What will be available for the hunt?



KNITS: Soakers, Longies,Shorts,Skirts,Skorts; limited instocks available but ORDERS accepted at all times with fast turn around; knitted and crocheted.
Our knits enjoy an excellent reputation and are made by 2 highly experienced knitters, with personal service for all customers. Fantastic prices with our well known Colours of Australia soakers only $20, shorts only $25.
Our knits are always available to order.

KKs. The fabulous KK (Keester Kovers) windpro AIO will be sold from instocks only during the hunt. They will not be listed in large quantities as there is only one of me; so I will add different ones as they are made. Large size instock from first week of hunt, med longs will follow. If sold out please do check back as stock will be added randomly. No KK will be priced over $30 (excluding postage).
This may be the last chance to get a KK for a while as I plan to cut back on sewing during April.

Jewellery:Some jewellery will be available on our Minicuteture store during the hunt; again listed randomly

POSSUM POUCHES products are proudly Australian owned and made.
A percentage of all sales goes directly to charities selected each month, all year.

Nappy Hunt time- and a $10 soaker


March is nappy hunt month.
For the month of March I have decided to change from my normal way of doing things and will be selling KKs only as INSTOCKS.Med Longs may not be listed straight away but large should be instock for 1st.
However Knits will, as always be available ANYTIME by order and there will be lots of special prices so please quote your hunt discount code when purchasing.
I hope to have a few jewellery pieces on my minicuteture store as well.
Intro to cloth pack orders are full so will probably not be on offer during the hunt.
I have a couple of family commitments during March so will be away for 2 weekends and possibly on limited internet access at that time. March may be the last chance for a while to get a KK as I am planning to take a break from sewing straight after the hunt.My big O birthday is approaching and I don't want to be too tired to enjoy it.
I will continue to take knitting orders at all times, no breaks there.
The pictured soaker is a gorgeous rainbow and fuchsia one in lovely soft all Australian pure wool- but sadly the rainbow wool is leaking a little pink colour. I had hoped it was just residual dye and would stop after the first wash but there is just a little bit too much pink in it for me to sell it as a first.I thought there may be someone who would be happy to buy it as a second so am offering it for half price at $10. Please don't buy it as a gift for someone else without first checking with them whether they are happy to accept a bit of "bleeding".If you are interested please send me an email from my website; if more than 1 person emails between now and 9am Saturday Qld time I will draw the name out of a hat on Saturday; if nobody emails I will list it on Minicuteture during the hunt. It is regular one size fits most- Rise is approx 50cm.
My hunt is fairly easy; there will be a clue on the home page, scroll down to the bottom of the page to read it; that clue will take you to another page with more clues;these will lead you directly to the icon page.
More clues may be given on the Diaper decisions hunt thread, but not for the first few days.
Happy hunting

Gossamer Dreams February

Gossamer Dreams goes live tonight with theme Sweet Dreams
This will be my last offering for the GD store as this morning I sadly made the decision to withdraw.
I have 2 items, I did have a third but decided not to offer it at this time.
There is one KK AIO in large, with angel fabric trim, and a really pretty pink necklace with sweets shaped beads.
The auction on my Minicuteture Store is still running

A recommendation

I rarely single out wahms and/or their products as there are so many good ones.
However I would like to give a one-off plug.For those of you who knit, do check out The Dye Pot at Minicuteture.
Sara is lovely to deal with and of all the wool I have used hers is my very favourite.
Often you get a great wool from somewhere so you buy more, and suddenly you find it is not as good as when you first bought some. This is not the case with The Dye Pot. Every ball I have bought has been superb in quality,gorgeous colours, knits beautifully and guaranteed not to run; and the service is spot on.
Just leave some for me !!!

Ongoing charity donatioins

As most of you know Possum Pouches always gives a percentage of sales to charity, selecting a different one each month or 2. Jan and Feb had already been allocated to Salvation Army so I have now added March to that time frame, with the donations being divided between the Bushfire Relief for Victoria and the flood relief for North Qld.
This will include any items I make for the Gossamer Dreams stocking this weekend, and sales from Nappy Hunt month.
