Welcome to Fiber Arts Friday! Another week has passed which means I have lots of Fiber Arts Fun to share. This week I've been on a weaving kick. Actually the last few weeks have been productive on my small loom. My large loom is still sulking in the corner but the cotton yarn on it just isn't calling out to me. Instead I've been coming up with some new creations for the upcoming Holiday shows.
I've created a woven cowl using a mixture of my handspun yarn.
I've also created a couple of scarves using a variety of yarns. The Purple scarf with the yellow and turquoise stripes is sock yarn with stripes of handspun while the black scarf is my millspun Alpaca with a couple stripes of Metallic Rayon. It's been nice working with different yarns and textures.
My knitting and spinning has been put on the back burner so that the loom and I can create items to sell plus we are really getting along right now. Now share your adventures in Fiber Arts!

Ooooh, I love seeing your weaving, it looks so gorgeous. I really want a loom now!
ReplyDeleteYour weaving is fantastic! I love your use of colours!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love your cowl. Great colors and your weaving is looking really nice. Happy Fiber Arts Friday.
ReplyDeleteI like your scarves-but especially that moebius cowl-I still haven't mastered that technique.
ReplyDeleteI've not seen anything woven like your black scarf before. That's really pretty!
ReplyDeleteAmazingg. Lovely. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI love your weaving, they are beautiful! I want to learn!!
ReplyDeleteWOW. I don't really have any words for that -- gorgeous doesn't quite seem to do them justice. I'd backburner knitting too if I could make stuff that looked like that. Carry on! And happy weekend!
ReplyDeletewow, I'm usually bored with black/grey items but I LOVE that scarf! Great contrast and texture. LOVE!
ReplyDeleteLove the cowl. All of my favorite colorways are there. I think it's the ultimate experience to make something from your own handspun.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have a great weekend ahead. Enjoy!
That black scarf is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI just love your weaving! One of these days, when I have more free time! LOL
ReplyDeleteThe (mostly) red weaving really caught my eye. It reminds me a lot of my husband's family tartan. Thanks for sharing your pictures, now I have an idea brewing...
ReplyDeleteLovely weaving! That black scarf is too fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI still haven't gotten my Cricket put together... I really wish you lived closer, I could use a weaving lesson! =)
ReplyDeleteI love your woven scarves; when you and loom are getting along, the results are really fabulous.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that also the creative way of it - we go in spurts with a particular discipline or technique? I find one inspires others. :)
Really beautiful weaving! Everytime I see your weaving posts, I am inspired to start looking for a loom of my own! Best wishes!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing your beautiful weaving! The only problem is it makes me want to go out and buy a loom of my own!
ReplyDeleteLove the blue with turquoise and yellow, such great colour combos
ReplyDeleteI love the cowl. Very fall-y. :)
ReplyDeleteLove your weaving!
ReplyDeleteI just love your weaving. You have such an eye for color combinations!
ReplyDeleteI love the purple/yellow/turquoise color mix!
ReplyDeleteOMG! They are beautiful....I was looking at all the woven things yesterday at Rhinebeck and decided I needed something, but only one thing really called out to me, but I hesitated on it...maybe we could talk???
ReplyDeleteI forgot to come in and check until today! I love your weaving projects. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to invite you to join me at the Clever Chicks Blog Hop this week! http://www.the-chicken-chick.com/2012/11/clever-chicks-blog-hop-8-and-rural.html
