Crocheted Aran Afghan in Progress






I have always wanted to crochet an afghan. Recently, I found a pattern I love by Coats and Clark, and I am well on my way to finishing this gorgeous throw. I decided to color block the afghan with my favorite yarn, Cascade Eco-Wool, in shades of natural creams and grays. The completed project will be posted soon!

Spring Felt


























These are some felting experiments I did last week after I took a laminate felt class at Weaving Works with Faith Hagenhofer. She is an amazing, knowledgeable and energetic teacher who is so inspiring and talented. My scarf project I completed in class is the turquoise and orange scarf on silk.
The other three I made the next day at home with some fiber I have in my fiber stash. The one withe spots is nuno felted onto silk, the other two are 100% wool. On my next day off I will conduct some nuno felt experiments with some silk I dyed with onion skins and tea. I can't wait!
