Handmade by Babette

Thank you for visiting my page of weavings and knits called Handmade by Babette.  I'm a writer/teacher/radio show host by day, a weaver/dyer of yarn/spinner of yarn/jewelry maker by night.

 Everything you see here is hand knit or woven by me in Southern California using the best yarns and materials I can find. Many are imported from Germany, a few from India and Japan, and some are USA spun.

These are handmade items, so not standard as you might find with machine-made knits and weavings.  Everything listed here is gift-quality.  Should whomever you gift an item to not be happy, I will accept exchanges within 14 days, as long as the item hasn't been worn.  Shipping & delivery confirmation to US addresses is included in the price.  (International guests, please send me your city/country/code and I'll send you the mailing cost.) Insurance is extra.

I've been asked if I consider bartering. I will.  I'm currently looking for a working spinning wheel and am interested in fine yarn and roving, and vintage beads.

If you'd like to see more, please visit my shop on Etsy. It's called LowTideDesigns. Click here.  Email me at penonfire@earthlink.net to make sure an item is still available or visit Etsy.  I also do custom orders.

Thanks for looking!
