Earth, Wind & Fire

(KnottyladyDesigns...)

This fabulous organic wool/soy yarn is gorgeous & felts beautifully. While knitting this bag I thought the colors reminded me of the southwest & the decorative flap is very southwest & reminds me of earth, wind & fire. The funky felted fringe looks like fire and the flap bobbles look like earth & rocks. An I Cord handle pulls through for one handle or two. I placed a golden sun pendant under the flap for even more of a southwestern theme. Enjoy this lovely fun & funky bag aptly named after the 70's group Earth, Wind & Fire whose music combined soul, gospel, jazz & an element of African sounds for cosmic, mystical sprituality which adds to the theme of this bag.

Pretty In Pink (hat & scarf set)

(KnottyladyDesigns...)

Knitted with lovely baby alpaca yarn, this hat is one of my favorite designs/creations. A rolled edge flows into a moss stitch to complete the basic hat. I knitted four leaves & attached them to the top of the hat for perfect parfait perfection & then embellished them with a deep pink floral button which mimics the points on the leaves. I left the points of the leaves to curl a wee bit at the tips. I knitted a long piece in brown baby alpaca in a moss stitch for added warmth on a cold winter's day. It is easily pulled over the basic hat & three floral buttons embellish the front. A crocheted tie pulls through the top edge to ruffle the edges of this brown wrap to create a lovely look for the pink leaves. This ties at the side of the hat & gives it a Victorian look. I then knitted a gorgeous neck warmer with moss stitch and knits & purls for a basketweave look. This is such a lovely set designed for a special lady. Enjoy! Thanks for stopping by.

Wisteria 'Lilac Rose'

(KnottyladyDesigns...)

Statement
Wisteria 'Lilac Rose' is reminiscent of my wisteria garden in La Jolla, California. Knitted/felted holding two skeins of wool and one novelty blend of greens, pinks, purples & lavender which felted into wispy wisteria-like flowers cascading & hanging on like true Wisteria flowers. Purple beaded interior trim adds to its beauty along with pink beads handstitched around the exterior edge. One interior pocket carries on the Wisteria theme. Bottom interior is twice reinforced & boasts a gorgeous fabric covered needlepoint foamcore base for added strength, beauty & durability. A long I Cord handle can either be held double or pulled through for a long over-the-shoulder look. A lovely fashion pin in shades of pink embellishes the top exterior edge. One silver magnetic clasp keeps the contents safe/secure. This bag is graced with a spectacular blossoming of tiny flowers. Wisteria has glamorous, oriental charm & one can almost smell the slightly fragrant wisteria (lilac rose) scent. Enjoy!

Keep It Under Your Hats

(KnottyladyDesigns...)

Fun hats knitted with lovely, soft yarns. The patterns are fun and with different yarns they take on a life of their own with added funky fun yarns & cords. I began with a rolled brim, added 6-8 rows of ribbing & finished off in the round with stockinette stitch. Topped one off with ICORDS in complimenting colors & topped off the other with a pom pom in both colors & an added ruffle for warmth around the face. The Summer Breeze is mostly cotton yarn with a little bit of nylon and fun novelty yarn. Enjoy my hats! Fun to design and to wear!

Send in the Clowns (felted bag)

(KnottyladyDesigns...)

A truly fun bag knitted/felted with Noro Kureyon wool yarn in a gorgeous striping pattern & base knitted with a sienna orange Cascade pastazza wool yarn. A fun, multi-colored novelty yarn added to the lower bottom and to the tightly ruffled top edge with colors which emphasize the colorful Noro wool in rich warm & cool tones. ICord handle pulls through for a double shoulder strap & interior pockets, fabric covered base in hand tie-dyed fabric to match the theme. Sienna orange ICord twists & is knotted & fringed at one side. A lovely beaded trim embellishes the interior top edge. Send in the Clowns is a fun bag & I knitted/felted the base to look like two large clown shoes pointing in either direction-then the striped pattened middle depicts the clown's costume & the ruffled top edge with fun novetly yarn depicts the ruffle around the clown's neck edge. This is a fun bag . Please enjoy 'Send in the Clowns'!

Bourbon Street (Mardi Gras Bag)

(KnottyladyDesigns...)

Bourbon Street Bag knitted/felted into this fun Mardi Gras (New Orleans) celebration & I find it very apropos to have completed this bag for Shrove Tuesday (Fat Tuesday) and the celebrations/merr... taking place in New Orleans & in other places around the world. Celebrations include a carnival atmosphere and this is what I attempted to capture in this Mardi Gras Bourbon Street theme bag. Several lovely wool yarns and many novelty yarns combine to create this fun/frivolous bag with a lovely knitted but NOT felted flap surrounded by a large ruffle which is edged with lovely novelty yarn looking like beads & flowers. I knitted with beads throughout the ruffle giving it more of the carnival/merrymaking atmosphere occurring in places like New Orleans where merriment & excessive indulgence awaken all senses of frivolity before the solemn season of fasting for Lent. Masks, parades, beads, flowers & street dancing enhance the merriment associated with Mardi Gras.Enjoy!

Spring in Giverny (Monet Landscape Bag)

(KnottyladyDesigns...)

Knitted/felted with gorgeous greens & pink organic wool/soy yarns & lovely novelty yarns to give the 'impression' of Monet's 1890 landscape painting 'Spring in Giverny' which is a favorite of mine. The pastels in this landscape bag imitate the lovely pinks & greens of Monet's painting. Monet loved Giverny & his works have a clearness of vision & a fidelity to nature. Welcome to a Monet garden landscape bag with its many tiny pastel novelty pom poms felted into the midst of the bag looking like tiny flowers in a garden. A hand tie-dyed fabric embellishes the bottom interior & lovely pink & green trim surrounds the top interior edge. A lovely shell button embellishes the top edge & two interior pockets & magnetic clasp complete the bag. Two photos show knitted/felted wool/soy (organic) accessory bag. Enjoy!

'Jellicle Cats' (medium tote)

(KnottyladyDesigns...)

"Jellicle Cats are black & white, Jellicle Cats are merry & bright, Jellicle Cats have bright black eyes And wait for the Jellicle moon to rise" from T.S. Eliot's book 'Old Possom's Book of Practical Cats' & from one of my favorite Andrew Lloyd Webber musicals I saw in the London Theatre. This medium tote begins with a black wool base and then novelty yarns are carried upwards depicting Jellicle Cat whiskers, fur & then the large black & white beads which surround the lower top of the bag depict Jellicle Cat's eyes. A lovely fashion button continues the Jellicle Cat black & white theme. The top interior edge has black grosgrain ribbon with white dots carrying on the theme. One interior pocket continues the black & white Jellicle theme as does the double I Cord handle which pulls through for use as a shoulder strap. One magnetic interior closure keeps items secure & the finishing touch is a fabric covered needlepoint foamcore base in a lovely & fun black & white theme. (a Jommi bag) En

Razzle Dazzle Me Bags

Fun & Flirty Stylecraft ICICLE yarn used to design,create & knit this fun Butterfly Bag which will Razzle Dazzle anytime of the day or evening. With fun lining, zippered top-edge closure & double straps it is a versatile bag. I also knitted coin purses/accessory bags in other shades of ICICLE.

Front vintage fashion button adorns the top edge & a loop comes over the top edge to catch the vintage fashion button. Bow knitted/felted separately & handstitched to front like a present waiting to be unwrapped. A lovely ruffle adorns the bottom of this fun holiday bag.

Blue Danube

(KnottyladyDesigns...)

A lovely eyeglass case knitted/felted with organic wool/soy yarn in lovely shades of blues & then needlefelted with gorgeous mohair yarns. A lovely triangular flap comes over the top to catch a silver heart-shaped fashion button. The flap is also needlefelted & beaded around the edges with sparkling seed beads in two shades of blue. An ICORD knitted/felted strap allows it to be worn over-the -head with your glasses always nearby & for length of strap; an ICORD stretches with time so begin with a shorter strap. It can also be dampened and pulled into a longer length. It is stunning in person & the photos do not do it justice. This case was a special order. Enjoy the Blue Danube. These eyeglass cases can be made-to-order in any color or needlefelting/spe... buttons or charms. Contact me through wearableartdesign... Thank you!

Stomping Grapes

(ClaudiaD)

Stomping Grapes. The gallery name is from a small shoulder bag. Somehow for me, the creative process always seems to involve turning one thing into another that usually includes too much stuff, stained hands and mess everywhere. Often there's laughter, sometimes there's crying, but there is always that finished work/bottle of wine to enjoy at the end.

Most of these bags are for sale, please contact me for information.
