Four projects

Okay, so here’s what I’m working on tonight:

Dyeing a few scarves and hanks of silk and cotton thread. What’s with the rocks in the cup? Well, the best way I’ve found to crush-dye the scarves is to put them between two cups, with the top one weighted to keep the scarf submerged.

Blocking the tiniest things ever. If all goes well, these will become earrings. Each star measures less than half an inch from point to point.

I just finished weaving this scarf (Lindsay) and am starting another one (Douglas Weathered).

And if I’m still conscious, I’ll try to crank out a few of these.

Treasure pouches/drawstring necklaces

None of these (except the treasure pouches) will be ready in time for the Cross Creek Ranch Arts Festival this weekend, but there’s a lot happening in March. More on that later!
