Let's talk a minute about the "I want" reflex. We all have it. That moment when you just can't do without something and your impulse by overrides nearly all common sense. Some are more susceptible to it than others and I'm one of those. In fact, I often use this blog to curve those desires before they make me completely broke.
Today's shop inspired my "I want" reflex so intensely that I just can't seem to banish it, and I've returned to Third Eye Artisans' shop repeatedly since discovering it a my temptation grows and grows.
Third Eye Artisans is a shop filled with beautiful crocheted goodies that are gorgeous in both color and style. They offer everything from cowls, scarves, shawls and hats to baby blankets, afghans and even bookmarks and Julie, the artist behind these creations, has an absolutely wonderful eye for color and style.
Julie is one of those people that has a true passion for yarn and loves to experiment and the results are the incorporation of that love and passion into every single item she makes.
I'm sure that while browsing through her shop you're going find something you simply can't live without or will make the perfect gift for that special someone you're shopping for, so be sure to stop by!

I can totally see why you've got the I Want reflex - gorgeous things! : )
That shawl is amazing! It reminds me of a Cecelia de Bucourt- her items are stunning and so is this one. Found you on SITS, have a fab weekend!
I love the colors in that shawl...i am having trouble finding the shop manually though, i can't click through for some reason and third eye artisan is not coming up anywhere...anyway i wanted to say about the "iwant" reaction..i try to give my self a 2 week rule on things like this, big purchases..of course there are are those times you know it will be gone if you don't get it, but on Etsy alot of artists will recreate something for you if its gone so its a good way to help that urge, at least for me!
What a beautiful shawl!
