A sunny day in June and the INNER WILD Elven Strappy Top makes summer frolics brighter.
A little elven top for all kinds of adventures in secret places with thin i-cord straps, hand knitted in Noro’s pretty jewel, rainbow effect yarn.
Hand knitted in beautiful Noro Silk Garden yarn that’s 45% silk, 45% kid mohair and 10% lambs wool; soft and luxurious and with a wild feeling to it.
The colours are different on the front and back and blend in a muted haze of in-between hues from gold to sage and navy, emerald to hazel and goldenrod, so beautiful.
I wanted to let the yarn and all its colors sing and so I made a simple crop bodice design with spaghetti hand knitted straps so it sits lightly against the body like a leaf.
There’s been some self-seeding of Strappy Tops over the past few months including one in Noro Shiro cashmere and silk yarn in pink and green, part of the Zenko Set above.
And two commissions in fairy sparkly sequin yarn. First the INNER WILD Celestial Catkin Strappy Top and Sleeves Set below.
And Celestial Capri Strappy Top and Sleeves below.
This design is so pretty on its own against the skin and wonderful as a top layer in winter, even over a favourite sweater.
Rejoicing in the colours of Spring, brown grasses turning golden and lining the corncrake’s new nest. Rudely fresh green grass takes over slopes and flat meadows. Robust leaves of Angelica poke from bare earth and make olive feather shapes. Bright pink buds of crab apple trees burst open with pale pink white flowers. Homemade Harris …
A hydrangea cutting from last year decided to make Spring even more exciting by creating its first ever flower when nothing else bloomed in the garden. Brought indoors its single blossom came to be appreciated and admired all day long for weeks and weeks. Thanks to its beautiful influence this Spring I was drawn to …
It is almost always windy here in the Outer Hebrides and we have few trees for protection. And now in the coolness of Autumn the wind is blowing harder so that everything is refreshed and made to tingle like our skin and glow brighter released from under the weight of things no longer needed. We …
