New Online Store Open Soon
My new online store www.dreamsbydebi.com will be up and running soon. I can not thank Sabaina and Zee the couple who did the store enough. They have been wonderful incorporating all that I have asked for, and answering all of my questions.
This has been a work of love for me. I started crocheting when I was a child. I do not remember who taught me, but I have done it on and off for over 40 years. I taught myself how to knit 4 years ago after my grandfather passed away, and really enjoy it. I think it is the creative process that is so wonderful. I am one of those people that has to touch all of the yarns in a store. I am also one of those people that pulls my had away quickly if I touch a yarn of fabric, that feels yucky (for want of a better word). It is like touching a piece of chalk.
Right now I am working on a lace mohair scarf with a ruffle at the ends. I found the pattern in Knitting Magazine. It is so pretty. I made one in a pale pink, and now I am working on one in mustard yellow. The picture above is the pink scarf in progress. This is not a color that I usually pick, but I saw the ball of yarn at my local yarn shop Knitty Cat. Ann always has such great things in her store. I love walking in there. There are so many colors and textures, it is kind of like walking into a pastry shop. I always end up spending to much. Anne’s website is www.knittycat.com visit it if you get a chance.
I am signing off for now, but I’ll be back soon.
