KnittenKaboodle - Handcrafted Fiber Art to Fit Your Lifestyle

Saturday, October 5, 2013

Back in the Groove!

I know it's been a while, but I have not been idle! Over the course of the past months, I've been working hard, and taking workshops to further my creativity. Also, I added quilting to the my growing list of creative endeavors.  And now, it is that time of year when I plant myself in the workshop and craft the holiday items for my local favorite shop (Tait's Harvest Shop) and for my website.

Additionally, this year I added some new items to the line up: fabric scarves, table runners, fleece scarves and neck warmers, and Christmas stockings.  


Chiffon Scarves






Fleece Scarves - perfect for transition temperatures

 Exciting things for the holidays are brewing.  Here are a few pictures.




A sampler of knitted scarves and neck warmers - great fibers!


New! Hand crafted 'made fabric' stockings


Some of the wonderful fabrics for aprons and spice trivets

In case you're interested in this summer's progress, here are a few things I've been working on:



"Improvisational" Pillow - pieced in 'wonky' blocks


Custom designed, special order for Tait's Harvest Shop to be used in the store


These fun slippers, featuring a clever knot design are a class I am teaching in October at Stitch Your Art Out, Pine Grove Mills, PA


A few of my friends (I love you guys!) and I knitted various versions of this shawl


Cynthia Spencer (pictured) will soon be publishing this pattern of mine in her Really Clear Patterns
This is also a class coming up in December.
