Being back in Western Massachusetts really puts into perspective how absolutely amazing the sky is. At night you can actually see stars, the moon, everything. It's so magical.

🎀 The Alisa Top 🎀

This top is named after one of the owners of one of my sources of materials, @burgisbrook . While I only spoke with her briefly at @nefiberfestival , it was clear to me that this was one of the farms I wanted to source some of my materials from because of how prevalent her association with @ctfibershed was at the farm booth. After I got back to NYC from the festival, I spent quite a while reaching about their process, the yarns, the animals they keep, etc., and found this source to be incredibly in line with my own values. Additionally, over the course of my thesis project I've been so grateful and astounded at the amount of support they've shown to me on social media. Incredibly kind and inspirational, please have a look at not only their SM but also their website. Wonderful work they are doing ❤️

Last outtake I'll be sharing from this group of photos I took, unless for some reason I'm unable to take any more in about 2 weeks time. I'm just too excited about this to not share NOW!! haha. Thank you all for your support 🥺💖 it truly means the world to me.
A preview of my thesis work inspired by the Wistariahurst museum in Holyoke MA

Made with-
- local Angora rabbit yarn from Florence MA
- @catskillmerino yarn from the Union square farmers market
- @burgisbrook #burgisbrook alpaca yarn from @nefiberfestival - ethically sourced leather made from the "waste" found in dumpsters of local hunting clubs (found and tanned by one of my friends)
- hardware made from upcycled/repurposed damaged Victorian jewelry

100% #zerowaste and #handmade through the utilization of made-to-measure #bobbinlace techniques.

Not only did I FINALLY conquer this shawl design after frogging & changing the whole thing like 4 times, but I actually got all the ends sew in (most of which were the result of working with bits of yarn from versions 1, 2 & 3) &everything! Swipe to see my victory dance!
.
There were 147 ends. No exaggerating. That's how badly I wanted this shawl to exist. I SEWED IN 147 ENDS. (I promise, while it's striped and will have lots of ends, it won't be 147 when you make it!). .
So I'm currently calling her Shiloh, Serenity & Stripes (but I've also changed the name 147 times basically) & I will hopefully I will be doing a tester call later this week! Keep a look out!
