New Product Lines?

Is it weird to launch a completely different product?  I mean really different from what you've been doing?  I've been thinking of launching a completely different product line.  Have any of you done it?  What's you input?  Right now I make candles, and am thinking of moving towards crocheted items.  Specifically slippers.  Is that weird?  The thing is - and you can agree or disagree - when we are crafters and have that imagination I don't think it's limited.  At least not for me.  My imagination and creativity goes in many different directions and I think why restrain it??  Tell me your opinion!
