“I drew inspiration for my signature line from
the motif that has remained my favorite for over 25
years. I just love the way it makes me feel, and I
knew I had to personalize my first line of needles
with the glamour and fun of the eternally fashionable
leopard print. To top off the funky look, I paired
the tawny browns and black with a slammin’ gold
finial, carefully antiqued to appear a little distressed.
How very chic.
My signature line had to be perfect.
I’m a perfectionist
and I couldn’t stand the way painted wooden needles
snagged my yarn when I knitted with them. With Addis
as my inspiration, I researched obsessively for over
a year to find a protocol for achieving a glass-smooth
finish on birch, and found it! My needles aren’t
turbo, but they’re close. And,
presentation is so important to me. I love the way
the black marabou boa looks. The
combination of
old Hollywood glamour with the kitsch of leopard print
is too cool.
My
Signature Leopard Line will always be available to
crafters, with needles in sizes 8, 10, 10.5, 11,
13, 15, 17, and 19, crochet hooks
in sizes H, J, K, L, and M, and unique shawl
pins. The newest addition to the Signature line,
my
shawl pins provide crafters
with a fashionable accessory to wear with their
handiwork.”

New for Fall 2007! Jack

Bella
Blue introduces "Jack Frost!" Magical
snowflakes grace these 2007 limited edition needles designed
by artist Beth Bess. Blue and white snowflakes dance
across a soft powder blue needle adorned by a pearlescent
winter
white finial.
These lovely
crafters' collectibles are hand painted on birch and
finished with a sealant for years of enjoyment.
Each comes packaged in a powder blue boa, making it the
perfect gift for anyone whose motto is "let it snow." Get
yours while they are available, because just like a snowflake
in the afternoon sun, these special collectibles won't
be around forever.
Knitting needles,
crochet hooks, and shawl pins all available in Jack Frost.
