Paddywacks: New Rings - Custom Stamping
Hello everyone!
It's been a busy week around here. I've been all over the place try to round up various items for displays and new crafts. In all the chaos I decided to try out a new type of jewelry on a whim and I'm pretty happy with the results! My new hand stamped, customizable rings, bracelets, and pendants will be going up in the shop this week as quickly as I can get them up. Right now, here are pictures of the ones I have made already.
If you have a phrase that you would like stamped onto a ring let me know and I will be more than happy to work something out with you!

Paddywacks: New Shawls and Hats
Hello everyone,
so sorry about the long wait. I'm not sure what has happened to my motivation level lately aside from it being basically non-existent. Anyways, after many tries I finally got some pictures that I really liked of my newest shawl and the hats I've been making.
What do you think?
This shawl is made with cotton yarn that is oh-so-soft. I picked it up for the colors and couldn't put it down because it felt so wonderful. I have the same yarn in blues and oranges that I'll be making in the next couple of months.
In the meantime, a new design has kind of taken over my needles. I've been told I should make these for about a year now and I finally got around to it. They are mostly made from a wonderful yarn that is a blend of wool and silk, although some are just cotton. I don't know what Meadow is made from because I've had that yarn for so long that I lost the tag and Berry Picking is made from an acrylic/wool blend. Anyway, check out these boho hats!
The Key Lime hat and shawl match, they're both made from the same awesome cotton yarn and they look great together:
Have a great day!
Kate
P.S. What do you think of my new hair?

A Quick Summary of My Day
Got up at 9.
Worked on making spreadsheets and doing calculations for Paddywacks.
Survived an accidental ten-mile bike ride* -- o.O
Hopped in the pool for a bit to cool off.
Played Minecraft with the boys for entirely too long.
Knitted.
Danced for two hours.
Felt very exhausted and quite satisfied with the day for the rest of the evening.

*I was originally only going to be gone for thirty minutes or so...I ended up enjoying myself too much to turn around.

Paddywacks: New Shawls - Shuffle and Summer Sunset
Hello everyone!
Here are the two shawls I've finished in the last couple weeks. They'll be showing up in the shop in the next couple of days.
Shuffle is a mixed up rainbow of colors. It's four feet long and knitted from mostly worsted weight yarn.
Summer Sunset is a lovely combinations of pinks, blue, and yellow. It's knit from a lace weight yarn and mimics mohair, though it's actually acrylic.
Since these two are shorter than my previous shawls so they will be a bit cheaper. If you'd like to reserve one let me know.
