Tooting my own horn

It’s official! Introducing the newly-appointed manager of Tapestry Craft… yours truly. I’m feeling good about the new challenges and a little stressed about the responsibilities, but mostly I’m just stoked about the nice raise. I’ve gone from making 50% of my Epson salary to now making 70%. Hey, at least it’s going in the right direction now, huh?

  1. You go girl!
    You can start by telling me the yardage of a 200g ball of Bendigo Woolen Mills “Rustic” in 8 ply(If you have your sample card handy)-I’m away from home and wondering how much more yarn in contrasting colours I’ll need to buy to make an intarsia vest(I can work that part out on my own though!).
    You’ll be a great manager!
    I’m ever so proud! xoxo

    Congrats, that’s fantastic — much speedier (and merit-related!) career progression than your old, to-remain-unnamed London employer allowed… Very cool!!
