Shipping Update
So we’re in one of those good news/bad news spots.
The good news is that I’ve shipped hundreds and hundreds of books, and lots of folks have started to receive them (and I’ve even spotted a few finished curls popping up on ravelry). That is so much fun to see!
Now for the bad news. Remember back in November, just before the preorder, when I said “A pile of books are on their way to me via UPS and are due to arrive early next week. The rest of them are on a boat and are due to arrive early next month. In the (unlikely) event that you guys buy substantially more books than expected during the preorder, some books might ship around the beginning of December rather than at the end of November.” Yeah, that’s happened.
You guys bought way more books than expected (thank you), and I’ve shipped all the books I had on hand from that first portion of the shipment. But, I’ve heard from my printer and the second half has arrived in California and are ready to start heading this way, but they aren’t here yet.
And clearly, I can’t put them in the mail if I don’t yet have them! But they should be here soon. I’m expecting to start shipping again this Friday, and I’m even enlisting the services of The Boy to help speed the process along (an extra set of hands to stuff envelopes is always welcome). I will have everything out to you just as soon as I can. I just wanted to make sure I was keeping everyone up to date as the process wrapped up.
Of all the problems to have, too many book sales sounds like a good one. Ha ha ha.
Folks are being tremendously gracious about the delay, which I very much appreciate. I promise I’m doing my level best to have them out as soon as I can (I want my dining room back, as it’s currently shipping central and not exactly picture perfect).
Congratulations on your success!! Well done! We wish the best for you.
Oh you’re very kind, thank you! I’m so pleased that this one has been so well received.
Awaiting for my copy, but I did order the ebook as well so I could get started on these beautiful patterns. But there truly is nothing better than a book to browse through. I guess mine is one in customs so I will wait patiently.
BTW: Congrats on the Best Seller.
I totally love how the ebook lets people get started right away! And I am doing my absolute best to get everything on its way as soon as possible. I really do appreciate your patience!
Thank you Hunter – I have always had a great experience with ordering all of your past books! And, please thank “The Boy” profusely – this anxious knitter loves her HH books 🙂
Oh thank you, I’m absolutely amazed by how wonderful everyone is being about this. It’s making a tough situation much easier to handle.
And there are new socks on the needles for The Boy right now…I’m not above a little woolly bribery!
