One of my Favourite Blogs / Blog buddies is having a 'Give Away'. I have been following Sarah at Knits and Crosses since she started her blog and started to weave. Her Blog never fails to put a smile on my face and I am quite literally in awe of Sarah's weaving and how quickly her skills have progresses. I wish I had half the talent. I can not believe how quickly Sarah creates beautiful scarves and fabrics. She adapts ideas and experiments with her own ideas and I really think she is the most inspirational 'weaver' that I have encountered. Somehow she places a funky, contemporary style into her weaving projects and her enthusiasm is infectious. It is a joy to follow her work. Sarah does not run workshops (yet) but it would be a dream to meet up and work with her imparting her knowledge and passion for weaving. I know she will probably be quite embarrassed by my compliments but seriously don't take my word for it, pop over and search some of her 'Woven Work', see for yourselves.
Well, I was overjoyed that Sarah is having a very generous Give Away and offering one of her own hand woven scarves up for grabs. This is not just any old woven scarf, it is a scarf quite literally with a fascinating little twist.
Take a look at Sarah's Etsy Shop too, The Ninth Weave the shop looks beautiful at the moment with a 'Rainbow' of hand woven treasures to inspire you. If you deserve a special treat for yourself or you are looking for a stunning 'One Off' handmade gift for someone, this could well be the shop for you. My favourite piece selling in the shop at the moment is 'Jaipur' the scarf in the photograph at the beginning to this post. It was hard to choose a favourite though.
I am a fan of her blog too, thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOK, you convinced me.. I will go to her blog and Etsy shop, too. You're a good friend!! I do love handwoven things. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

Well said, Lucy! Thanks for linking to her shop...I had not figured out how to get there yet. (: <3 Are you and Evan on the mend?
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness.....I have been sitting here speechless for about 5 minutes before I could think of anything to write.....Um, yeah, I am a bit embarrassed but very flattered that you have written such lovely things about me! I love weaving with a passion and I spent a long time yesterday thinking up new things to weave and ways to weave them...mainly because I am slightly obsessed. Hopefully you will also enjoy reading about the next phase of my weaving adventures!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliments and, well, everything really x x x
