(Threading lights through a wheel is harder than it looks!
Well, it's been a low production year for gifts knitted or otherwise, but here the few that I did
I knit these at the last minute for my niece who loves the bunnies, they are mitts that I spun and knit from my white angora then dipped in a dyepot of a leftover brew that contained cochineal, madder, and some indigo (from something else that had been overdyed in it). I am still working on spinning even yarn with my angora but I kind of like the bumps...
This habotai silk scarf from Dharma was dyed in indigo, then I dyed some primarily wool sock yarn in the same vat. I did an overcast stitche with the yarn then picked up and knit a lace border. I really like this but it went to Susanne. I'll do more...
This is Evelyn A Clark's shawl, "Ripple." I am a huge fan of Evelyn's, perhaps because one of her lace shawl patterns was one of the first I knit. This is done in Noro Silk Garden sock, and goes to Beth.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!
