Coming “home”.
A lot of you don’t know me, personally; or how much of my life was spent studying fiber arts, the industry, and how that had a phenomenal impact on my business; how I make my products, and (in certain ways) how having an education in the Fiber Arts distinctly makes my products unique and different to those that are similar on the market, so I want to start an open Q&A dialogue on this post, where you can ask anything about my life in the arts, my time in Philadelphia, my work load, my focused study at Tyler….Ask me anything. My husband and I are planning a road trip (April 9-10) , where I can properly introduce him to the city that started it all for me. I’m proud of the city that provided me with my education. I’m proud of my school for creating an atmosphere where we were challenged to think outside the many artistic boxes we encountered. And I’m proud to be a Tyler School of Art, Temple University 2012 alumni. I ❤️ Philly, and what it has enabled me to give back to you, my customers and fellow artists.
So Instagram… Ask me anything

One of my most recent favorite cast-on’s is #plusshawl by the very talented @olgajazzyknits! It has been quite a while since a shawl found it’s way on to my needles, but I am finding this knit quite difficult to put down. After the completion of each row, I just find myself saying, “one more….ok, maybe two more”, until I find myself completing another repeat! We love this knit so much, that we have added kits to the shop, half features our 100% American Superwash Merino Rose Sport and the other, our brand new ROAN Sport, as the contrasting color. ✨You can find them on the home page of our website✨

I made a super quick and easy Christmas wreath. A $5 bag of loose leaves from a fake flower shop and cheap fake hibiscus pressed into a foam base with florist wire and pins

Making this bag I couldn’t help thinking of clowns and the circus- not my favourite things. Now that it’s finished though I quite like it

Back away from the eggs. Harvey and I vainly attempt to stop everyone eating Easter eggs before Easter Sunday. Does anyone else still stick to this tradition?

Talk about feeling inadequate! My crochet pineapple crown definitely needs work and I wonder if pipe cleaners might be part of the answer?

Taking advantage of the last rays of Sun. Out in the country, with a light breeze, golden light, and the sound of birds flying to their nests. Bliss!
