All year, I'm featuring #ArtisansCooperative artists! Today, I'm sharing the exquisite work of ThronesWoven, an Indigenous #Canadian creator weaving dreamcatchers. I asked my parents for one after seeing them at a cultural exhibit when I was young; as an anxious child, it offered night-time reassurance, and it hung in my room for many years. As an adult, I now see the love and care put into the weaving--a powerful form of protection itself.

This month, for my #ArtisansCooperative feature, I’m sharing the work of The Storyteller’s Art—a fibre artist in #Ontario, #Canada. Her embroidered work includes frame-able pieces, as well as ornaments. I particularly love the winter chickadee, shown below—I identify with her somehow...

Can I just take a moment to share these awesome knitted beanies by JoansGarden at @coopartisans? These listings are for patterns, but the creator says they'll be happy to make a custom finished version of any of them upon request.

Flamingos by the Shore,

Dinosaurs in the Jungle

Bats in the Night Sky

She also has patterns for stranded beanies where the design is worked into main layer, like the Bigfoot Beanie, and for stand-alone knitted animals, like the Roly-Poly Pill Bug, or the Secretive Seahorse.
