My cousin's wedding is only a couple of months away and I can't help but think about the amazing handmade items I've seen for weddings.
One Interweave Crochet magazine from the summer of 2015 had so many great handmade wedding items, from flowers and bow ties to a full wedding dress. I love this issue of the magazine so much even beyond the wedding patters. It's a must see.
In another older magazine issue there were lovely pictures of a shawl designed for a designer getting married that took my breath away. There were amazing socks for the groomsmen and fun photos. If I find it, I'll share what issue it is.
I finally ordered my first skeins of Potion Yarns. I wanted to find something in teal to try to make a little something for my cousin. A scarf or a wrap...something nice for the coming winter months. I also found a lovely skein of yarn on Yarn Over New York, so there is a third contender for the teal yarn.
Here is some lovely eye candy of the teal yarns I found from the dyers:
Potion Yarn's Queen of the Nile
Potion Yarn's The Drones Club
Yarn Over New York's Fox Specs
Each yarn has such a unique beauty.
This post is pretty short this week. I've been making great progress on my the test for the Midnight Maths Shawl from Fiery Phoenix. Only 720 rows of the special cast off to go.
Happy crafting!!!
