With the new year settling in, I’ve been thinking about re-vamping my wardrobe a little. Wanting to keep my purse strings tightly drawn, accessories are the way to go! So I made some knitted collars to spruce things up a bit

They are a double bed knit, knitted in merino wool. I plated two different coloured yarns to create a worn/marled look. I found the aztec style ribbon on sale at the amazing Abakan haberdashery we have here in Liverpool, I especially like the mustard coloured one! Think I’m going to put these two on my etsy shop before I make more for myself

Bring back the muff?

Ear muffs have worked their way back into our winter wardrobes this season, but what about the hand muff?? I’ve been seeing them around a fair bit lately, but not so much in the shops. Are they practical? I love the look of them, so thought I’d have a go!

Ok, I lied! I met a wonderful lady called Barbara this week who is an amazing talent. She owns a family boutique and alterations business on Leather Lane, and she can sew like the wind! She helped me put this together, and showed me all the stages so I can hopefully put one together myself. The knit is an old swatch and Barbara let me use some of her fur and fabric so i’ll have to get round to getting my own. I love the look of it though, so I’m going to knit some of my own pieces to put on the Etsy shop.
