Shameless Self Promotion Saturday!

Hey there faithful readers!

I recently tabled at a craft show that was a total bummer of a bust. Total bummer. 😦 That bummer means I still have a whole bunch of great hand crafted stuff already made and so ready to ship out to you. Check out the pictures below–if you’re interested in anything just reply “SOLD” in the comments (let me know which items you’d like) and give me your email address. I accept Paypal and I’ll ship your items the next business day after I receive payment.

There is also plenty of time for custom orders before the holidays!

This is WAY MORE than just a throw pillow!

It’s also a COWL!

I love art/craft that is functional, so I came up with this idea to make a cover for a decorative throw pillow that can also be used as a scarf. Just untie the ribbons to remove from the pillow and wear as a super cozy scarf. The cowl is made with 100% acrylic yarn–perfect for folks with wool allergies (or vegans!). Throw pillow form IS included. Measures approximately 16×16 inches on the pillow.

$55 USD shipped.

!Fiddlehead Fern Bonnet!

The Fiddlehead Fern bonnet is totally one-of-a-kind, knitted out of neon green (a bit like Taco Bell’s Baja Blast soft drink, too!) acrylic yarn. Again, perfect for your pals with wool allergies or vegan tendencies. It will fit a teen to adult sized noggin. Stretchy and soft and sure to turn heads. It would also make a great combo gift with the mittens listed next! ❤

$35 USD shipped.

Now for the mitts/fingerless gloves!

These have quickly become one of my most popular items. Last winter season I knitted a whopping ELEVEN custom pairs between October and January! For a little perspective, it takes me about an hour to knit an inch and I knit REALLY fast. These hand warmers can be made as a custom order and can include individual fingers, and varying cuff lengths. Message me if you have any questions or would like to order a pair made JUST for YOU!

All listed pairs below are one size fits most teens and adults. Each glove measures approximately eight inches at full stretch around the fingers and the wrist.

!Baja Blast & Vertical Stripes!

Features some sparkley bits, Hedgehog Fibres Yarn, & STRIPES!

I just love stripes.

$65 USD shipped.

!Stay Gold!

Inspired by the line from the classic 1980s movie The Outsiders , “Stay Gold” is a way to check yourself and others, remembering to always be yourself and stay true to what you believe in. Lots of bright yarn in this pair of mitts, and there are highlights of gold yarn for effect.

$65 USD shipped.

!Pretty in Purple!

This is a pretty much purple pair of mitts with a few little bits of pink thrown in for good measure. Sparkley yarn, too, because OF COURSE there is.

$65 USD shipped.

!Celtic Cables!

I had never done any extensive cable work prior to this project, so I came up with the design for these mitts as a personal challenge! They were certainly challenging, and I will probably not make a habit of cables this intricate, but it was an entertaining endeavor! These mitts feature the always delightful Hedgehog Fibres and Madeline Tosh yarns, making them a yarn connoisseur’s delight.

$70 USD shipped.

!Cabled Cuffs!

Speaking again of cables, I used a simple twisted cable to embellish this pair of mitts with extra long cuffs. These are mitts are knitted with my ALL TIME FAVORITE yarn, the Schoppel Zauberball. This variegated yarn makes the most wonderful crazy (hence the name) color gradations–especially when made in stripes.

$80 USD shipped.

And for one little silly thing…
