At felting group today, member Christine Munro showed us these 2 wonderful garments she had made. The first (above) is a long sleeveless vest.
This one is more of a sleeveless overtop. It has paua buttons and features crocheted decorations.
Both these are for sale - if you're interested, contact me and I'll get Christine to talk to you.
The irrepressible Bek Pilley was also there, and showed off what she'd done to one of her long-tailed (for want of a better expression) hats - it's decorated with beads and stitching and looks magnificent.
I have posted before about Bek's hatmaking classes - well worth going to.
For the dyers, this is a piece of overdyed fabric that I've made to go in my major project this year. More photos as they come to hand.
For knitters, this is a simple but very attractive scarf I'm knitting. The idea is the team a plain colour stripe up with a wool that changes colours for the other stripe, creating this interesting look. Done in 1/1 rib with an uneven number of stitches, it creates a thick, compact scarf with no annoying loose ends to darn in afterwards.
Lastly, a gratuitous cute animal shot. Here's Frodo, suitably backlit with late afternoon sun, down by the ponds where I walk the dogs each day.
