knitting away



so...
i have been knitting a bit lately
and here are the results.

i am quite happy with both,
although i wanted a yarn for the sweater that
was more organic looking,
more earth toned,
but this was the best i could do.

there is a little storefront
that has opened up in my area
that sells crafts and art
by commission
and i am considering approaching them
with some things.

however.
my nerves
are
not
so good.

i need to build up my confidence a bit first,
i think.

pictures can be clicked on to be seen bigger and better, i hope :)

Those are so beautiful! I love the very natural look to the yarn & color you chose, and the details on the cardi are perfect -- tassle hat & wood-looking buttons. I think anyone with wee ones would be charmed by them!

sweetie, you should totally approach them with some of your things ... i adore these, very beautiful and very organic and natural looking : )

there is an amazing wool store not even a block from my house, it has wonderful yarn and it is incredible, natural, beautiful colours and tons of earth toned skeins ... a hand spinner textile artist i know recommends it as one of the best places in edmonton ...

so, i'll make you a deal. send me your address and i'll send you a present from this store : ) but there is a catch ~ you have to promise that you will approach that storefront about your beautiful projects : ) whatcha think?

i think you are so talented ... truly ...

Oh these are fabulous! Yes, yes, yes, you should talk to the art space/commission your work - you're talented my dear and I know if I was looking for a baby gift and found this set, I'd be buying it.

You should definitely step out and approach this store; your work is beautiful. You will be blessed as you bless others, and you can't bless others without getting this stuff in their hands...

Go for it!
