Button Angels


Yes, you read that right! The Dorset buttons are still providing me with a good excuse to find ways of making something other than buttons out of them! I decided to have a go at some angels. The first one I suppose you could describe as 'cute'.


The next one I made, Goth Angel, I like better but the photo doesn't really do her justice because of the dark clothing.


I raided my vintage supplies for this one. Her skirt is made from vintage lace and is edged with a vintage trim. She is carrying a vintage Gothic bell & tassels charm and I knitted her a sparkly shawl from Kidsilk Night.

  3. Hi KnitYoga,

    I love them both but I am of course leaning toward the darker one more.

    She is just beautiful. You have made my heart flutter when I saw her.

    Hugs, Euphoria

    These looks amazing!

    I am so glad to have found your wonderful Blog again, hope you are well...it may be the run up to Christmas, but I always get a pang of nostalgia for the shop at this time of year. I am thrilled you have that set of pics from the workshop still, my computer crashed a couple of years ago and I lost every single picture we had, I would be so grateful if you might email them to me?

    Would be great to stay in touch.
