Katelyn Dunn, fiber artist, will be teaching 'Birth of Art Yarn', 'Triangle Loom Weaving', 'Felted Clutch', and 'Felted Bauble Earrings'.
Yesterday was a great day to stay inside and spin recycled fabric into rag yarn! Rag yarn can be used to make so many different things like rag rugs, crocheted baskets and bowls, jewelry, pillows, scarves, and so much more!
This is a crocheted necklace made from the rag yarn. Bright, colorful and so in style!! This one is SOLD, but I am busy making more! No two are alike so you won't meet yourself coming and going!
Yesterday was sooooo hot, it was also a good day to stay inside and practice microwave dyeing with food color and vinegar. The Blueface Leicester wool roving is ready for felting or spinning. So soft! Some will be spun into art yarn, and I will wet felt some too.
Today is another hot and humid day, and a great day to stay inside and create something beautiful!
Perhaps I will finish my first in the series of 'Every Scrap Counts' designs. It's almost done and won't take very long to finish.
Here is what it looks like right now. It will be put on canvas and become a wall hanging. I used all recycled 'scraps' from my ever growing stash of fabric, silk, wool, yarn, ribbons, lace, vintage trims & baubles. I also used fabric 'confetti' and found that it really makes a statement and gives such a wonderful texture to the design.
Stay cool and have a wonderful, creative day!
