I was gonna get 3.5 yards of it (so the wraps will be 10 and a half feet long), make a pair for myself and then make as many pairs as I can. The fabric is 60" wide and I usually make 4" wide strips so a pair would only take 8 of those 60 inches, leaving me with 52 to work with (6 more pairs). I'm thinking about ordering the lighter green of the two.

Right on. Well let me know what color you go with and if you get extras made.

Decided on the lighter of the greens just to add more color to my kit. Extras will be made and they should be done by Yule.

Well...either my card or their website is blowing a certain something hard. I haven't been able to order the wool yet because my order keeps cancelling itself for some ungodly reason. Dronning, I read somewhere that there will be small merchanting allowed at this year's Yule, is that still happening? If so, is it an item for item sale only or can cash be involved in the sales?

That is a question for the Ulfric, but I don't see why cash can't exchange hands. This isn't Rag.

Update: Wool is ordered. This is the wool the winningas will be made of: www.fabricmartfabrics.com/xcart/300419-shetland-wool-rughooking-herringbone.htmlThey'll be 3.5 yards long (10.5 feet) and will have a serged edge that will also be sewn under since I've noticed the serge edge failing on my one year old pair that I currently have. They won't come with ties since I'm planning on not having any extra to make ties from and wool ties like to fall apart. If you want ties on your winningas contact me and I'll make some with shoe laces sewn on them for ties (they work very well). I haven't quite nailed the price down yet, but they'll definitely be under $20 (even shipped!). Also, the shoe lace ties option might bring the price up by a dollar or two, depending on what the price of the laces will be. I /should/ have 7 pairs after making myself one, just to let everyone know the stock. I will also try my hardest to be at this year's Yule, so if you choose to get a pair from me you can pay there. |

Wool came in this week, though I probably won't be able to get the winningas done until sometime around thanksgiving. More info to come.
