Meet Our Mascot

Spike, our monster mascot.

Crocheters, Happy Friday Little Luvin Stitches Friends! I am starting this blog early because I have a lot to accomplish over the next 24 hours. I am crocheting restock and new characters while watching tonight’s game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Minnesota Vikings. I happen to also be matched up against my 2nd best friend whose QB is Jalen Hurts (Eagles). We are actually evenly matched and the projection is 50/50. Secretly, I hope they choke.

We are excited to be close to home this weekend at the Ocala Comic Con being held at the World Equestrian Center. I’ll be happy to catch up with many of my former colleagues as well. We anticipate a big weekend for LLS. Lots of product to load and set-up.

Update: I burned candles at both ends and crocheted well into Friday morning to make sure that I had enough plushies for this past weekend so I did not get to finish this blog. Not a great weekend for us. We anticipated big numbers and we fell short. Win some, lose more. The attendance for Comic Con was up but you never know whether people are going to buy. We had more inventory and new plushies even. I was budgeted for 45% over last year. That just means that we have to make it up in the coming months. That’s how running a small business goes. We did get to catch up with a few friends though.

MONSTERS INC.

Spike, our monster mascot, and his friends will be joining the LLS family. We introduced Spike at the I Like it HOT Festival two weekends ago and he is already a fan favorite. Our monster family will be traveling with us to all of our shows. He just came about out of nowhere, searching the internet for ideas and voila, we just thought he’d be cool to have around and then we decided that he needed friends. They aren’t crocheted so we won’t be selling them. These monsters are a hot mess and closely resemble other very notable childrens’ tv characters but we’re gonna use them to engage with our customers and we’ll get creative with incorporating them into our advertising.

Ending soon

We are limited on the amount of orders for our Slasher Plushies. Just a reminder to get those in before you miss out. They are adorably scary.
