Silk Hankie Batt

I've been playing with my drum carder today and wanted to make something a bit different, so i started with some merino in different colors and then i added a whole silk hankie all the way through and very slowly , its so sticky but one hankie goes such a long way that i didnt realise how far you can pull them out. I'll definitely use them again. Its given a really nice shine to this batt .  I've also listed it on Etsy.

Gotland Fleece

I just had my order of Gotland Fleece and Romny arrive so had to dye a bit of the Gotland to see how it came out. I'm pretty happy with it although i'm not sure what to do with yet. I might try to spin some up on the spindle and see how it comes out.

CARDING,CARDING AND MORE CARDING

Happy New Year Everyone, I'm looking forward to a spectacular 2009 of Felting , Dying , Carding & Sharing.

I am having so much fun with my new carder, i was asked to make a kit up with small amounts of colors, so i've had 3 days of dying and carding and now i cant stop lol . At the moment i'm just using 3 primary colors in the landscape dyes and just about to order a whole range of dyes so will be able to dye up a storm.
