Announcement
One-of-a-kind eco-friendly fashion and home accessories from upcycled wool and silk, memory gifts made from loved ones' clothing, and natural fiber sweaters and jackets. Recently featured in SustainableJungle.com.
This sustainable collection includes felted wool mittens, fingerless gloves, purses, pot holders and more crafted from fine lambswool, wool, angora, cashmere and mohair sweaters. Hand-made in a smoke-free environment.
Wool creations are upcycled from natural fibers - cashmere, lambswool, Irish and Shetland wool, angora, alpaca and more. The sweaters are washed in hot water (felted) until luxuriously soft yet sturdy.
Purses are made from 100% silk neckties, and tote bags from blue jeans and other high-quality cottons.
I occasionally find a natural fiber sweater or jacket that is just too beautiful to upcycle, so those are offered in my shop as well.
I'm always happy to do custom orders, whether from your clothing as a memory keepsake or from my fabric stash.

5 out of 5 starsIt can be cold where I work, and I have to use a keyboard. These keep my hands and knuckles very warm, and they are very soft. Love these!

5 out of 5 starsThese are SO soft, warm, and beautifully made, and--best of all!--they hold their shape beautifully! I've tried so many fingerless gloves that end up stretched out after just one or two ears. These always fit like...well, like a glove! :)
