Spotlight: Smittens


Well, December crept up very, very quickly this year. I've been a busy little elf, and after sewing all day at the studio I have been going home everyday (well... almost everyday... okay SOME days, let's be honest) and cutting and sewing loads of Smittens for my own label, Skeptic.

There are awesome new colors this year: fuschia, brown, moss green, black, peacock blue and denim. I've also tried out a new applique, a sweet little bird who gets along real well with the other embellishments, especially the squirrel; I imagine they are great friends. There are many different combinations available, so ask about current stock. They are made of a cozy boiled wool and are fitted, but still stretch nicely.

Now, these Smittens are limited--I will be making a few more short runs, but time (and fabric) is running out, so get 'em while you can.

Victoria Update: a chill is in the air

Well fellow Victorians and Vancouverites, I don't know about you (perhaps I am just a spoiled west-coast baby) but this past week has been c-o-l-d.

Don't fret though! With the oncoming winter I love the process of discovering all of my awesome winter gear. Beautiful patterned pashminas, warm oversized sweaters, wool socks, toques, berets and all manners of hats. Not to mention all the beautiful colours! Rich reds, fuzzy soft whites, glistening greens, deep blues, and my new favorite the vibrant warm golden mustardy yellow.

And in case you've got the shivers like I do, you should come check out all of our new winter accessories at the stores.
