Namaste


The great thing about dyeing is that if you're rushed or distracted and don't end up with exactly the beautiful color you were going for -- you end up with a different beautiful color. Then you grab some more wool & dye the color you wanted in the first place, and you end up with twice as much stunningly beautiful wool. It's a low stress job. ;-)


One of my red dyepots took an unexpected swerve into fuchsia this week, resulting in a decidedly Om-like color. So I carded it up with some bright fuchsia, dark purple, and stunning gold bamboo and tencel, and decided to call it Namaste.



Think of it as Om's sophisticated older sister.
Get it here.

Phat Inspiration Photos


This month's Phat Fiber theme is A Midsummer Night's Dream.

I'm going to try a couple hand-dyed silk scarves in the shop.
One similar to the wrap in this photo:




And one similar to the flowing sleeves of Titania's dress in this photo:





My contribution to the box will be batts inspired by a vision in my head of Titania at midnight, standing in the moonlight in a light and dark blue silk dress, with moonbeams setting her pale skin aglow.
