OG, Fashion Designer!

I have taken up a new hobby during the colder months--knitting! Yeah, I know...Just how OLD and ANCIENT am I? But let me tell you a little something I have discovered...It seems that knitting isn't just for old ladies anymore. All the hipsters are into knitting, too! I even read a news article about knitting being a "hot" hobby for the younger generations.

So I gave it a try and some of my creations look pretty cool. Pretty soon I was giving away matching hat and scarf sets to my family and friends and taking specific requests. I am in the process of completing some family orders as we speak. And since I am knitting in the new style using looms rather than needles, my production is much faster.

I think I should start taking orders and begin my own business on the side. I'll call it OG Designs. Besides what better way to keep warm on a hiking trail than a stylish beanie created by OG Designs? You pick the color and type of yarn (there are so many materials now that you wouldn't believe!) and I make your hat, scarf, or a set of both.

But OG Designs doesn't stop here! Oh no, we (I) also make purses, handbags, shawls, wraps, and mittens. And there is a special line for children here at OG Designs for kids of all ages including infants...or as we (I) call them here at OG Designs, hikers in training. We (I) can make baby beanies and (hiking) booties.

Sometime in the near future, we (I) will be adding blankets, throws, sweaters, and shrugs into the mix.

So take a look and place your orders today! Sorry, no CODs or personal checks accepted. ;)


This is my ultra hip 3 piece camo colored set of hat, scarf and purse. I tried to embellish it with a little something extra to make it cuter so I knitted and added flowers to the scarf and purse and instead of the usual fringe on the ends of the scarf, I made and attached pom-poms.







A closer look at the purse.








I made this shaggy, fuzzy hat for my crazy Aunt C.












A look at the hikers in training line. I made the blue hat and a matching pair of hiking booties for my friend's baby. :)






Here I'm modeling a fuzzy wrap I made using some soft brown yarn and mulitcolored Fun Fur. This one is extremely soft and my dear cat Lucy likes to cuddle up to it.









A closer look at the wrap. AKA Lucy's favorite creation of mine.











And speaking of Miss Lucy, here she is inspecting my yarns. Everything at OG Designs is Lucy approved!





So let's see...I have the old lady hobby and I have the cat. Guess I should just face the fact and buy an old wooden rocking chair and look into retirement.

Nah, just kidding! Remember that knitting is hip, folks! So get those orders in soon!
