YARN BOMBING, SHOES & RETRO POLAROIDS

I knit to relax and since I already have too many scarves and plenty of blankets I started using my knits to yarn bomb poles and tree’s out front of my house and in my local area.When I’m not knitting in front of the telly or out yarn bombing harmless light poles I make shoes.I hand stitched this pair. The laces are made from grosgrain ribbon & I made little bluebird shoelace hangers for them.I’m very inspired by retro designs so I hand stitched these little toe tappers in paisley.Junk shopping is a pass time of mine & the funny little objects that I find inspire me. I love the kitsch elegance of this swan. I also love the retro feel of polaroid photography.
