Two parts Fashion this Friday

Today's fashion Friday is a two part plug.  I have been continuing to learn how to use my ribber and have had a couple of pieces come off the machine.  This short top for yoga wear is one of those pieces. It was created in one long strip and then hand sewn into the top seen here.  The wool is very thin and breathable.

The knit has a fun zig zag that runs throughout which adds some texture and hopefully a little umph for your practice.

Find it on ETSY

The other good news is that this piece made it into the show in St. Louis.  The felted collar shown below will be in an exhibition opening June 27 from 5-8pm.  For those of you in the St. Louis area, please check out the exhibition titled, "Emerging Artists: Works from the Studio" which runs through August 10.

And now, I have to get back to assisting on the upstairs remodel!

                                         

Fashion Friday

I was once told that I dressed with "wit" and "wisdom."  I still strive to style myself accordingly.  In the grand scheme of things, I appreciate lots of types of fashion, but if it is knit and vintage... well I am in. So when I found this sweet item at a local thrift store, I stalked it even though I am pretty well too short to make it a full time ensemble.

As I am also scouting out ideas for knitwear, this one is surely inspirational for pattern.  Add my red patent leather shoes and voila!
