HAHA attempt at Navajo Plying.


I like new challenges - I tried my hand a Navajo plying with some hand - dyed Brown Sheep Co. Roving. I think it looks better in this picture than in person. I really enjoyed learning but wow did I make a lot of booboos. I am think this will be knit and then made into a pillow cover (felted) so you can't see the boo boos! By the end I think I did get the hang of it. Right now I'm working on spinning a yarn of my own creation (yeah - not really) that is two shades of purple and yellow - Johnny Jump ups were the spring inspiration. Can't wait. Also learned to spin silk - oh am I hooked. Next it's Bamboo - wait to you all see this stuff - it's incredible.
