Happy Finished Object Friday!
(Community edition-forgot to post last week 🤦🏻‍♀️)

Kristi came by during Friday morning Stitch & B*tch to show off her finished vest!

She finally found the perfect pattern for the Noro Yarns Rikka that she had picked up in the shop this past spring!

Like many of us, Kristi loooooves Noro yarn and is about to cast on another vest! She’s a vest machine 😎

Rikka is a gorgeous bulky weight blend of 57% Wool, 22% Alpaca, 21% Silk

Happy Finished Object Friday!
(Smalls edition)

BARBIE!

My “Teen Talk Barbie” is now “Back to School Barbie” sporting her fabulous new outfit made from Cascade Yarns Cotton Sox with the help of Grandma Bacchiocchi’s old doll clothes patterns!

Her skirt is a crochet patterns from 1984 and her sporty letter jacket is a knitting pattern from 1996!

DUCKS!!

Did you know that ducks in flight are called a skein, just like geese?

Well a skein of ducks have just landed at NBFA and I’m getting them ready for their cold weather stay with the help of Grandma Bacchiocchi’s crochet cotton! (various discontinued brands and patterns from my brain)

Happy WIP Wednesday!

Officially adding myself to the family tradition of making doll clothes by knitting and crocheting my “Teen Talk Barbie” a back to school outfit to celebrate the shifting season!

I’ve been slowly compiling collections of vintage fiber arts patterns that span from the 1930s-1990s, most of them coming from both sides of my family.

The cleaning out of my paternal family home is complete and the majority of the contents of this binder came from my Grandmother Mildred Bacchiocchi.

While we are still in the process of cleaning out my Maternal family home, it’s been allot of fun to finding usable crafting treasures, complete and incomplete projects as well as MANY MANY patterns and tools. Three generations of crafty women lived in that house, there’s mountains of crochet lace, fillet crochet, needlework and tatting from my Great-Great Grandma Malagutti. Knitting, sewing, rug hooking and chair caning from her daughter, my Great-Grandma Norma and her sister Elenor. Knitting, sewing, quilting, pattern making and painting from her daughter, my Grandma Louise.

I come from a long line of makers, it’s in my DNA and I’m grateful to be a part of their legacy.

Come by the shop to check out some of their handiwork, I have examples from each of the above women and will be adding more in the future!
