Be Sweet |
|
Be Sweet's new embroidered cases and totes are designed
by South African designer Irene Werner. They are made in
a Durban‑based workshop that offers fair working
opportunities to highly-skilled craftspeople who have
suffered hardships brought about by war, famine and HIV.
These beautiful pieces are natural linen with African retro‑style Shwe‑Shwe linings. Each
piece is
accompanied by a beautiful hand‑beaded buckle or charm
crafted by Zimbabwean bead workers. |

Warm Up!
"Who would
have thought that sleeveless and short-sleeved dresses, jackets and coats would
be appropriate for fall and winter? Fashionable and functional arm warmers cover
bare arms perfectly as shown here in fabulous knits. Keeping cozy never looked
so chic!"

Stitch Diva's Uncommon Wristlets are portable projects perfect for toting to the
beach. Find yourself fashionably ready for fall! Craft arm warmers now. Knit or
crochet. They are fast and fun.

Don’t fret if you were not able to get an Addi Click Interchangeable Set when we
offered them earlier this year. We will re‑introduce these great needle sets
anew when they are in stock, in hand, and ready to ship out the door to you.
That we promise.
Keep cool and enjoy August,
Ann and Natalie |
