A young woman is standing with her back to the camera. Her head is turned towards the camera. She is standing with her arms extended holding the ends of a semi circular shawl, holding it wide enough to show the pattern. The wings of the shawl are garter st. They frame a center panel in stockinette and lace. The bottom is finished with an extra wide lace panel and pointed lace edging, in my favourite shade of pink. 🩷

The Celebration Shawl, designed 5 years ago to celebrate my 20 years of working at Mad About Ewe Fine Yarns in Nanaimo.

The yarn is a beautiful non- Superwash Merino, hand-dyed by me with Wilton Cake Dyes, both colours.

A jaunty cozy on a white teapot. The vibrant pink petals of the mum help to keep the tea warm and the table cheerful. The petals are supported by a crown of leaves. The leaves branch down the sides of the cozy, adding depth to the green and grey cozy body.

"Mums" the Word! Knit with Cascade Superwash Wool.

Tea cozy knitting is my playtime. I let my imagination go wild and embellish to my heart is satisfied!

The image is divided. The upper portion is a merino sock blank (a long scarf fabric designed to be dyed and then unraveled) painted with dyes. The background is vivid green and blue with pink, yellow and purple flower shapes. Below is a woman with her back to the camera and her head in silhouette. She is holding both ends of a small shawl and stretching it across her back. The shawl had been knitted from the sock blank above.

I had a merino sock blank I first painted and then designed a little shawl with it - called Shoulder Blade.

I was needing a little Spring 🌱 in my life so I created my own flower garden.
