Crafts Fair


Ever wonder what celeb friends cough up for little Apple's, Miller Alasdhair James's and, God forbid, Phinnaeus's and Hazel's baby shower? And you thought you had it rough coming up with a unique baby gift.

Straight from the hands of New Zealand's grandmas comes a line of organic heirloom knits, Shescrafty. A bevy of Hollywood types are fans, which tempers the almost overwhelming goodness of the line with a little glitz. A collective of hand knitters create the unique garments based on the designs of Hadley Fierlinger, an American designer living in Wellington.

Everything is made with yarn from small New Zealand farms that are noted for producing fine merino wool. This prized yarn is certified organic Bio Grow -- translated: it's chemical and dye-free making it ideal for baby's sensitive skin. Like cashmere, the merino fibers lend great warmth without weight -- yet they're less likely to pill than any other wool. And they're insanely soft to boot. Shescrafty's sweaters, booties and blankets make perfect gifts, as does the newest addition -- a hand knit teddy named Lily Bear, perfect for tiny hands and available wearing a pink or blue sweater. They will even lovingly whip up custom designs that you have in mind.

While the whimsical Pixie Cap, sweet Mary Jane Booty Set, and Hooded Cardigan (a favorite of Sarah Jessica Parker) are being flaunted by some serious offspring, don't let Shescrafty's popularity with the celeb set fool you -- this baby wear is designed to be loved for a lifetime.
