Owls and Guitars

Last week I added the Owl chart to the store, without the usual fanfare because I expected to have the Guitar charts up as well. The Guitar charts became bigger and more involved every time I looked at them, so they’re finally finished almost a week late, and were added to the store yesterday.

I added a guitar to my son’s Versa vest, a new pattern by Shannon, and I’m really pleased with the result.

I am equally thrilled with how the other part of the Guitars set has turned out:

This is Julie’s test embellishment on her new Explorer Vest pattern.

The Guitars are available as two separate sets – Accoustic or Electric – or together at a special combined price. Each set includes four guitars of varying sizes and you can see more details on the Classic charts page.

The Owl design is also available on the Classic page. My last entry showed off Julie’s Owl embellishment, and here is Shannon’s version of the owl.

I love the way the variegated yarn looks like an eerie cloudy night sky, and the way Shannon has added a moon to increase the night sky effect.

I would like to add a very special thanks to Kath, Shannon and Julie for their work in testing these designs, for letting me use their photos, and for all their valuable feedback in the testing process.

Next up in the designing process is a set of butterflies and another fairytale set. Perhaps even some special little people. I’ll also be spending some time working on a big embellishment for my son. I was inspired by Julie’s hoodie in the last entry, so I made one for my eldest son. Of course it won’t be finished until it is embellished, so I’d best keep working on it to have it finished before his birthday at the end of the month.
