Life is being difficult right now with my mind circling around the question how to stay a free-range chicken in a battery dominated world. Maybe I've become too accustomed to the good life?
Material worries can't stop me knitting new dresses and spidery sweaters. What did Steve Jobs say... 'Stay hungry and foolish.' In cashmere… that might just work for me. ♥ ♥ ♥

oh you look absolutely stunning here! but - sorry, i'm curious - are you facing any kind of exciting changes (moving to another place or anything)? loved your free-range chicken comparison :)
I feel the way you are now daily. Free range chickens are a rare breed indeed. Do continue knitting. It's creative and does wonders for the mind.xx
FA&oF - I'll definitely continue with the knitting. It's wonderful... and I can make my own clothes :)
Kazuko - I really don't know yet. It's more on a professional level. Chatty me will keep you updated (as much is diplomatically possible). X
2 beautiful shots any yes please do stay foolish. I love your 2 new pieces. Xxxx

I love the dress - so stunning, and knitting sounds like a good way to keep yourself busy.
I do hope everything sorts itself out soon for you.
I can't believe you knitted these. Actually, I CAN believe it! Gorgeous spidery knits on the sweater and the forestry ... And the Jobs quote was one of the ones that really sunk into me last week the day he passed. xx
wonderful creations.
I think I know exactly what you mean! Why don't I ever look this stylish when I go walking through woodlands? (Oh wait - I don't live near any woodlands...)
Fantastic creation. A free range life sounds interesting so long as it's financially sound too! The challenge is finding both

I feel your pain. I struggle with this a lot. Here's a glass of love from me to you. Wishing you saffron sunsets and happy smiles.
Love the dress btw. x

I do have a serious problem with staying hungry. Though staying foolish is a natural state of being for me. Love the two shots.
And keep up the knitting. I wish i could do that.
Really amazing photographs.
Xoxo
Beautiful photos once again, Sabine! I feel your frustration, that's why I've been MIA. But promise to make time for what makes you happy, ok? :) Miss you!
These photos are wonderful!
You should look at it from the other side: It is amazing that you can make your own clothes! They are unique and wonderful!
Feel for you, Sabine. It's a dog eat free range chicken world out there!
Like FA&oF said, I do feel that the need to create is so inherent in us: once our basic needs are met (food, clothing, shelter - in some cases, reproduction) the next thing is 'Right! What can I create?
It sounds like you need to focus on the basic few first, but that shouldn't stop you from knitting! Yesterday I met with a friend who I met streetshooting, a recent knitwear designer - I'd love to put her in touch with you. These designs are absolutely beautiful - I'll be doing a post soon with a similar look, using a Mark Fast dress over something lighter - really similar, uncanny.
Okay, I'll shut up now. I just missed not just your smiling face, but your lilting voice, and your perspective on life. These are beautiful photos, looking at you in the forest is giving me inspiration to go forth and write my novel!
big hug, good luck
jill xoxo
Magnificent piece of art your casemire creations and photos. Thankgoodness for "free range" people.
I am definitely one of them, yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
What a lovely setting and mood. I love the layers you wore here. I hope everything is ok with you! Have a great week! Keep on knitting! :)
That sweater looks incredible - you're very talented. xx
Running Free Range while 'hungry and foolish in cashmere' sounds highly inspiring, even if it's in the teeth of material concerns.
Love how illuminated you are in that first image.
"stay hungry and foolish" - i love that!
also, the lighting in these shots is really beautiful!
Love the cashmere sweater!
OK loving the "free range chicken" sentence.But I know exactly what you mean - I often wonder if perhaps living a much more simple life would be better for me? But then I love what I love (fashion, dinners out etc) It's a struggle sometimes on which road to take in this dilemma. Hope things are OK with you. Keep us updated! xo
P.S. Sometime I think I should move to a small town in middle America where you just work, spend time w/family and no one even knows about "fashion" how inexpensive would that life be? (-:
This is beyond perfect. Not only do I love your entire look, but the way that dress falls . . and the light. All in all you're created an incredible atmosphere here. As always :)
xx
Know exactly how you are feeling right now! x
These are amazing! I can barely manage a knit-in-the-round raglan.
Sabine, I want tshirt that says Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish. I think that maybe my favorite sayings right now. RIP Steve Jobs
His Stanford grad. speech so inspirational. He also says to never settle, have courage to follow your intuition. I know, I know, easier said than done.
Keep clucking! I think success is not becoming famous or rich. Success is having courage to do what you love doing (not my idea, read it somewhere)
LOVE the dress! You're so talented.
