and now some cotton

cottons


two cotton skeins after their second dip. aiming for the wonderful midnight blue of the silk skein on the right.combined with kakishibu it will make  a nice warp for  winter weaving. maybe a crepe?
the silk is for an all silk warp in assorted blue values, some kakishibu and  sparse nubby white silk.

test

the stamping tests for the oiran scarf . think i'll be using the sakura, it is much crisper than the ume stencil. the good thing about sloppy tests is that they get much better when done properly :)

linen knit

was dipped in the indigo vat 8 times. could have gone for more, but i became impatient.
now it has to be blocked and perhaps cut( oh horror!!! )and shaped. stay tuned.
