Knitful Dezigns - a BESTeam Etsy Shop Review

The first thing that caught my eye when I went to Knitful Dezigns was their logo. Seriously, does this gifted gal just knit? She should be doing photography as well!

Well, it turns out it's a beautiful photo for a beautiful item with an adorable name - "Boogie Woogie bugle bow". How cute is that? Now, I wasn't born in the 50's and most kids today hardly know it from the other decades of nostalgia Americana history is steeped in, but even if you don't know it from the polyester fashion disasters of the 70's, one has to love this cutest of knitted treasures and how much fun it looks to wear. You have to love the color - it reminds me of the inside of a watermelon (such a fun and happy food!) and the beautiful shades of variation the yarn runs through make me remember why I had a brief fling with crocheting. Love it, don't do it anymore for lack of time, but I have a great respect for anyone who can knit and do it with fun and flair like Knitful.



And what could be cuter than a knitted Robin's Nest???

It turns out that Veronica was one of us from childhood...always creative, always will be. It is these types of people that add color to the world with their work. Their creative brains are always looking for new ways to express themselves through their art - no matter what medium it comes through. One can't help but favorite their Etsy shops just to see what they will come up with next.



So get on over there and favorite her shop already before you miss something fun and creative. She does do custom orders...wonder if she could make me a bowtie like the 11th Doctor wears on Doctor Who...

Work in Progress - "Dragonfly's Flight"

It'll be hard to sell this one. It's turning out really pretty. The yarn is French Muench and matched the beadwork I did down the sides perfectly even though the beadwork was done two years ago and I bought the yarn last year and from a completely different place. Next I'm doing an inner lining, then weaving the strap.

Preview new parasol - black and white

Preview of tonight's newest Etsy store item. I can only post a few images of this beautiful new parasol on the Etsy store, so the rest are going here, along with the shots there as well. Coming soon: a lesser priced version without all but two of the ribbons.
