Swipe to see how the EU’s new Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR/EEPR) might change YOUR Etsy shopping experience. 🛍️✨
I’ve been tracking how regulations like GPSR affected listings before. And while the quantity dropped, the quality rose (for a little while). Less junk, more craftsmanship. But this time? I’m predicting a much bigger shake-up, that pushes real craftsmanship out of the market. I hope I'm wrong.
What do you buy or sell on Etsy that you can’t find locally? Let me know, I’ll check how many listings exist now vs. after the regs kick in. Let’s see what disappears.

Monday morning. For me, that means putting aside the purple cardigan I've been knitting, just for me. And picking up my design in progress. I love working on both just as much. But I find it work better overall when I have clear days for 'buisness knitting' and other days for 'fun knitting'.
Do you have specific things you knit at specific times?

I think these little cables look like pasta twists! So, I’m calling this fun little kids’ sweater I’m designing ‘Falafel Fields’. What do you think of the name? Do you see everyday things in your stitches too?
