Cozy me up!

Published by Christine on October 6, 2009

Joules has been crazy busy lately, so to help her out,  I took photo’s of some of her beautiful creations and posted them up on our Etsy this morning!

Hopefully this will inspire Joules to get the rest of her amazing creations up! She has a few hats, neck cozies, and another pair of arm warmers she needs to post as well!  It’s hard to believe that a year ago, she had no clue how to crochet, and now she’s better that I am!  I had tried many times before to teach her and convince her how awesome the art of crochet is, but when you’re not feeling it,  you’re not feeling it.  Well, what ever the reasons on how i finally convinced her to learn, I’m so excited that we get to share this hobby! <3

Ps. I updated the Galleries and the rest of the new arm warmers I just put up can be seen here in our gallery, or up on our Etsy!

Wandering through dreams at Night

Published by Joules on October 5, 2009

My latest adventure into the world of crochet has been an interesting one.   When I first learned to crochet, I didn’t know how to read patterns, so almost everything I made was made up out of my head.  But once I actually figured out how to read and follow a pattern, I became addicted to patterns and the way they always (almost!) turn out right!  So this time,  I wanted to try and let my creative urges take over and be a bit more artistic than what I usually make.

Those endeavors resulted in this.

It reminds me a bit of a the plant Tradescantia pallida, or more commonly known as a Wandering Jew,  (although that name isn’t very politically correct these days ), which is one of my favorite kind of plants.

I was inspired by this amazing Alpaca wool blend I got at Michaels the other day, and the rest just kinda fell into place.  I think what excites me the most about this piece,  is the fact that all the leaves are removable and can be placed on any flower.  I’m a little in love with it. ~_~

PS. This post was brought to you by Christine! However, i was logged in as Joules and didn’t notice and now I can’t figure out how to change it ><
