Hello all - I'm looking forward to meeting others who design and create handmade items. I've recently been interviewed for a blog on knitwear designers around the world and thought I'd include a link here so you can learn a bit about me in a more interesting way than a few sentences in this post. www.aroundtheworldin80skeins.com/#!THAILAND/cmbz/E0B09F49-8B9B-49F8-9B39-091EA8599A8B Thanks for looking! MichaelH

Your scarves are so beautiful! I love the colours and textures. I'm a knitter too, but I've never had the attention span for clothes and scarves and things, so I stick with dolls

Great selection in your shop Kettle. I'm sure that they'll do well once buyers find them. Good luck with your shop!

Thanks for the welcomes everyone. Thailand's a great place to live, particularly if you don't like cold weather. I'm headed away on a trip tomorrow though looking for some fall color, yarn, beads, and shawl pins!

Welcome Michael! I've been thinking of making some brooches and shawl pins this fall. I have been seeing them more and more lately. Love how lightweight your pieces look. I like scarves, but mostly it is too hot to wear anything substantial and still be comfortable here.

I'm currently traveling and keeping an eye open for some pins/brooches/sticks to add to the items in my shop, to sell with the handknits.

Welcome to the forum, Michael. Your scarves are unique and lovely. I faved an pinned a few items.
I learned to knit years ago, but the only thing I ever finished was a really unattractive vest! Sewing, especially quilts, is my first love and I sell quilts and quilted items in my shop. We have a number of crocheters and knitters here. You're in great company.
