Nicki-Skirt

This midi-skirt was designed for a homecoming dance, so it has an extra little flip at the hem for superior dancing :). --it's a clearly unstated fact that if your skirt has more twirl you're clearly a great dancer, right?
forgive my model, she didn't know I was requiring this pic, and she didn't have an underskirt prepared
see the spin?!
all skirts are made to order, styles and patterns vary depending on size and requests. It is made essentially as a tube, so the measurements are just hip circumference and length. the waist is open so you can thread a ribbon or elastic band through, and it's meant to be worn with a belt and an underskirt, I recommend finding something in thin stretchy cotton-knit because of the way the crocheted thread hangs.

all skirts are made to order, and take 6-8 weeks to complete. please email with requests. patterns and styles vary depending on size and preference.

Kami Skirt

I don't have any pictures of this one on a real person yet, but I hope to get some soon, I'll update the post if I get them :).

'braid' bracelets

these are available in red, dusty rose, royal blue, light slate, chocolate brown, linen, or white. all are cotton thread. the beading here is all wooden beads in random order, though they could be specified as well. i also have rock beads in grass green or black. others can be arranged on special request, but the cost may be a little more for new materials.
i recommend keeping the beading in the 'braid' (like the red and pink ones here) if you like to wear multiple bracelets at a time. the linen colored one is meant to be worn alone. the blue one in the picture is actually an anklet, though any pattern can be made to any length.
they all have lobster claw clasps.

flowers

 i've been making a lot of various little flowers for hair clips lately, all colors, sizes and i think a fun mix of textures and stitches.

balls

i love these cute little fun balls! they're about 3 inches across (though that varies somewhat by yarn and the texture of the ball). they're stuffed with soft fiberfill--like a pillow, so they're safe to play with in the house. these were a gift for a 1 yr old's birthday. the purple and yellow one is soft cotton, and the pink varigated one is baby-acrylic with just a hint of shine. the loops could be cut and the yarn wouldn't unravel at all. these loops are made small, though bigger would be possible. i'll post some more that i've done soon.

azalea bowl

this pretty little bowl is made from all natural unbleached cotton thread, it's about 5 1/4"x 2 1/2" at it's widest dimension, and is perfect for holding little pretties :) it's patterned after azaleas, though i did NOT come up with the pattern entirely on my own.
it's mimiced from a pattern for sale here, though i did not order the pattern. 
mine is slightly different (and certainly much smaller).
