the beauty of making


braids, of course.

top: natalie of owls-go-hoot
middle: anna of gracefullady
bottom: elena of elenagold (side note - i've seen this sweater she designed in person! it's incredible!)

these three blogs are my resource for finding inspiration in the winter. not the "blogged and reblogged" fashion inspiration, but the real, "ooo, i want to make that!" kind of inspiration. and motivation in the winter is always something i seem to lack.

all three lovely ladies design, knit, and sew. and do it well. what more could you want?

  1. Oh WOW. I *must* have those shoes in the top shot. Gooorgeous!

    And you're right - so hard to get inspired this time of year but they make winter look so comforting and inviting.

  3. Thanks Elly!
    I'm starting to look past just the "pretty" at the "doable" with blogs, and it's hard to figure out where to start.
