Anyway, yesterday on Instagram (I'm @antiquariabailey) I posted a video of me knitting. And realized just how many other calligraphers are knitters or making enthusiasts. I gave me the final nudge to film myself and see if I could possibly tie all of my scattered interests together. I'm not sure that I succeeded at all but hey, at least I tried ;)
I hope you enjoy! Please feel free to comment or email or ping me on IG with questions for the show or things that you'd like to see. bailey(at)shopantiquaria(dot)com
