i apologize for the cross posting in advance, but i'm looking for some craft fair / market type places in NYC to sell my stuff over the holidays. as a kid my mom and i used to do craft fairs all over cali and washington, but im having more trouble finding them in the tri-state area. im already going to be at the market next month, does anyone have any other suggestions. being mostly unemployed as i am, i spend all my days creating and have amassed alot of stuff. im going to have my website up when i get back from san fran next week, but i'd love to find other outlets. thanks!

I spent about 4-5 hours working on this new bracelet. I saw it in the current issue of Bead & Button a while back and vowed to try it. Mine didn't turn out quite like theirs, but I also used tiger tail, so each fringe kinda went off in it's own direction, but I know it will hold up. I have a tendicy to break bracelets. Anywho, just wanted to share it with you guys. If you want to see a close up picture, I will put it behind the cut.

a question for the knitters...

[ardenelizabeth.livejournal.com]

i recently made a really cute scarf in the type of stitch that curls...you know, where you k one row, p the next, etc. i thought that by doing two stitches on the border of the scarf in the garter stitch, that would stop it from curling. unfortunately, it hasn't...it's still cute, but i would like it a lot more if it would lay flat. i tried blocking it by getting it damp and then laying it out flat to dry, but that didn't help. it's part acrylic and part wool, should i try and iron it? is there a good way to make this lay flat permanently?

thanks for your help!
