Geometric necklaces - bow tie alternatives PART 3

Bow ties became very popular in last couple years and I always enjoy making them, but I told myself maybe it's time to offer something different, similar to bow ties, but SOMETHING NEW.  I've started to make unisex bow tie alternatives from quality leatherette which are ideal for any occasion, even everyday wear. I have already posted PART 1 and PART 2 and now it's time for new addition to my shop - PART 3 !

Geometric shaped headbands by MirkaDesign

I love all kinds of geometric accessories. Combination of circles, hexagons, squares and so on can add really nice finish to your outfit! I found some spare leather and suede pieces so I transferred them into something eye-catchy and of course geometric!

This cute handmade geometric headband features black leather and cream suede triangles arranged in a half circle. The geometric head piece is attached to one size metal non corrosive headband and secured by a piece of leather from the inside. The headband is suitable for any occasion.

This one is made from false suede triangles and it goes well with black top or combination of black and cream or even white! 

 

And finally arrow shaped head-band made from combination of black and cream triangles attached securely to black metal headband. 

I have another idea how to use spare leather, and I will share it with you very soon! :)

Knitting organizers

When I started selling on Etsy my product range was quite small. Well, it's still small, but it was even smaller at the time! :) My very first item I listed and sold was notebook cover, then laptop cover (sleeve) and then padded bag,.. Since then I have been sewing covers for almost everything! I enjoy doing various covers, cases, bags, ... because they keep things we like protected and safe! 

These cases below are knitting organizers! They are designed to store all your knitting needles (circular, double pointed and straight), hooks & cords as well as extra goodies. 

The fabric I used for this knitting case / organizer is hand-dyed by my friend Beata, who has also Etsy shop where she sells beautiful hand dyed yarns.

The knitting organizers have approx. 30 pockets, the smallest is 1 inch wide, the biggest is 4 inch wide. There is a flap at the top to keep needles in place. 

The above is a knitting case set made for Maire - The first case is just like the one above it and the other one keeps also wool and bigger needles inside while smaller needles are in outside pockets ready to be used anytime. The organizers are made from beautiful Amy Butler fabric.

The light brown fabric with flower print below gives the organizer a vintage feeling. It is one of my favorite!

 

 

I have done 3 cases from fabric below which were sold immediately. It closes with Velcro dots, not with strings. I personally think strings are better as the case thickness vary when it's full or half full and it might be a problem to close the organizer exactly where the Velcro spot is.

 

 

This was my very first knitting organizer! It is made from durable cotton fabric, it has secret pockets and it also closes with strings. 

I do not have any knitting organizers available for purchase in my shop at the moment. I usually sew them on request. if you are interested please contact me via Etsy or e-mail me!
