Yarn Along..





Rain on the roof.
Gray.
Twinkle lights and coffee.
Fire crackling.
Naturally dyed yarn in a dreamy apricot.

Reading Sheila Hicks.
I sooo need a copy of this book.

Out of Hand..



Many thanks to those who stopped by last
night to say hello during the 
benefit gala at the Society for Contemporary Craft.


The event was AMAZING and I was
truly honored to be a part of it.


My demonstration station was weaving 
with reclaimed fiber on the Saori loom..

..along with artisans creating
handmade paper, wood turning, and metal enamel activities.


The view from the loom:

A beautiful insulation from Jenny Soracco, the current 
Studio Education Apprentice at the 
Society for Contemporary Craft.

She also has beautiful jewelry available in her Etsy Shop.

Next stop.. 
unload the car and get the cowl off the loom!

Yarn Along...



Chipping away at the "Terrain" scarf by Janina Kallio.
Loving and craving this brilliant green yarn.
naturally dyed with Queen Anne's Lace and Indigo that I took from the shop : |

Reading a vintage copy of "Beard on Bread" that 
was found at a local antique shop.  Snagged
a vintage book on woven garment construction
 and those cute miniature weaving shuttles as well.

It is an icy, 
sloppy, 
knee deep slushy, 
with more snow on top,
grey,
did I mention grey, 
kinda day.

Guild meeting was cancelled due to the poor weather, so time 
to photograph some yarn for the shop..
and knit.

..  dreaming of green..

Happy Wednesday
