  Baa Bonny Belle — Authority: 123
  The top picture is of an over-dyed sock yarn, that is 75% wool/25% nylon. The colors, though not 100% accurate, came out very fall-like with browns, tans, rusts, and deep purples. Could be an interesting shawl/scarf since there is 462 yards. Not sure about socks. The second picture is some pink corriedale (2 oz. ...

Of course, I should have been going to the gym, but – mmm, slippery footpaths, dangerous for a little old lady like me. [Stop laughing at the back, there!] Unlike Wil, I haven’t nuked ...

• Hand Dyed Silk Scarf

  
  The Weaving Studio — Authority: 123
