Loving Green

Are you a fan of The Purl Shop’s handmade scarves? If you are, we have great news to share! This week, we finished another beautiful piece of handmade scarf in pretty shades of green.

Using European yarn (Made in Italy).

Detailed view.

We chose green this time around because it is suitable for The Purl Shop lovers both in the Northern and Southern hemispheres.

For those of you in the Northern hemisphere, green adds a little liveliness to your Autumn season. Green complements yellow & red autumn leaves so well!

For those of you in the Southern hemisphere, as green represents new life, green is the perfect color to wear in Spring!

We had a little fun with the scarf this time and took photos of the various ways you can mix this scarf with your wardrobe.

With a simple single coloured tee.

With a bright coloured knitwear.

With a cropped blazer and a pair of floral shorts.

Length: 1.8 metres

Width: 14cm

Price: AUD$39 (excluding postage)

Hope you enjoyed our update this week! Remember to drop by next week for more! =)

Strawberry Fields

I have a slight obsession with strawberries. Since the colours of this scarf reminds me of strawberry fields, hence, I have chosen to name this scarf after the song Strawberry Fields (and not forgetting that it would be John Lennon’s 70th birthday last month, if he were still alive today).

We know it has been quite a while since we made a scarf. Fret not, this Spring, we have knitted this scarf…

It’s time to put away your winter clothes and wear something more colorful. Personally, I consider scarf as a necessity and it is easy to match a scarf with almost any outfit. You can wear a scarf with a pair of jeans, shorts, skirt, dresses, formal or even casual.

We made this scarf in shades of pink and purple because these colors just POP while we were choosing the yarns. It is as though we could hear them screaming out to us “Pick me! Pick me!” If you do not want to look dull in your black and white work clothes or maybe your outfit for the day just lacks that little something, simply throw in this pretty pink and purple scarf and you are good to go!

Another reason to love this scarf to bits is the quality of the yarn. The scarf is 100% handmade from European yarn made in Italy, promising to give your skin the softest touch.

Friday

The weather has been gloomy all week. After 5 weeks and 5 balls of yarn, Vivien (a friend of ours) finally completed her beauuuuutiful leg warmer with pompoms. Just in time for winter. It’s starting to get cold by the day. If you’re interested, I’m pretty sure Vivien would not mind to knit you one =)

Deeply saddened by the sudden death of Michael Jackson. I used to sing and dance to his songs when I was little. No doubt a good performer. RIP, MJ.
