Abducted by wool

Dear Miss, I couldn't write my blog because I was abducted by a strong spinning wheel, a boxfull of dastardly dyes and some fiendish fleeces...

Natural dyes: logwood, cochineal, turmeric in Merino hand-spun and Bowmont fleece.

Bowmont heavenly carded and blended clouds

Merino, Mediterraneo colourway, Navajo plyed to keep transitions

The naturals

fleece - Shetland shearling

Some batts from a previously carded Shetland

Nasty finding

Shetland spun

Silk, dyed in Leaves colourway and single spun (later to be Navajo plyed)

...and I have also been knitting.
