Patreon Exclusive - Furious Knitters - Merchant and Location - Updated 4/6/2025
🕑 Added 2024-05-12 17:09:43 +0000 UTCWelcome one and all to the new ColdSun-themed location by Gonzeh84, Socalista, and yours truly. Read on for the full details below, but please keep in mind that the requirements for this mod are quite strict due to the nature of the merchant and outfits that she sells.
Location Design By Gonzeh84
The location, Furious Knitters, was designed by Gonzeh84. He used many custom models and assets to put together a beautiful exterior and interior including displays of armors that Ashtoreth and I released. I can't thank him enough for the incredible work he did on this little shop. Please visit him on NexusMods and check out his other unique and excellent mods.
Merchant System and Other Customizations By Socalista
If you haven't seen Socalista's cool merchant location mods for Skyrim you're missing out. The Regional Outfitters mod is extremely cool. Socalista used the same system for Alexandra, the merchant in this mod. She is stocked with many outfits if you have them installed. She will have all of the Ashtoreth/coldsun1187 outfits I've released on Nexus for sale. She will also have over 50 of my favorite outfit mods for sale in her store. You still need to have them installed. Socalista also did all the packages for Alexandra's day and night activities, giving her a real-life feeling of being more than a merchant standing around. She will work on her crafts, go outside and visit the dock, sleep at night, and more.
Alexandra - The Merchant - Designed by coldsun1187
I wanted Alexandra to be a unique looking merchant. We chose Breton as her race and Socalista gave her the elf haughty voice type. I wanted something even more unique to her though. So I came up with the story that she is a former vampire that was cured. Unfortunately, the cure didn't remove a couple of the side effects of being a vampire. First of all, she no longer has the appearance of being a vampire, but still has fangs. She no longer has any vampire abilities, but she does know how to defend herself and her store. She is no longer immortal, but her lifespan has greatly increased to the point that she only looks to be in her twenties by appearance in human standards, but she is actually far older (no one knows exactly how old). Over these long years of her life she learned everything she can about her trade of creating armors and outfits.
Alexandra became famous across Skyrim for creating the armor and outfits of many of the heroes you might see in my mods. The Heartbow Rangers wear a design by Alexandra for example.
Location
You can find the store and Alexandra Northeast if Ivarstead along the shore. I included a map image in the attached images for the exact location. There should be a map marker for you as well.
How This Mod Works
This mod works by checking your installed outfits when you run Skyrim using SkyPatcher. If you have the outfits in our custom configuration list installed, they will show up for sale in Alexandra's store. No worries, you don't have to have ALL the mods. In fact, the only required outfits are the outfits by Ashtoreth and I (listed below in requirements).
Requirements
The list of requirements is larger in this mod than most. As I explained above, this is the nature of the mod itself since the merchant sells unique outfits that are pulled from your existing mods that are installed. You need all the mods below, plus any requirements they have as well.
ColdSun's Visions - Asset Pack (choose the one that fits your body - be sure it is the latest version as I released 2.0 recently)
FSMP - Faster HDT-SMP
XP32 Maximum Skeleton Special Extended - XPMSSE
Racemenu
Skypatcher (so the merchant can sell all the armors)
Relationship Dialogue Overhaul Lite OR Relationship Dialogue Overhaul
Dawn Warrior Armor
Ashtoreth - Mystica Outfit
Ashtoreth - Silent Woods
Ashtoreth - Barbarian Armor
Glasses Pack Vol.1 (For Alexandra's cool glasses)
ELLE - Tavern Maid (For Alexandra's sexy outfit)
Whew, I know that was a long list. Sorry folks! I promise it will be worth it so you have an immersive in-game way of obtaining the armors and outfits. This will also help you if you pick up Socalista's other outfitter merchant mods. So no matter what, if you have the above requirements, the outfits that Ashtoreth and I made will appear for sale from Alexandra. I've included a text file that lists all the other armors that are in the mod in case you want to go and find them so her store has more outfits for sale.
Support
Support will be through our Discord. If you leave me a message here on Patreon, I will try to answer it, but remember I only did the NPC part of this mod. Thanks!
Files
The armor list is in the attached files below. The store mod is hosted on Mediafire due to the file size.
UPDATE: Please grab the Asset Pack 3.0 Patch below in the attachments. This fixes a black face issue.

You might try this mod and/or run the grass cache that comes with it. https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/42161

Nice place and merchant but there's grass growing inside the house and grass hanging in the air outside. I'm using Veydosebrom regions. grass mod. Anyone know how to fix this?

Glad you like it! Can you explain what you mean in using it for other characters in the future? I'm always looking for new ideas. :)

Awesome character and building mod. Freaked out in a good way when I saw all items on the vendor. I know this is a Patreon Exclusive but hope you use this location for other characters in the future.
