Boutique fingerless gloves

This model was inspired by Spring.

I had a bit of wool and ribbon left in the same color and had the idea of making something chic and unique.

Valentine's Day inspirations

2011-02-11T11:53:00.000-08:00

For Valentine's Day people tend to wear something red. I had this red yarn for a while and have decided to knit something sweet and different - a lace shrug and frilly fingerless gloves.
I was well pleased when I found out that this red shrug was included in the following blog post:

Fingerless Gloves

2011-01-19T09:51:00.000-08:00

I like accessories - gloves,bags,scarves,wallets and although I have plenty of leather gloves I have decided to knit this winter few pairs of fingerless gloves.These gloves have everything you could want in a pair of fingerless gloves. Warmth, comfort,support, and eye appeal. They are soft and cozy.
They will keep your hands warm while allowing you to do many activities like taking photographs outside, driving, taking the bus, even text messaging on your phone while waiting for the bus!
I find them very comfortable when I wear rings or read on the train.

The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald - a story of trust,class, and wanting

2011-01-11T09:38:00.000-08:00

I have read a while ago that F. Scott Fitzgerald  penned a masterpiece writing "The Great Gatsby", and  I can confirm that there's a reason that it's considered one of the very best American novels. It was a quick read - I couldn't put it down simply because it was written marvelously and everyone could relate to it.

Although, written in 1925, is a fictional tale that takes place during the American Jazz Age. The story is set in the eastern U.S. and follows the journey of a young man named Nick Carraway. The hero of his story, which frames the novel, is the legendary Jay Gatsby - a legend in his own mind. Although Carraway's narration is often heavily biased and unreliable, what emerges are the stories of a set of aimless individuals, thrown together in the summer of 1922. Daisy Buchanan is the pin that holds the novel together - by various means, she ties Nick to Jordan Baker, Tom Buchanan to Jay Gatsby, and Gatsby to the Wilsons.

The way Gatsby is depicted paints two portraits of one man, a man who  has everything; a fabulous mansion, money, cars and all of the other  worldly possessions one can hope for, and the other; a man who has  everything but what he desires most, the love he would give everything  up for.  In the end, Daisy and friends are revealed as nothing more than  snobbish drunks.

From the book we learn that often the desire for something is better than  actually having it and that one true friend is infinitely more important  than a multitude of acquaintances.  

This is a brilliant novel and I recommend it to everyone.  "The Great Gatsby" is a timeless classic.
