Hi, I'm Amy, the Maker-in-Chief behind Grey Matter Collection, a line of cozy + adaptable cold-weather accessories. Think fingerless gloves, scarves, headbands and leg warmers; everything to keep you comfy. My default temp is cold, with a mild sprinkling of overheated, so I think it makes sense that I have created these adjustable heat-inducing designs. When I am not weaving up my next cozy piece,

Still in love with my handmade poppies from made by my sweet girl a couple of years ago. May we always remember.

Day 1 - 📍Booth M35

A day late for this challenge but let’s just squeeze this in. Hi 👋🏼 I am Amy, designer & maker of your fuss-free & cozy chic winter accessories,.... and the gal that you usually see demonstrating all the different ways these cozy accessories can adapt to you.

All the favourites are back,...

♥ multi-way scarves & shawls
♥ effortless cowls
♥ crowd favourite...adjustable fingerless gloves
♥ cuddly headbands

There will be plenty of neutrals for easy coordinating and gifting as well as a few pops of colour as well.

I will be at the full show, all 11 days 📍Booth M35. Please stop by and say hello and feel up the goods.

And because its meet the maker, here's some things you don't particularly need to know but are particular to me,... my gum of choice is juicy fruit or cinnamon, I love plants outdoor and in (current indoor fav is a blue star fern), mom of 10-year-old twins, "mother-of-pearl!" is my go-to curse phrase, and I make your cozy accessories from my home in Ancaster, Ontario.

Linguine…. I think I might be hungry.

Reminder. Taking time to recharge is ok.

The family and I are off on a road trip to PEI for a few weeks of bliss. I will be accepting orders again July 18/22. (I may or may not have brought some weaving with me to do enroute 😉)

Working with blue today and hoping it’s not a foreshadowing to rain ☔️

Some vintage blood orange (though it looks more red here) and a little pooch 🐾 eager to pick up the kids.

Mail drop.

Little something new in the works 🤔 Knee-high leg warmers in mint and black. Not sure if it’s too much with the light and the dark. I am also trying to decide whether to taper them to the ankle or leave it more boxy which will allow you to wear it at either end 🤔🤔🤔 All my leg warmer lovers leave your thoughts… I’d love to hear em✨

I might have been up to a little something… one little triangle has taken over. The reveal up next 👀

Good deed for the day ✔️
Helped a local business grow ✔️

Happy Friday. One more look at this custom fingerless gloves order, a chevron weave in Charcoal with Olive and Steel accent strips.

A snow day and one sweet set heading out the door.🤍❄️

The usual go-to pieces, headband & cowl. -11 degrees wasn’t so bad for my head and neck but my toes on the other hand 🥶.

Taking in the frozen falls with my fam jam.

Hello Violet 💜 The last of my orders that needed to be picked up happen today. Now to hustle and get a few last remaining orders packed up before I pick up the kids.

11/12/2021

Order up.

11/12/2021

First, thank you.

Thank you for coming to and showing up with your smiling eyes, conversations and support of my small business.

I have been a little quiet on here as I have been keeping my head down and hustling to make all of your orders post show.

Thank you for your patience while I get all caught up. A lot of you will be seeing notifications soon that your order has shipped. Do reach out if you would like to pick up your order from Ancaster instead if timelines are a concern.

I appreciate you, I thank you and coziness is on its way.❤️

The most Christmasy pair I’ll make all season. ❤️🎄

Creating the shawl is extra special✨✨✨. This one is for one of my first ever customers who originally purchased from me 8 years ago 😮.

28/11/2021

Today I wore a real top,… and a scarf. After a year of covid and go-to athletic wear on repeat, I’m feeling a little fancy.

Thank you to everyone who came out to today to shop, to say hello and to express well wishes. It means a lot that you are showing up and supporting local. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

This woman. She is my behind the scenes fixer. I am so thankful for her help and support not just with moving into the , but being a weaving superstar, maker of meals and muffins, spoiling our kiddos and of course wrapped up with lots of love. Back at ya mama, I love you.💖

I can’t decide if this is my number one or number two reason for loving this headband. It’s a tie between the coziness factor and me being able to put my hair up in a top knot.

These tend to sell out while at the so scoop up yours early. 😉

Herringbone weave, I love you 🤍💙.

X marks the spot - or at least to the center of each fingerless glove. It is at this spot where I reinforce the weave so that the strips stay just where they’re meant to.

11/11/2021

Lest we forget.

04/11/2021

I’m just going to leave this weave here.

27/10/2021

Tis’ the weather for some coziness. I just made up a large batch of the every popular Charcoal & Black feat. a herringbone weave.

What’s it made of? A lot of people who see my pieces from a far and then come to take a closer look initially think that they are made out of stiff felted wool. They then of course realize it’s the exact opposite, soft, cozy, cuddly fleece.

Am I working on this today? Nope. But I I feel like with the chill in the air I will be reaching for one of these in the morning soon enough.
