Today I'm super excited to introduce you to a fun knit store called Dottie Q. I've been going nuts accessorizing with infinity scarves this winter, but when I found Dottie Q on Etsy I immediately had hearts in my eyes. They were so different! The braided scarves looked more like statement necklaces and I knew they'd work just as well during the summer over a jersey dress as in the winter over a peacoat. 

The mastermind behind the store is Dottie, and the idea was born a few years ago when she moved to a charming 90+ year old bungalow in St. Louis, Missouri. There her creativity went into overdrive and about a year ago she discovered she had a talent for working with fibers. It was basically love at first hook when she started crocheting, and last fall and winter she made more people than she could hope for feel cozy. 

What I really love about Dottie's store is that keeping her accessories eco-friendly is a high priority. She tries to use 100% organic cotton, sustainable vegan materials like hemp and bamboo, and upcycled materials as much as possible, and even mails them out in recycled envelopes! 

Dottie knits everything from infinity scarves, cozy cowls, scarf necklaces, boot cuffs, fingerless gloves, tech cozies and muffs. And what's even more impressive is that she's been doing this for about a year or so and she's already made it onto the Today Show! Her scarf necklaces were featured on "Bobbie's Buzz Cold Weather Must-Haves", and you can watch that here! So if you'd like to check out her amazing store, be sure to pop over and say hello here!

And here are some other knit picks from Dottie Q- keep in mind that these come in all sorts of different colors!
