| Knit4you, edit your original post and put your new store name and url in it. Otherwise people will click on the www, see the store is closed and ignore you. |

Your store looks much better now. I have three suggestions:
Add author/publisher/year to your knitting book titles.
Some of your knitted items do not have measurements. Not all heads are the same size and totes vary greatly in size.
Remove the 98% from your statement about eBay feedback if you are still selling there and replace it with excellent. Feedback percentages change. People get hung up on numbers. |

Thank you for you advice. It is difficult to quickly make every available size. What I had planned was to knit the item is different colors and post a chart of the various head sizes that can be ordered. I plan to knit items as I get orders. Any suggestions? Thanks
I should add verbiage about ordering item in any size and turn around time, however, this is stated in policies. |

| Okay. I thought the items you show were already made. Then made to order should be in each title and details given in the description. That isn't boiler plate but essential to making the sale. That requires the buyer emailing you as there is no drop down menu to make selections from or to fill in. |

My mistake. The first item is already made in order for me to take a picture to the description, however, once that item is sold it will be an order from that point forward. I can easily remake any item as listed when an item is sold. Once the item is sold I will remake another as listed.
I see regarding various sizes. That is why I only have one size. Therefore I need to copy the picture and create a new item for the various sizes instead of listing the sizes in the description.
I will revise listings to include the various sizes. |
