Summer Wraps

The most popular item selling at the artisans market this summer are my open lace pattern wraps that can be worn in a variety of different ways. I have been using a silk/rayon blend ribbon yarn and a polyamide yarn with lots of texture. I designed these wraps to be a multi-functional addition to a women's wardrobe. They can be worn as wraps or scarves. That seems to be a popular selling point.

Summer Trends for handknits

It has always been challenging for me to sell my handknits and handwovens during the summer months. I have focused so much of my efforts on my winter line that summer pieces were not a priority. This year I have created a line of wraps that can also be used as scarves and scarves that can also be used as wraps. I have done pretty well selling them at my local artisan's market. I would love to hear from others what has worked for them as I am always looking for ways to increase and improve my business.
