Sneak peek – new Yarn Bowls and Wooly Muggeths!

These ones will be cute, promise. I was getting bored of throwing the same shape every time, so I’ve gone and had a little fun with this round.

This is Fred. He likes yarn, probably as much as I do.

(Ahem) rear view; Fred has been created from a mold, so I can make a little army of Fred’s to guard each pot.

This is Sally – she’s got her own yarn to hang out with.

What? Valentines is coming up, you know.

This one will be lovely – I can’t wait to glaze it =o)

Wooly muggeths

And I couldn’t forget the latest round of wooly muggeths – destined to be wrapped in what’s left of my TFA Grape and Mallard skeins. Who doesn’t want frogs in their drink?

Updated pics to come when this lot has been fired and glazed =o)

In other news, I’ve been pre-approved for my first mortgage! Tomorrow I’m viewing my first prospective properties, I’m sure there will be trials and tribulations ahead, but right now all I can think of is how much fun house shopping sounds. Did I say house? I meant snazzy, sexy, waterfront condo shopping. w00t!

Merging two loves – yarn and clay.

Late night double posting today; I wanted to share some things I just got out of the kiln – these are yarn bowls and yarn bells for knitting and crochet. The construction is simple and elegant, you place your ball of yarn either in the bell or in the bowl, thread your yarn through the groove and knit away! The pottery keeps your ball turning smoothly  while you work, keeping it dust and pet-free, while also preventing it from rolling away on you. I’ve tried out each one myself, and they work like a charm :)

*Post Update* – these beauties are now available at the Purple Purl here in Toronto. They got a mention in Canadian Living Magazine and people love them =o) Want to order one, but don’t live in Toronto? Have a custom request? Email me at hello@thebluebrick.ca! Or click here to see my latest pieces =o)
