Candy Floss

New set complete and ready for my birthday update on Friday. I'll be putting details of prices etc on here in the next couple of days and finishing off a few more things.
Stanley update...he's doing well, sleeping A LOT and getting lots of LOVE! Vet appointment tomorrow to check he is still OK and stitches out later in the week. He just needs time now I think. He is one hell of a lucky cat!

Poor Stanley

Deja vous for stan the bionic cat who decided to play with cars again and smash the same leg he smashed in 2 years ago! Reconstructed hip and ankle later, he is back hom for some tlc :) here you see one VERY lucky cat!

One of his wounds

Stan the bionic cat

Poor Stanley

My kitty has been hit by a car AGAIN! Poor Stanley just won't learn how dangerous the road is :(
Waiting for the vet to sort out surgery for him and hoping he will be OK. Spent all day waiting for phone and knitting. I seem to knit faster when I am stressed!
He already has pins in this leg and now he has broken the ankle and maybe his pelvis again. Poor poor Stanley.
*sigh*

More yarn and another hat!

More yarn finished and another hat for the birthday update (Feb 5th) This time the hat has tiny flowers and beads stitched on it.
No more time to type...must spin and stitch!
Just going to list a couple of eeko cardigans too.

Rainbow Handspun

Here is my finished skein of rainbow handspun. I am so pleased with how it came out! Now I can't wait to have a knit with it :D
I need more roving....I think I may be addicted!

Spinning Around!

Oh I'm loving the spinning wheel now! Last night I spun another skein of single ply merino in a beautiful blend of black. pale blue and white from www.needleworks-pleasure.com
I also did a 2 ply thick and thin yarn from the most gorgeous silk and merino blend in spearmint colours. I bought this from a lovely etsy seller www.yarnahoy.etsy.com
Another Helter Skelter Handspun hat is also complete. This one has little felted and beads balls stitched on it!
I'll take some pics later :)

I added a few more 'make a wish cardigans' to the shop and am still working on commissions too. My hands have never been so busy and so HAPPY!!

Where I work

Today while sitting knitting in my little studio I thought it might be nice to take pics of all four corners of it. Here you can see my huge stash of yarn, buttons, beads etc etc etc. I LOVE my space :D
Today is very grey and dull outside but inside my space its bright and warm and full of life!

What I'm up to

Trying to keep warm, busy finishing orders, spinning, making fires, making ideas in my head real, cooking soups, doing yoga, NOT drinking wine :(
Aren't I a good girl!
Here's a preview of my newest creation. The Spiral Spun Hat. All yarn handspun by my fair hands and lovingly knit into a funky spiral design. With tiny glass beads sewn along the spiral. These will be OOAK as I only spin small quantities of yarn and there won't be many at a time. They take a long time to make obviously and have so much love spun and knit into them that I'm sure you can see and feel it :D
They will be available maybe near my birthday (February 5th) in celebration of me reaching 44!!
Hope you like :)

Cake daydreaming dress sets and bobble hats

I have just finished the pics and will list the new cake sets shortly. Just need to tidy the house, make some soup and clean out the fireplace...Oh, and wash my hair :)
Hope you like!

New Collection

Happy New Year!
I have been busy taking photos today of the new collections pieces. I will preview them on flickr and then list them in the shop randomly next week. I do have quite a lot of items so the shop should be well stocked for once! If you want any more details please email me : janepierrepont@aol.com

Cuddle up cozy and dream of lovely things in these pretty designs for your dollies. Scattered with tiny beads and made with love and special wishes!

The eeko bobble hats will be up first at $15 each, then my Daydreaming dress and headband sets at $22 or $24 depending on the yarn I have used (I have a angora type man made yarn, a angora/wool blend, a mohair and a 100% pure wool in rainbow shades) Then the Make a wish cardigan at $15 in the pure wool yarn and $20 in the silk/wool blend yarn. Also maybe later in the week I will have finished mini versions of the daydreaming dress and headband sets for Strawberry Shortcake and a felted mini bobble hat for them as well.
