Amelie Sweater in Cashmere and Felted Merino, Size M, Blue Kimono Studio
Is it warm yet?
Two hours after taking the dogs for a morning walk, my legs are still thawing out. There’s a blanket of ice in my yard, and the doors on my Subaru are frozen shut.
The stores are stocking bathing suits, but I still need sweaters—wool sweaters!
And I’m still making sweaters for my recycled clothing shop, Blue Kimono Studio.
Here are a few of my favorites sweaters. Some are my own, and some are from other Etsy sellers.
I’m proud of the one at the top of my post. It was featured on Etsy’s Front Page on December 28.
Burgundy Heather Pullover, Size M-L, $75 USD, RagaissanceWear.
Ella Pullover Sweater with Recycled Cashmere, Size L, $168, Foundry Designs
Sara Sweater in Felted Wool and Stripes, Size M, $118 USD, Blue Kimono Studio
Orange Merino Felted Pullover, Size S-M, $90 USD, RagaissanceWear.
Ella Pullover in Felted Cream, Taupe and Cocoa Wool, Size S, $168, Foundry Designs.
Amory Sweater in Wool and Felted Merino, $118, Size L, Blue Kimono Studio.
How about you? Are you ready for spring yet, or are you still pulling out your woolens?
Have a warm and colorful weekend…love,

You've got a really unique talent, Sallymandy, all while saving the planet from tossed-out but perfectly good clothing. It's amazing how people find their niche, and you certainly seem to have yours.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about frozen legs. I took my son's Malamute puppy for a walk a few weeks ago in Calgary's -20F - he was in his element but my thighs had no feeling left in them after 15 minutes! Here in France it's a winter like they haven't seen for decades - almost the whole country is under snow and a loooooong way from thinking about bathing suits.
These are stunningly beautiful. If I needed more sweaters/dresses, these would fill the bill. I shall keep the link.
ReplyDeletethese are really fab.....thanks for coming over....i wrote a lonely post on 28/12...we are in the same mould
ReplyDeleteThanks, dear friends!
ReplyDeleteWow, how wonderful that you made it onto Etsy's front page. Well done and congratulations. It will be a long time before I can even begin to think about spring. I find January and February very bleak months in Canada!
ReplyDeleteThey are all nice, sallymandy, but I have to say I like yours the best! Congratulations on being featured.
ReplyDeleteThe top one is so ME!
Wonderful! Front page of etsy!!!!!
ReplyDeleteNow that's a big deal!

So inspiring--aesthetically and ecologically!
ReplyDeleteFeatured on Etsy! I'd be really proud too. I do love those necklines ... what are they called? The rounded ones -- very flattering, I think.
ReplyDeletecongratulations! your sweaters are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI can tell your style right away and *knew* which sweaters were your's as I scrolled down to view each one. And, what a thrill for you, having your design featured on the front page of etsy!
ReplyDeleteI am actually low in the cozy sweater department and the only really warm and cozy one is a hideous old and pill-y grey one I can only be seen in at home. I need to go sweater shopping...
I love sweaters and the ones you're showing are definitely cute.

ReplyDeleteAny chance of puppy sweaters to match your gorgeous sweaters? I would love to do a Mommy and me( westie) sweater. Am I scaring you?;-)
ReplyDeleteReally, your sweaters are so lovely! I hope 2010 is filled with dreams come true.xoxo
