What’s Doin’?

I can’t keep my hands off my loom. I just love all the possible patterns I can manifest, it seems endless!

Since I posted last, I have completed a few more pieces. There are lots of gratuitous close ups for your viewing pleasure!

There were a few pieces done on the silk warp from Nicole. First I did the wollmeise shawl for Nicole:DSC05735 DSC05734 DSC05733 DSC05732 DSC05731 DSC05730

then there was a cream, natural, with rusty accents and beige-y goodness, , handspun merino and handspun bamboo.

Then I shifted the warp threads in the reed to create some open space and did another white/natural piece with bits of purple handspun and supercoil thrown in for fun!

The last piece from the silk warp was smaller, so it became a cowl, in handspun fuchsia and black. Really interesting texture! I love the final fabric I created.

I will have the Bunny take some photos tomorrow, I forgot to shoot this one today!
Stay tuned!!

What’s Shaking at Nangellini

 

Been at the hat game again between other endeavors. I am also weaving a shawl for Nicole, of No Two Snowflakes fame. She supplied some gorgeous yarn for me to weave, Saori style, and it has been so much fun! I love it.  I’ll post some photos when it’s complete and wet finished.

Below are recent hats.
