Well I am back. I have done a lot of knitting since my last post. I made a beautiful turquoise shawl that I finished in Roanoke, Va while I was at a conference. I also just finished a shrug which I am very proud of. I must admit it may be one of my masterpieces. In addition, I created a pattern for a new purse that I made for spring that has a flap.
Here we go. This is the shawl that I finished in Roanoke. I call it the Roanoke Rumba.
The next piece that I made was a brown felted purse. I have it in a boutique here in Petersburg, Virginia in Old Towne Petersburg called The Pink Scottie. The shop carries my designs.
The purse is made of brown wool with fun fur. It features dark brown bambo handles. It is fully lined.
This picture shows the lining in the bag.
This next purse is another one of my designs. The owner of The Pink Scottie wanted a purse that had more spring and summer colors. This felted purse is made with white wool, pink green and light beige Soya Yarn. It also includes pink, green and blue fun fur. It has a flap made with fun fur and Soya yarn.
This is the inside of the purse which is fully lined.
This is the back of the purse.
Finally, here is my shrug. It is made with the Lions Brand black Homespun yarn. The fringe is made of fushia, multi color beige and black Homespun yarn. This shrug can be warn a number of different ways, however I like wearing it criss-crossed in the back and creating a cowl neck in the front. I am still trying to think of a wonderful name for this piece. Do you have a suggestion? Feel free to email me.
I am now working on a purple shrug with beige purple and fushia fringe. As soon as I finish it I will post it as well.
If you are interested in purchasing any of these pieces or if you want a custom piece please feel free to email me.
