2020 - Huy T'seep Q'u

My grand-daughter and I forgot we had this up, it hasn't been updated since 2011! Yes, I am still knitting, and taking custom orders.

I've updated the blog with my current e-mail, dora.cowichan@gmail.com. If you checked this out recently, you'll also notice a change in the measurement requirements for sleeves on sweaters.  

I have a new logo that has been in use for a year now!

Thulamiyé is my traditional name, and my grand-daughter designed the hummingbird. 

I would like to say huy t'seep q'u (thank you all) to everyone who has purchased one of my hand made creations, this year, and over the years since finding me. I am still purchasing the wool raw and spinning the wool myself. 

I hope you and your family are keeping safe and well during this time.  

Here is an updated photo of me knitting.
