SALE BELOVED ANGEL JERSEY SCARF, SMOKY LAVENDER

Wed, 09 Sep 2009 21:51:17 -0400

$13.00
NOW ON SALE!
Beloved angel was inspired by my favorite grave marker at my favorite cemetery in my home town. She has always looked peaceful to me but hiding something, possibly a deep secret that I desperately wish to hear her whisper to me but cannot hear with my human ears.
She has been hand painted onto a limited use silk screen and hand screen printed onto a chocolate brown jersey scarf just for you. Each and every one of these scarves are different and special in their own way. Each face of each angel is hand painted on by me so they all are unique and have their own personality. This one is also the only one I did a layered shadow effect on so it has some really nice dark gray shading. I also hand mixed the colors and have come up with some really different shades for this project I think I would call this one smoky lavender.
Scarf measures 64 inches long.
A totally unique and lovely decorative scarf for any season.

Royal Purple Star Crown

Fri, 28 Aug 2009 23:58:46 -0400

$12.00
Hand knit with dark royal purple merino wool that has been washed in hot water to make it a cozy felted texture. My crowns are "free hand knitted" so every one is different. Once they are felted I needle roved turquoise and white detailings to the points of the crown and a turquoise star upon the front.
This is a one size fits most children. Its knit so it stretches quite a bit. Fun for kids to wear and pretend in and virtually indestructible. I came upon this idea when my girls had broken one too many of those plastic crowns one accumulates when you have little girls and it has seemed to be a wonderful replacement.
Remember each crown is different so please look at photos carefully before you make your selection.

SALE BIG, LONG and CHUNKY handknit scarf

SALE! NOW $10 OFF!!
This is more then a scarf.
I'll tell you that now.
I made this exact scarf for myself and am so very in love with it that I decided to make one for this here shop. So this baby has been tested out in the world and I have to say, I get comments on how lovely it is all the time. I like to think of mine as a little friend wrapped around me to stave off those blustery days. It can be dressed up or down, and its choclolate brown color goes with vertually anything and everything.
Its hefty.
All said and done it weighs about 7.8oz.
I would say it is more like wearing a fur stole then a scarf but I haven't ever worn a fur stole....so I can't really say that but you get my meaning:)
This was knit with three balls of Bernat MAX yarn that has a thick and thin hand spun sort of texture. Its 75% Acrylic - 25% Wool so it holds up very well and its machine washable and dryable! I knit it "freehand" with size 20" needles in a sort of random pattern. It measures 8" wide in most places and 88" long. Thats 7.3 feet!! Plenty of length to wrap around and around. One end is larger and the other end comes to a point on the end.
This will without a doubt be the scarf you reach for more often then not.
You will adore it as much as I adore mine.
Really you will.
Its just fabulous!
