everyone is doing preparing for the woolfest, I am feeling the pressure already and it's only Feb. The majority of the stuff I'll be selling is kits, which i have to design yet, lots of ideas, but not enough time!! The kits that I already sell are also getting a re-style. We're also working hard on getting a shopping cart set up on the website, at the mo i only sell on ebay. i need to book a B and B as well, I was going to camp, but have decided against it. Can any one recommend a place.
