Sea Foam Knitted Necklace

Wednesday, October 29th, 2008

After browsing the net last night for knitted jewellery patterns, I got inspired. I had an idea of my own, and so, I created my own knitted necklace.

Silver Knitted Bracelet

Wednesday, October 29th, 2008

Thanks to the helpful crafters at Crafteroo.co.uk, I found a fantastic little tutorial about knitting with wire last night.

It gave me a few tips, and an hour or two later, I had the result – a lovely knitted silver bracelet. This was great fun to knit, and once I added the extension chain and clasp, it turned into quite a stylish piece. I plan to make many more…

Chunky Yarn – I love it!!

Tuesday, October 28th, 2008

Okay, I’ve fallen in love….

This yarn is gorgeous – it’s called Rustica. I bought two skeins of it yesterday, and I’ve already made a NeckWarmer. I’m currently in the process of making a scarf out of it, too! I added three wooden toggles, which can slip through the yarn to secure it.

It has created a thirst for more chunky yarn… I’ve been trawling Etsy for suppliers, and I’m off to check out an awesome yarn shop on Friday. Oh, and those are my earrings, too! I am considering putting this NeckWarmer up for sale on Etsy… but I love it too much! I may have to make another to sell…
