Handwoven zippered pouch

I've been experimenting with making small pouches from my handwoven fabric. Here is my latest prototype using a piece of Saori woven fabric I wove last winter. More to come!

New business cards have arrived!

I finally got around to ordering business cards and I'm thrilled with the results. I used Brad Wallace Imaging for the design--he has designed all of my branding--and I'm never disappointed with the outcome.


New yarns from Huntingdon Yarn Mill (Pennsylvania)

I've ordered several "mystery" boxes of yarn from Huntingdon Yarn Mill before, so I decided to try a few more yarns from them this month. I went with several cotton blends and a few wool blends--all with slubs or add-ins for texture.


Monday weaving: Cotton blend, All Season Scarf


 I received new yarns from Huntingdon Yarn Mill (Pennsylvania) late last week and wove a scarf using three of the new yarns--all cotton blends. I wasn't thrilled with it on the loom, but the end result didn't disappoint.
