Here is fun visual treat for you surface pattern designers. There is a blog hop going on that features patterns created by several artists. It feature their patterns AND what inspired them….don’t you just love the inspiration part? I know I do. This set above and the first stop on the hop is by Gill Eggleston of Pattern Addict. So I guess the color of last week was pink and this week it is emerald green (with some peacock thrown in!)
Also this week, I went hunting around on Kollabora-I got a neat gift certificate from them (somewhere on my desk…oops! I may have over cleaned!) They are Alt Summit sponsors this year. I found these cool projects to knit! Have you heard of Kollabora? It is a community for makers. Maker, I love that word. It has projects, ideas AND supplies on the site. It is really fun!
I found this dress! The dress may be a bit beyond my skill level and I may want her figure more than the knit dress.
This pencil case (or little clutch) may be more my speed.
I am in the middle of knitting this mess lovely wrap and need to get it done before I travel to Salt Lake for ALT. I am conjuring up plans on how I can bring a little taste of fun back for you! Stay tuned!
