Winter Knits in the Summer...


Well I finished up the bi color scarf I was working on using the long loom that Amber gave me and the English streetwise chunky I'd been wanting to use. It turned out nicely, and really thick too!. It is definitely one for the winter though. I've got enough left over to maybe make the brim of a matching hat. I showed it to Savanna while it was still in progress and told her that it might make a nice little scarf for her or Leroy when it got cold again. She informed me that "it would make a nice little scarf for me" Ah to be young and greedy again.... nah, seriously she's very sweet, and in any case you know she likes the stuff I make for her which is also very cool.

Lady Godiva Strolls by....

Introducing Kristi's Lady Godiva Gauntlets... because when you're wearing silk and Qiviut who cares what else you're wearing. These are just gorgeous! I'm currently going through the pattern now so as to test it out for her before she markets it, it's been fun so far...









And this is Amber's latest in fun fur adventures... I sound like the Price is Right announcer talking about the vacation packages at the end of the show...
















It's a wonderful new slipper sock with two contrasting (yet complementary) colors, and a fun fur cuff, yummy!











And here we have one of those lightning fast shawls that Kristi is making for the cabin... she's got several of these now and every one of them has turned out just lovely.
