Handspun Pastel Skinny Scarf

Sat, 17 Oct 2009 09:25:54 -0400

$50.00
I bought the handspun pastel yarn at Taos Wool Festival a few years back. I held it with a pastel- toned rayon ribbon as I knit it. This is a grab-and-go scarf. Skinny enough to wrap around your neck and toss into a loose knot in the front or do the Oprah-tie(saw it on her show) or just let hang loose from under your coat collar.
Fibers are a super, super fine mohair/linen blend and and a fine merino blend. I augmented the fringe with a bit of fine pink rayon ribbon and chose a rib pattern for the scarf itself.
Measurements:
Length: 84"
width: 3"

Jewel-toned Hand-knit Shawl

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 16:10:16 -0400

$85.00
Love the upside-down trapezoid shape of this shawl. It's knit sideways for a fun vertical stripe accented by the ruffle. This one is a generous size for a person of mid-height. Measurements are 92 inches wide by 26 inches deep. The jewel tones will do dressy to jeans. I love to wear mine on the porch on a chilly night while enjoying wine and cheese with friends or early in the morning drinking coffee and reading the paper with Trinket. The fiber is a blend of wool and silk.

Handspun, hand-dyed Tuscany Collection churro yarn

Thu, 15 Oct 2009 12:28:45 -0400

$18.00
Tuscany is on my travel wishlist. I imagined the colors from the vineyards and olive groves when I dyed this group of yarns. The greens are from the olive trees and olives themselves, and the cabernet tones from the vineyards. Rust tones complement the group.

This churro handspun has the most texture of this group. You will receive a single ply skein, 96 yards, and 2 oz.

I imagine using several different fibers from this group in a fabulous texture-rich shawl. Check out the others, rambouillet and lincoln, and start designing...
