Beth Kamienski Knits for Babes and Brides in Stitches


A knitter who has recently expanded her avocation into vocation, Beth Kamienski creates handknit lingerie and baby goods under the playful business name Babes in Stitches. “I'm just getting going with this endeavor of mine,” she says.

She’s obviously not new to knitting, however, as her well-crafted and sometimes surprising original creations attest.

This will be her first LoLa art crawl, and she’ll be joining other artists at the vintage shop E’s Emporium, 3911 Minnehaha Avenue. 

What media do you work in?

Vintage fashion, pin-ups, knitting traditions

What do you like about LoLa/why did you join?
I was encouraged by Ella, the proprietor of E's Emporium. I really love the Longfellow community and am excited to be a part of the crawl with talented artists from my neighborhood!
