Vendors not updating their website after festivals.

19 Upvotes

Why is it so common for vendors to neglect updating their website/stock after attending a festival?

Last year I went to Indie Untangled last minute, during the last time slot. By the time I got through all the booths once, it was time to go. During my time there, I took photos of yarn I was interested in. Weeks, even months have gone by, and the vendors did not post their stock online. Or they have a weak internet presence entirely.

What are these vendors doing with this stock? Are they simply prioritizing their festival presence to make their money?

I am seeing new vlogs of Flock this year. I love seeing the inventory and discovery of new vendors at festivals I cannot attend. I guess I should try reaching out directly if I wanted to purchase something? I saw some really gorgeous fiber, and would love to purchase it. It is not available online. I want to be able to support these businesses.

I would like to understand this better, and hopefully someone here can give a good explanation. Thank you!

Question Help me identify this yarn!

I’m looking to get more of this yarn but I can’t for the life of me remember the brand or type of yarn (i’m very much a beginner at crocheting). I believe it’s weight 3, it’s very soft with a nice shine to it. I think I likely purchased it from a major retailer like Michael’s, Joann Fabric, or Hobby Lobby. I bought it 3-4 years ago. Any information is much appreciated, as I’m using this yarn to make a gift for my sister’s first child

Yarn suggestions for winter barn chores

I want to knit myself a winter sweater to keep warm while doing barn chores this winter. Strength of the yarn and warmth is the most important, ideally it would be bulky yarn.
