The Coffee House Cowl (New!)

Introducing:

The Coffee House Cowl!

I'm thrilled to be designing again! And I'm smitten with this cowl- I LoVe that it's not bulky and hugs in snug to my neck. It keeps out of the way and stays stylishly put. And, hello, did you notice those buttons!! :) I've been hoarding them for nearly a year now. Pretty yellow sunshiney buttons!! And the brown ones (made from coconut, so they say) with the medallion etching? Oh, yes, I love buttons. But I digress....

What was I talking about again?

Oh yes,

The Cowl!!

Love.

Manly Stuff (Fantastic Finds)

I grew up with two older brothers and there was always a lot of talk about being Manly, and doing the Manly thing.

I began wondering: can crochet be Manly? Or, okay, more accurately, masculine? Of course- it's not all rainbow yarn and pumpkin hats!

Today I've compiled some Fantastic Finds for all the menfolk out there.

I love the simplicity in each of the pieces. Women's clothing and accessories tends to get very elaborate,  while menswear is unpretentious and functional. A truly Fantastic Find.
