By Hand Serial is a series of beautiful, thoughtfully created Lookbooks, authored by Andrea Hungerford, a maker with a deep love of travel.
Andrea and the By Hand Serial team produced over 15 volumes from 2016 to 2022, each centered around a different location and exploring the creatives within.
The By Hand Serial books are knitting-forward, but have a mixed-craft focus across each book, featuring knitting and sewing patterns and projects for a variety of handcrafts.
Each issue highlights regional designers, makers, shops, interesting locations and more, making them wonderful travel guides for crafters and creatives.
Finger Puppets with Natasha
Register for this FREE workshop HERE
Natasha is a Kiwi stay-at-home mum currently living in Minnesota. What makes her smile is knitting wee folk and photographing their big adventures in her backyard.
We will learn about Natasha's childhood in the countryside of New Zealand and how it inspired her to create Wee Folk Valley designs. She will also talk about the inspiration behind her Fingerprint Puppets and her big hopes for them.
During the workshop, Natasha will show some examples of how she has used embroidery in her own designs and why she encourages others to give it a go. She will also give ideas for how people could decorate their finger puppets using embroidery.
