This linen 'Renata' sweater is one of those rare finds that stays in active use for-practically-ever.  It's handwashable and easy care.  It's wrinkle resistant and great for travel.  And it can be dressed up or down depending on mood and need.  Designed and handmade by Sue Peterson, who hand knits all her sweaters on a loom, you can rest assured it's top-notch quality throughout.  Renata comes in the Marble color shown here, plus Lemongrass, and Denim.  Sizes range from XS to XL and its elegant flared bottom trapeze style will be flattering on all sizes and shapes.  This is a great time to get this piece because Artful Home is running their yearly summer sale and it can be had for 15% off the regular $250 price.  Use Coupon Code SUMMER11 at checkout to bring that price down to $212.50.  But be sure to do it soon because the sale ends 6/30.

felted forsythia blossoms on silk scarf

I absolutely love forsythyia blossoms.  One of the many delights of spring in my neck of the woods is the vibrant patches of rooted sunshine they bring.  So when I checked in to see what's new with Elizabeth Rubidge, I smiled out loud at her new Pippa limited edition scarves inspired by forsythia blossoms.  The blossom motif is wet felted onto a 16 x 66 inch length of beautiful black silk.  This is a nice long scarf that can be worn loose and flowing or as a shawl.  There are four colors, black/white, blue/black, violet/black, and the pictured golden/black.  Production is limited to three in each color, so they won't be available for long.  And this is a great time to get one because Artful Home is running it's yearly summer sale. Regular price is $200, but if you purchase this month, you'll get 15% off, bringing it down to $170.  Use Coupon Code SUMMER11 to get the savings.
