Taking Stock

In an effort to get ready for Portobello this weekend, I have been taking inventory or taking stock, as it were. Apparently I have been busier over the last few months than I thought.

I wanted to ring in spring with fanciful, light scarves and I have added to the nature knits with these three creations.

Pussy Willows
$110.00
Knit in a wool silk blend for the branches and the pussy willows are cashmere and kid mohair. There are 78 separated crafted pussy willows on the branches. What was I thinking? There will only be one of these (ever)

Spring Garden
$80.00
This version is knit in 100% silk tweed, a lengthy vine, 4 separately crafted fantasy florals and some lovely leaves make this the perfect last minute throw on....


I will be making a few more in merino wool with tweed and felting them...Also good for spring wear....And finally

Sea Kelp
$90
This was crocheted free form in an amazing hand painted 100% alpaca. You can wear it in multiple ways and I love the way the kelp curls. This design actually kept surprising me as I was making it. The yarn felt amazing and the whole look so organic, it was literally coming alive as I was crocheting it...

See you at Portobello West this weekend!
