Sweater Weather -- Never Better Vintage


A chill in the air means pulling out the sweaters: soft, woolly, fuzzy, chunky, angora, cashmere, chenille; wraps, shrugs, cardigans, pullovers, turtlenecks. I love them all, the feeling of a cozy cocoon of warmth, way better than a blanket and, heaven forbid, a Snuggie! My favorite of all are vintage, embellished with adorable rhinestone or pearl buttons, embroidered or detailed, an aged softness you can't replicate without time. The styles and colors are endless, and thanks to the 'reloved' movement, you can find zillions at the click of a button. Of course, I still love to hunt on foot for these priceless treasures in my little local shops...

  3. I really love your work, what a talented lady, you need to get someone to feature your handmade items on an etsy treasury, here is one of my treasuries featuring handmade artisians who deserve a little praise.
