Etsy Knitters Team Newsletter – March 2009

[Marie, KnittedGems]

Thank you for subscribing to the Etsy Knitters Newsletter.

This newsletter is the team’s first publication. Future publications
will be sent out on a monthly basis.

NEWS:

The team blog (http://etsyknitters.blogspot.com) received a make-over
last week. Due to redundancy, removed from the blog was the long list
of member’s Etsy store names. In its place, the following new features
were added:
1. Link to the Etsy Team page where the list of team members, with
links to each of their stores, can be viewed
2. List of blogs authored by team members. Each entry in the list
includes the name of the blog, the title of the latest post added, and
direct links to both the blog and the post. The most recently updated
blog is listed first.
3. List of websites owned by team members.


The Etsy Knitters Team was mentioned in an article written by the Fast
Company. During an interview, Maria Thomas, the CEO of Etsy,
referenced the trunk show that the Etsy Knitters Team held in December
2008. To read the full article, go here (http://www.fastcompany.com/

The Etsy Knitters Team is proud to announce that they will be hosting
the 2nd annual virtual KiP (Knitting in Public) Day on June 13, 2009.
Mark your calendars! To read more about the event, please see the team
blog (http://etsyknitters.blogspot.com/2009/03/knit-in-public-with-
etsy-knitters-team.html) or the WWKIPD site (http://www.wwkipday.com/
find_kip.htm?kipid=908).


Lastly, don’t forget that the Etsy Knitters Team hosts a thread every
Thursday within the Etsy Forums. Titled TBL or Through Back Loop
Thursdays, it is a day for team members to show off their latest
designs and creations. This week’s TBL can be found here:

Have a wonderful weekend,
