More Knitted Bracelet!


I'm not doing much today because it's New Year's eve, but I did work on some photos. Here's a look at another of my bead knitted bracelets:
Above is a detail shot of the middle. This bracelet is made of black cotton thread with yellow striped seed beads. At left, you can see my wrist! The smaller bracelet is the one I wear all the time. This style of bracelet ties at the wrist, and does not have a clasp. The ties are long, so it's very adjustable.
I'm done for the day. Happy New Year!

New Knitted Bracelets!


For the past couple weeks, I have been working on my new line of knitted bracelets. Unfortunately, I managed to break my digital camera during that time, so it has taken me a little while to get pictures. I have listed the first one on Etsy today! I am considering opening up a new shop for just the bracelets. I am starting to think that my Etsy shop is looking a little bit jumbled together.

Please bear with me while I get used to my new camera. I love my new camera, but I've got a few things to learn about using it.

So far, all the bracelets I've knitted have been one of a kind items, but I am considering writing down some patterns so that others can try it. These are tiny needle knits, so it's not a project for everyone, but I find knitting jewelry quite fulfilling. It's much more interesting than all those scarves I used to knit and sell!

In other news, I have ordered myself a foam head from an Ebay seller. Yes, I know that strickly speaking "Etsians" are supposed to be all anti-Ebay. I don't really care. I just want to take some pictures of my hats, and I am so excited that it will be happening soon!
