Creative Spurts


Wonder why I haven't been posting? For one thing, I have been creating for the newest family members - my twin granddaughters. Here is sweater no 1. No 2 is still being knitted!

I bought two books of French baby knitted designs from a lovely shop on Madison Ave last October. Everything in those books is terrific but there isn't enough time. Unfortunately, this photo could have better colors as the orange is nice soft peach which accents the sweater.

I will see these babies for the first time on April 8 so I need to finish the second sweater this week. Bye bye for now!

Brag night at Not Just Yarn







Here is a glimpse of my Wednesday night knitting social at Not Just Yarn in Brattleboro. This was brag night as several of my friends are making baby gifts for my granddaughters!

Art cloth round robin T Shirt


I joined an online group named complexcloth. It is artists who create art cloth using complex cloth techniques. Jane Dunnewold is the leader in this field. Her work is fabulous. Check her out at http://www.artclothstudios.com/.




Here is a photo of the t shirt in its 1st phase- died in MX Procion Lapis blue shibori style. 6 more people get to do their thing so wait and see - oh la la la!
