An otherwise ordinary Friday.

Friday is always better with a little knitting, felt, or jewelry love. Wishing you all of them.

It would be a typical Friday, if it weren’t for the fact that I’m wearing my favorite recycled cashmere sweater (with a hint of lace) and my new Cara Romano earring, acquired at VKLive. They’ve got tiny turquoise felted beads placed in a silver setting. I’m smitten.

This weekend, Cara is at the American Craft Council show in Baltimore.

You can see more of her lovely jewelry here. Her beautiful site is FLASH, so I can’t pin all the lovely photos, but here’s her felt ball color chart, really, do you need more?

My RISD friend Anna Katherine Johnson Curfman will also be there. She owns a great felt clothing company called Indigo Crane.  This is one of her pieces. She sells on her website and in galleries. Her work is lovely.

I hope your Friday is filled with crafty clothing and hand-made jewelry. I’m off to New York Monday for the lingerie trade show, booth 123, so if you are in town, do visit. -j.
