I’ve sewn sewn sewn away but haven’t given you all some pictures lately. Here are a few goodies:
A hoodie with secrets! The idea here is your iPod (or whatever) is snug in a secret inner pocket. It stays out of the elements and the cord snakes up through the neckline, where it is secured by little earbud holders! Observe:
This way the headphones won’t get caught or pull on anything. Also the little safety-pin deconstructed sleeves, which Phoenix loves – and a secret sleeve pocket. The entire garment is lined, no seams felt on the inside.
Not-So-Scary Red Monstre
Commissioned for an expectant couple down in L.A. Outer shell is wool, inner shell super super soft Michael Miller cotton knit. YES HORNS TOO. & mittens. Tiny, wonderful-to-knit, mittens.
Brown Bear
A relatively conservative design all my own. Reminiscent of a very early bunting I made Nels so long ago.
Wow! You’ve been busy. All very beautiful and amazing items! Nice work!!!
@Bex
Thank you! I’m kind of mitten-addicted. I’m already most the way done thru another pair out of some super-soft sock yarn I have. It’s too bad I have to obsessively count rows or they’d be even faster to whip up!
I’ve always loved the garments you make. But gadget pockets and secret pockets? Now you’re just teasing me.
@Kidsync
Thank you for the compliments. But you know for every gadget/money pocket there is more of a chance you’ll ACCIDENTALLY WASH THAT FUCKER. I predict it’s only a matter of time for we space-cadet Hogabooms.
Ahh, the bunting(s) and mittens you’ve been dropping hints about! I was on tenterhooks, and these do not disappoint. The hoodie is so perfect with all its neat little features — great design.
