wow. i really love your blog. i love the style of stuff you do. i LOVE that sweater with the crochet neckline. you take all the mediums i like to work in and do the cool things that SHOULD be done with them. i've seen ceramic painting done on old wine bottles before, but they were so cheesy i discounted the practice. until i saw your dishes. i love to crochet, but honestly you can only do so many hats and scarves. then is see how you incorporated it into that sweater. you INSPIRE me!!!
