HandmadeKnut

HandmadeKnut I offer handmade items and recycled, reused, or repurposed goods. Whatever comes out of my mind. I also work on comission for that perfect piece, just for you.

I work in several different mediums, knit and crochet, resin, acrylic paints and beading. I am a M.O.M. (Manager of Mayhem). I'm also the proud grandmother to six. I am a rapid cycling manic depressive and after years of therapy, more drugs than I could shake a stick at and side effects that still affect me today, I found that creating things, whether it be beading, knitting, crocheting, or findin

g new purpose for old things, is the best therapy, more fulfilling, and at the end, I have something tangible that I will hope give joy to someone else. I am also passionate about keeping the history of the needle arts alive. Thinking about our foremothers and fathers sitting before a fire with nothing but yarn, a hook or needles, and then making something so beautiful, functional, and loving is incredible. Every time I see a piece of lace or make a piece, I'm simply amazed that it was just some yarn and a hook. We definitely need to keep this art form alive. There is just something that a handmade piece can say. It tells the person you are giving it to that you know them, care abut them, and wanted to give them something that matched them and they couldn't find anywhere else. Not to mention, don't forget yourself! Need something special to go with a particular outfit or want something that matches your decor perfectly? Then contact me for a custom item. Together, I'm sure we can come up with just what you were looking for. Diagnosed with fibromyalgia, arthritis, carpal tunnel, and unable to take any of the medications used in treatment, being able to stay productive, hopefully make something that I can sell to buy more materials to make more things is my dream. I can't imagine a day without creating something. Thank you so much for visiting my page and my shop!!

Just some of my many many orphans. Unless you're a maker, it's hard to understand the connection you feel with your creations and the abject devastation and feelings of failure a maker experiences when no one wants their master pieces. So much of them goes into each piece so its personal.

When you craft because it keeps you sane and you're just hoping to sell what you make so you can buy more supplies, its even more frustrating. I'm on disability, creating is the only time my mind is quiet and until I start selling things, I've had to pull back on supplies and I've been lost. I was blessed with a bunch of crafting supplies from a tailor of 50+ years and am finally close to having everything put away and organized. Hoping to sew something soon!!
