Getting off the hook

It's with a heavy heart that I've to shut down this blogshop in compliance to the policies laid down by the organisation I work for. I tried emailing and calling but being put on hold for 15 minutes only to be cut off twice just isn't my cup of tea. So, until all the i's have been dotted and all the t's crossed, the 'shop' part remains closed.

I'll still keep in touch, maybe on Instagram, so you'll know what I'm working on. I'm currently overloaded with yarn, yarn and more yarn,,,
There are

• vermillon / grey throw that I'm knitting on the bias. Garter stitch as usual because this yarn is so fine and I'm using 4 balls at a go. More than half done.
• DS' raglan jacket that I've yet to start
• DD's cotton blanket that's going to use almost 2kg of yarn. That's 2 balls of 10 colours in the pattern that she chose. Incidentally, she now prefers the wrong side of the pattern, LOL!
• semi-circle shawl using beautifully dyed tonal yarn that was on sale because it's discontinued 
• semi-circle shawl using deep grey yarn from a cone. Not so portable project that I tried to bring around. I'll just work on this at home.
• knit/purl throw in mustard and navy
• green shrug - I think I'll frog this
• variegated orange shrug - I think I'll frog this too
• rainbow coloured cowl - I think I'll frog this again
• knitting loom shawl - I'll need to figure out how to get it off the loom and I'll have another FO
• book covers wrapped with Uniqlo and Yacht 21 paper bags waiting for the inside covers and paper. I've yet to decide whether to stitch the book together or just O-wire the pages
• multi-coloured pages waiting to be sewn together, now that I've found the string and the wax. What stitch shall I use? Perhaps Coptic in a single colour so it won't fight with the colours and patterns.
• and there are simply too many UFOs to list. Yes, insta is good. Snap and post so you can see progress. My current phone has 13MP which is so much better than the previous 8.

Until next time, stay happy, healthy and continue crafting. 

Thank you for staying with me these years and hope to see you soon!

If life gives you lemons

Two days ago, Singapore passed the Lemon Law.

What this means is that from 1 September 2012, the consumer can get the retailer to repair or replace the defective item. If this is not done 'within a reasonable time or without significant inconvenience' to the consumer, he can choose to either keep the item but demand a discount, or return it for a full refund.

While I've not stated this on the blog, Bunny Bags, with immediate effect, will honour this lemon law. This means that if there are defects within the first 6 months of purchase, email me for a replacement or refund.

To be fair, while I've had numerous compliments (thank you!) I can recall 2 negative feedback. Actually, my customers are very kind.

Customer 1 informed me that the fabric ran in the wash and the colour bled out slightly.

Customer 2 had a burst pouch but thought she overloaded it.

While I triple-sew stress points and take extra care, I'm not able to predict usage nor how the materials I get will function. In some cases I make prototypes so I'll know but I don't do this all the time.

Anway, just for the record, any items purchased from BunnyBags, Tobias' Shoppe or Tiffany's Shoppe will be backed by the lemon law from today.

Have a blessed day!
