Words are Colors


Do you ever hear a word and see colors? I do! This week's SockPixie collection is a play on words and colors. This was great fun to design and I hope you will enjoy the colors.
The Colorway above is called Intense...

We are off to Venice


Last week I took you on a voyage through literature. This week, SockPixie is taking you on a voyage to Venice. We will see so many beautiful places, the Ponte dei Pugni, Burano, the Rialto, and of course we will take a lovely ride in a Gondola... I hope you enjoy your visit!

New Colorways


This week's SockPixie new colorways were inspired by Hermes, Dior, and other creative designers. I had fun capturing their spirit, and giving my own interpretation of their work.
I really love their deep saturation, and I hope that you will enjoy them.

Hexagon Progress




Progress has been made on the Hexagon Scarf. I am finishing the picking up. I did find the perfect dark purple yarn. It is Debbie Bliss Donegal Tweed. I chose it for its natural handspun look. I thought this would go really well wit the look of Kureyon.I just love the new dimension that is added by the two-tone edging.
The next step will be blocking then piecing.



I purchased the velvet at Winmill Fabrics, the other day. I have to say that this project has made me really happy. There is nothing like combining great colors, and interesting construction.
