Starting to work on pretty little lacy knitted face cloths for the fall and Christmas markets. They are all natural fibres, as always … cotton, linen, tencel, bamboo, silk or h**p - or various blends of those. The autumn colors are lovely … and I’ll be making some with Christmas colors, too. These will retail as a package of two (same color) for $14.95, or in a gift pack with a local artisan soap for $19.95.

Want some? 😊 Comment below, or email waterbornedesigns at gmail dot com (note the ‘e’ in waterborne)!

Sometimes we artists have to remind ourselves of this, to value ourselves!

Giveaway is over

Hi there, I am Mandy, from the Comox Valley, on Vancouver Island, in British Columbia, in Canada. I am the sole artist behind the scenes of Spun Ware Over The Rainbow. I have been dabbling in the fiber arts since I was 15 when my grandmother taught me how to knit. The first thing I made was a flat rainbow piece that I crudely formed into a hat shape and wore proudly for years. I am happily married to my amazing supportive husband Michael for 23 years. He also likes to dye wool and has his own line Batt-man and Bobbin when he is off work he like to try new colorways. We have 4 amazing children who are now young adults. Two daughters 21, and 22, and two sons 18, and 17 busy busy busy. I started crocheting hats when they were really little to make some extra income Pojewear and it just took off from there. I absolulty love rainbows, but I mean who doesn’t? I have finally hit a milestone on this page 7000 followers woohooo. and I’d like to celebrate with you busy having a giveaway. You could win a rainbow on either fiber or yarn which ever you chose if you are picked. To enter, follow these steps.

My last 2022 commission going in the mail today, yay! These Soctopus’s are pretty cute, hey? Already have other commissions lined up until April of 2023… 🙂

I seem to be knitting a lot of socks these days …. ❤ 

Taking a break from my usual lace shawl knitting to do a line of light-hearted Valentines “love wands.” These measure 9” high (the heart is about 2” x 2”), in all the right colours, and will retail for $12.95. Want some? ❤ 🙂
