Hello again, my dears! My website has had a little work done recently, so I have some nice additions! Like… *deep breath*… a little shop. Right here. Where you can buy pretty yarns, knitwear and weird things I make! I wanted to step away a little bit from the Etsy site and have something a bit more personal. And here it is! It’s still in it’s early, humble stages, but I’m very excited about this step, and as always your comments and opinions are welcome and treasured…
Meanwhile, I’ve been trying to add new skills to my fiber interests. I bought a rigid heddle loom, and have been experimenting with big, drapey shawls. Also, I’ve been playing with embroidery. (In this case, to cheer up a sad friend, but I enjoyed it enough to try to make a few things for sale. Stabbing things over and over in pretty ways is oddly soothing.)
I finished up the Krueger sweater and it’s new owner is very pleased by it. I’m a bit torn between offering the pattern I developed in a pdf or just writing it down on a piece of torn, weathered parchment with some very suspect stains all over it and sending it off in the mail to would-be knitters. Honestly, I think it has to be the second way. Besides, it’s so much fun getting odd things in the mail!! Also, since I have some leftover yarn from the project I should whip up a hat and mitt set for this October. As always, I have too many projects and not enough hands…
Also, I want to thank my sweet husband, Matthew Cohen, for setting up the new site and for his generosity, patience and kindness. None of this would be remotely possible without his help, and I’m lucky beyond words…
So, watch this space for new things to pique your interest!!
