Many months ago I strolled into a new nearby knitting store called Noe Knit. I had one of those freaky "where are they now?" moments when I saw my college house-mate's book Last Minute Knitted Gifts on the shelf. Wow, there was Joelle Hoverson! She's no longer the artist I knew, or the Martha Stewart employee I'd heard about, now she's a published knitter and a store owner. It's funny but I had wandered by her store Purl in Soho when I was in New York the summer I was pregnant, but of course didn't know it was hers. I clearly remember the darling itty bitty sweaters strung across the door each with an intarsia letter spelling P-U-R-L. I keep coming across many links to her book, store and new blog on the knitting and craft blogs I read. Today I toured her e-store. What an adorable website curated with impeccable taste - yes, this is defiantly the Joelle I remember. I couldn't help myself, I bought one of the sweet small fabric bundles. I hope to sew some into the wee wonderful kitty, bunny, and bear patterns. There's a good list of links to browse too.
