Sweater update

December 5th, 2011 by Rebekka in Uncategorized

 

I’ve been creating sweaters from Icelandic wool for a good three years now.   After giving this some serious thought, I’ve decided to set myself a limit.

I’m now working on sweaters #78 and #79.   Once I reach #100,  I will no longer continue to offer them.   I feel I’m already spending far too much time knitting instead of working on my photography and other projects, and that’s just not the direction I had in mind for myself.

It’s not that I don’t enjoy making them, the fact that each one is unique and custom-designed keeps things from becoming too boring, but the “painstakingly hand-made”  factor is taking its toll,  stealing far too much time from other potentially time-consuming projects I have lined up in my head clamoring for some attention.

So, in short.  There are 18 sweaters left before I reach 100.  As I mentioned already,  each one has a unique design and color pattern based on the buyers wishes, and is made to fit custom measurements.

Each one comes with a label reading “handmade and designed by Rebekka Guðleifs”  as proof of authenticity.

Current price is 620$ for a zipped hoodie or zipped w/ standup collar.   Pockets are 30$ extra,  thumbholes 15$ extra.  Shipping is usually around 30-40$ depending on where you live.

Preferred method of payment is via Paypal.
