FO: Baby Sheep Stitch Markers

Yesterday I blogged about how to store your notions. Well in today's post I'm going to share with you notions that my sister made! Introducing the first of many stitch markers to come!

These were absolutely impossible to photograph. Does anyone know what type of lens works best for close up images? I need better pictures for when I post these in my Etsy store! :]

However this is my personal herd of little sheep. I absolutely adore these stitch markers! Also she is designing some crochet stitch markers for all of you happy hookers!

When I finally defeat my current wips and the Ravellenic games are finished I'm going to do some silversmith work and make shawl pins. Also I am still working on those purse handles for knitted items as well as ceramic yarn bowls. So much to do and so little time! My baby (sewing machine) is currently out of commission so the needle cases have been postponed until she's all better.

Also this past week I did finish a bag, "Life's a Beach Tote"... still in the process of writing the final pattern up. I might carry some of these in the store, what do you think?

Make sure you check back this week for more great organization tips and ideas!

Open for Business!

Welcome to Misty Mountain Designs!

After much effort and dedication, the Etsy store is now open for business! As of now, you can find handmade items and in the near future you will find hand dyed yarns, hand made leather purse handles and hand made knitting needle cases.

This blog will be dedicated to all of my fiber adventures as well as tips and techniques that I will share. I have also extended this blog to connect with several social media sites. Firstly, my Pinterest boards reflect my personal aesthetic in which I derive my inspiration. Next, my Twitter account is where you can receive updates about the store and when new items are listed. And as with any fiber artist, Ravelry is where I spend most of my time, and is also where you can contact me.

Lastly, if you see anything on the blog that inspires you and would like to have created for you, please feel free to request a custom item in my Etsy store. As time moves on there will be more items listed but in the meantime please save my store to your favorites for updates.

A big thanks to everyone in my family who helped to make this happen and who sparked my interest in the fiber arts. I have big plans for this blog as well as my store and I cannot wait to share them with you!
