Artist Feature - LAZY CAT


Lazy Cat is comprised of three good friends who met in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Kelly, Allison, and Stasia began their venture by making gifts for family and friends. Crocheting, which each had learned from their grandmothers, is Lazy Cat's specialty. The group works with not only yarn and fiber, but fine-gauge wire as well. They focus on wire-woven jewelry, scarves, hats, baby and pet items.

Oh, how I envy those who can sew, knit and crochet! Being a jeweler myself, I especially appreciate wire crochet. The piece featured above is titled, "Broadway" and is a princess length necklace which was created using black wire, carnelian gemstones, and multicolored glass beads. I love how the black wire really adds drama and contrast to the piece.

Broadway is available in their Etsy shop (http://lazycat.etsy.com/) for $55 USD.
