Needlework and Wood Working Update - January, 2026

 Good morning,

Welcome to our Needlework and Wood Working Update featuring items we have completed since the last Update.  

Above is a Large Afghan Blanket featuring beautiful pink and turquoise raised flowers bordered by matching turquoise.  $185.  Only one available.  More information and images here. 

 This sweater was a special project for our daughter, Catherine, for Christmas.  It took longer than usual for a couple of reasons, mostly because I designed as I made it.  It's crocheted with a special gorgeous Lion Brand Yarn.  

 I have enough yarn to make a couple of items for the shop, too.  Above is a cloche hat.  $12.  Only one available.  More information and images here.

And, here's a matching scarf that is so very soft and comfortable.  It will be a favorite for years to come.  $40.  More information and images here.

Kjell has not been working with wood for a couple of months because he had cataract surgery and couldn't take the chance a wood chip or dust could get into his eyes.  He has been busy with his 3D Printer, though!  He made two of these chisel sharpers:  one for himself and one for a gift for our friend Bill who is so helpful for so many things we need done here.  All reports are that the sharpeners work perfectly.

Kjell has started wood projects again.  Some are partially made, others are still in the drawing stage on his computer.  

I also had cataract surgery that showed me down, but I was able to keep crocheting and knitting for the past couple of months.  Now that we've both recovered, we are up and running with new projects.

We sincerely appreciate your encouragement, likes, shares, favorites, pins, and purchases, too, from our little shop for the past fourteen, almost fifteen years:  EvensensProductions.Etsy.com.  Come take a look!

 All the very best,

Lois & Kjell
