Swedish Cuff Pattern

Fingerless gloves are very popular right now! They are very convenient to wear while blogging too! It's great to be able to wear gloves and type!



The cuff pattern is a warm olive green yarn knit with taupe and mocha brown yarn. The stripe design is from a Swedish mitten book from the 1850s!



Fingerless gloves are quicker to knit than regular mittens. They are perfect to make when you want to use up your stash of yarns too!



Here are some freshly made earrings, with peach color faceted briolettes and copper findings.


The background in the photos match the earrings. It is from a greeting card my sister (Karen Harvey Cox) made. The colors of the papers and the earrings match perfectly!

When you think you can't create, keep creating!

I Love Turquoise!

Turquoise is everywhere in the Western U.S. It's so organic and feels good to the touch.




I made some earrings for my Etsy jewelry shop - Boutique de Bijou.

Here are some closeup photos. These are hand made with copper rings and ear wires.

Thank you for looking!
