Every handmade item has a story and Baby Owlet skirts are no exception. When I reclaim unwanted sweaters for my wOOly items, there is always a back story to where and who the material belonged to. For example, a sweater that belonged to a lady named Helen was passed along to me to be remade into something useful. This particular lady, who visited a many ashram in her day, spent four long days this summer explaining to me her whole life story filled with love, mystery and desire ( I was helping her with yard work). While making the Owlet Skirt, I thought of her and the skirt took on an identity of its own.
I think that when an item has a story attached to it, it becomes that much more valued and special, even if some of that story is somewhat embellished:)
I hope you will enjoy the introduction of Baby wOOly Owlet Skirts,
From my hands to yours,
