Annettes garn
Hann ju med att fira Annette också, hon fyllde ju 40 år och fick ett handspunnet garn, spunnet direkt från lockarna av fåret Jewel som jag hade färgat.
Had time to celebrate Annette's 40th birthday. I gave her handspun yarn, spun directly from the handdyed locks of the sheep Jewel.

Tovade blommor
Tovade blommor för spaden till the American Swedish Institute. Man hade beställt 5 spadar i olika medier till dagen då man tog första spadtaget för den nya byggnaden. Tovad, glas, luffarslöjd, halm och trä var materialen vi konstnärer jobbade med.
Felted flowers for the shovel that the American Swedish Institute commissioned for the ground breaking day. They ordered 5 different shovels in different materials and techniques that has been taught at the institute. Felted, glass, metal wire, straw, and wood were the chosen materials for the different artist.

Polka-Dotted Double Knitted Scarf
Ett annat mönster jag har skapat. Dubbelstickning har många möjligheter när det gäller kreativa mönster. Tar lite mer tid att sticka, men är värt besväret. Det mångfärgade garnet har jag spunnit från en av mina egen-färgade flätor.
Another pattern that I designed. Double knitting creates many possibilities when creating patterns. Take a little longer to knit, but well worth the trouble. The verigated yarn is handspun from one of my dyed rovings.

Surrounded by Waves Cowl
Här är en bild på en "Cowl" som jag har designat. Jag kallar den Surrounded by Waves, omgiven av vågor. Hanspunnet garn från en handfärgad fläta.

Mycket har hänt sedan senaste bloggen. Nu i helgen var det Shepherd's Harvest, ull och får fest i Lake Elmo. Jag hade ett bås med Renee och John, ull i alla former och vackra sländor kunde man köpa i vårt bås. Det var kul och intensivt med mycket visning och utlärning av spinning. Sålde en hel del ull också.
A lot has happend since last time I blogged. Last weekend was Shepherd's Harvest, sheep and wool festival at Lake Elmo fairgrounds. I shared a booth with Renee and John, selling wool in many shapes and forms and John's beautiful spindles. Fun and intensive weekend with demonstrating and teaching spinning. Managed to sell a fair amount of wool as well.
