Autumn Update


Autumn is in full splendor here in Central Pennsylvania, and KnittenKaboodle is as well.  Many new items are added to the website, and more coming through the next few weeks.

Additionally, we have a new retail customer in Hanover, Pennsylvania: Furs by Susan, which is owned and operated by the creative and interesting Debra Markle.  Her boutique focuses on a wonderful selection of luxury outer ware and accessories in many different fabrics and fibers.  If you are in the area, please stop in and visit her at 1 Frederick Street, Hanover, PA 17331 web address . Two of the items she selected: Alpaca and kid-silk mohair caplet with removable pin closure and silk-mohair triangle scarf with fancy border.



It's time for harvest and fall vegetables and plantings at Tait's Harvest Shop and I've added a few new aprons and spiced trivets there:

Spiced trivets that waft lovely spices when meeting a warm cup, dish or kettle


Very clever owls with a gentle bottom ruffle, and appliqued owls

Low volume is very big this year; halter neck styling and deep pockets with accent trim

Dreaming of the tropics, even as summer passes; extra long ties in belt carriers and pockets


On the knitting front, I've been busy working on new items for the holiday season, for the website and for the shops.  I continue to focus on the lovely and popular silk-mohair creations, and am also working on a few cowls inspired by the highly popular Outlander series.  More on that later ....
I did a few new things for friends and family:  A pretty scarf in technique that looks woven and a yummy bulky neck warmer (matching hat yet to come).  



 On the quilting front, I completed the table runner I discussed in earlier postings, which was waiting of the quilting and binding steps.  This was a birthday gift for my Mother.



Thanks for checking in!  More to come in the days to follow.  Enjoy Autumn.
