Despite a murky day I managed to get out in the ga Despite a murky day I managed to get out in the garden. Last year I watched the garden but didn't plant much, beyond working in the veg garden. I wondered if there were any bulbs or plants hidden, waiting for the right time but nothing appeared. It looks like I've been boring and lazy but I prefer to think of it as patient and considering. I planted bulbs last Autumn, and they are started to pop up in places now, as are the roses I struggled to put in. I'm not sure they will take and maybe they would be better in pots, but I'll give it a go. Hopefully I'll be rewarded at some point.
I love making scarves like this with lots of colo I love making scarves like this with lots of colour and texture. I weave intuitively and combine yarns as the mood takes me, so its always a surprise when I take it off the loom! I use different types of yarn in my weaving, including hand-dyed, naturally dyed, commercial and handspun on my Ashford traditional spinning wheel, and I choose yarn from small flocks where I know the sheep are well cared for. There are a huge range of variations and I'm always happy to chat about alternatives, including sourcing vegan fibres. If you don't see the scarf of your dreams, please ask me and I can make something special just for you. (Prices for commissioned pieces from £90).

Happy new year, anyway. :) I've been binding some of my prints from last year into a book so I can see my progress and tidy my heap of papers. With that done, it's time to start building a new pile!
