The Birthday Shawl

Here's another Shawl. I call this one The Birthday Shawl because I got the yarn for my birthday. It's hard to see in the pictures, but there is a metallic gold thread running through the colored yarn. It's rayon and really comfy.

Lace Shawls

Recently I went to a Lace workshop w/ my local Weaver's Guild. When I came home I re-configured the Finnish Lace structure and made 2 shawls. Both are made w/ Tencel. The Red and Blue one has a nice iridescent quality to it.

Hand Painted Roving

More $20 Fleece. Painted Roving this time. It felted ever so slightly, which is making it a bit of a challenge to spin evenly. So I figure - So What?! I like the hand spun look! I'm thinking another vest. Maybe change the neckline a bit.

Square Loom

I made a square loom! Now to get the shawl done...

Cooler Dyed Vest

Here is the vest I made with the Cooler Dyed Fleece. The buttons are wood. I have more yarn so now I'm making a Triangle Shawl using that and some Madder Dyed and Walnut Dyed Mohair. I've a bit to go on that though...

Cooler Dying

More of the $20 Fleece. This time I cooler dyed it w/ Jaquard dyes. I absolutely love the color it came out!

Indigo Blue sweater

I have a bunch of roving from a blend of my Mohair and a $20 fleece I bought at SAFF last year. I took part of it already spun and dyed it with indigo. Then I made a sweater. As you can see the sleaves were a bit long - I guess I was unconsciously knitting for the body I wish I had... But it's an easy fix. It won 3rd place at the fair.
