Nana’s Cottage
This shawl is inspired by vintage afghan throws that all our mothers and grandmothers seemed to have during those far off golden tinged days.
Autumn Spice
Autumn Spice is a unisex slouchy hat, with a vintage inspired chevron panel. Reminiscent of those magical fall trips to Grandma’s house. Apple sauce bubbling on the stove, butter tarts oozing in the oven, and pumpkin pies cooling on the counter. A nearby fire crackles cozily, offering promises of treats, knitting, cuddles and stories.
I Believe
I believe in, advocate for, support and love, someone with Autism
No Place Like Home
Once upon a lifetime ago, both my Grandmother and Mother would often tell me how every girl, no matter her age, always needed her own pair of ruby slippers.
Silent Soft Slow
Silent, Soft, Slow is unbelievably light and warm shawl, worked from the bottom edge up in easy lace and stockinette sections alternating in big short row wedges.
The Ghost Hunter’s Cloche
Extremely warm and dense with textured stitches, this cloche style will keep those ghostly fingers… of wind… at bay.
Milkweed Cowl
Reminiscent the fluffy tufts of milkweed pods, one of the last signs of the fading fall. Big and beautiful this generously cozy cowl works up super quick.
Gramma’s Hug
This shawl was born out of grief. Conceived and knit within 48 hours, it truly opened my eyes to knitting as therapy.
Collingwood
With plenty of charm and style, the Collingwood Toque or Slouch is perfect for guys and gals thinking of hitting the beach or mountain trails.
Portage
Hiking, camping, heading north or out at market, these socks are thick and cozy. Singing with nostalgia, they beg to be worn curled up on drizzly days by a crackling fire.
Golden
There’s a special time of day, with a special kind of light. Many photographers call it “The Golden Hour”. The hour after sunrise, the hour before sunset. Things seem to slow down, become still – people and things around us just seem to glow and radiate warmth.
GG
A pinch of fun. A smidgen of whimsy. A dash or two of colour. Finally? A whack ton of sass! What more do you need for a playful day out or in.
Campside
A little luxury for cool starry nights and early morning chills by the lake. This playful beanie is just enough to ward off any cool draughts while keeping dreaded “camp head” hair out of your way.
Heron
Amongst the shales and shores of Georgian Bay, in quiet times around dusk, you just may spot a Great Blue or Grey Heron, fishing for it’s dinner in the shallow waters. They are peaceful birds, on long, graceful legs good for wading.
My Watch – Cap
A classic watch cap with a twist.
Jonquil Hat
Fun and frills bloom to life in this sassy hat.
Stirring Currents – Poncho
A classic poncho with elegantly simple lace and twisted ribbing evoking the waking up of spring.
Weather the Storm Cowl
A cowl shaped hug inspired by all the storms of summer, weathered by so many people
Early Harvest Mitts
A comfy pair of fingerless mitts. They are petite, just enough to keep the new chill from the backs of your hands.
