Create Something Every Day



Be sure to visit the lovely etsy shop Taylor House http://taylorhouse.etsy.com/
 Chaucee finds it "essential to create something every day". In addition to her crafting hobbies she loves to visit vintage shops on the outskirts of town and post her finds right in her shop!
Have fun!

Hello there! My name is Chaucee.I run an etsy shop called http://taylorhouse.etsy.com/  Taylor House where I sell warm handmade knits (including headbands, cowls, scarves and hats) as well as showcase all the lovely vintage finds I come across. 




It's something that started out as a fun way to share my knitting projects with people, but turned into a passion full time. As for my workspace, my knitting takes place anywhere. This includes on the couch watching a good movie, or just anywhere I can find a seat and good conversation! I love to make cozy items that will last through quite a few seasons.

When it comes for a shop update you can find me, a white wall, and my tripod setting up for a little "mini session" photo shoot to be uploaded later that day. In my spare time I write for a blog titled The Searched and Found where we talk all about the lovely finds on etsy. You can also visit my personal blog Lah Mode where I post pictures from my day to day life as well as talk about shop updates,discounts and giveaways!

Designer Knit Trends and Fashions

Lana O'Neill is the creator and designer for KnitBerry.com site. She has a passion to make stylish accessories for women. Her designs "come from intense research of fashion and seasonal trends and color. I pick my favorite designers, which for this Fall 2009 season are Marc by Marc Jacobs and Chanel. I then decide what type of hat or scarf would go with their runway outfits, and that's how I create my items. " Enjoy a visit to her stylish Etsy shop http://www.knitberry.etsy.com/ and her website http://www.knitberry.com/ .
Don't forget to have a peek at her adorable children's knits too.

KnitBerry.com website started 2 years ago with primary focus on handmade knitwear for children. Many people saw what I have made for my little kids and wanted me to make them the same thing. But I also had a passion to make stylish accessories for women. That is what I am primarily making now and of course I cannot forget about the kids so I design fun hats and make outfits as special orders. I knit just about anywhere - at home, in the car (while my husband is driving), while I wait for the kids to get off school, on vacation... I knit when I get inspired, and that can happen just about anywhere, so I always make sure to bring my knitting needles, and a notebook, just in case I need to sketch a design while it's fresh in my head.




















My favorite needles to use are the circular needles. Many people ask me why do I use two "needles on wires" and it is because it is easier to measure the knitted item. It is also easier on my hands, because on straight needles the knitted fabric seems to weigh down on my wrists. Lately, because of so many projects, my hands have been suffering. I am trying to limit my time knitting and that also means choosing most meaningful projects to make, since I can only make so many. My designs come from intense research of fashion and seasonal trend and color. I pick my favorite designers, which for this Fall 2009 season are Marc by Marc Jacobs and Chanel. I then decide what type of hat or scarf would go with their runway outfits, and that's how I create my items. Hope you enjoy wearing them as much as I enjoy making them!
