A Fiber Arts Studio | Weaving & Knitting | Teacher & Purveyor
Well, I’m back to doing the things I do, I just haven’t been posting about them. The photo is a sample for a class I’ve developed and will be teaching at the Weavers Guild of Greater Cincinnati in the fall. I’ll let you all know when it’s scheduled. It is a symmetrical mixed warp scarf that I direct warped, right onto the rigid heddle loom. It’s quite the stash buster.
I knit up a quick hat from some great orange and black yarn I got at Silk Road Textiles. ( It’s a great new yarn and fabric store in town, and I will be teaching there beginning September 22)’. The yarn is Plymouth Encore and it’s a simple 2 x 2 ribbed hat that knit up really quickly. The hat is for Zach, my 4 year old nephew who currently lives in Broncos country, but wears his orange and black proudly. The hat is reluctantly modeled by my 10 year old son who is larger than a 4 year old . But the hat is very stretchy and will fit a large range of head sizes so it should fit Zach fine and he should be able to wear it for years to come. Now I have to finish the hat for Quinn, his baby brother.
