I’ve removed the password protection on the directory, the products are in, and my shop for doll knits is finally open! This will only be of interest to doll owners, but it’s been a slog, and more than once I’ve wondered why I didn’t just use a pre-packaged “e-commerce solution”. I think mostly I was rebelling against the notion of using a “solution”, but the result is good and all my own work. It’s based on a wordpress install, so I can’t take credit for coding a site from scratch, but I think it’s pretty good, and it does what I need it to.

There are only nine items up, but I decided to focus on getting the vehicle up and running smoothly. I have a number of things on the go, and they’ll be put up as and when they’re finished.

I’m looking forward to a relaxing weekend spent with a friend in Cambridge, but for now I need to start catching up on all the correspondence I’ve been neglecting (oo-er!). I hope to get my modifications of the Modern Lace Henley written up in the next few days, and I may have another finished knit (human-size) to share too.

Phew!
