Going to be working on a new size chart.
8 years ago
My size chart is REALLY dated and over the last few years my 'Normal' size has varied widely.
So as long as I don't have any commissions to work on I'm going to to be working on some tails that are all the relative same length (18" is what I'll be shooting for) but each will represent the 4 different widths that I offer.
From now on I will have a set amount of yarn / weight of yarn that I will be using for each size. Hopefully this will help reduce the variation. There will still be some variation as the tightness of the braid also affects width. I've been experimenting with different braid tightness and what I now prefer is to have it be tighter and the top and bottom and looser in the middle to give my tails more shape. This will make my tails slightly more stiff but I haven't really noticed any major loss in sway and flow of my tails.
All of these tails will be for sale in my etsy shop AFTER I have completed all four of them and gotten pictures of them together for my new size chart. I will be making them with yarn I already have in stock.
I am currently working the the normal width one and will have a preview within the next couple of days.
Ideas for what you'd like to see for the Thin, Thick, and Extra thick tails are very welcome (keeping in mind the 18" length). In the end though I have to go with what I can make from my current yarn stock as my husband won't let me buy anymore yarn unless it's specifically for a commission.
And of course commissions are still open.
