new sew

gorgeous crinkle silk from the barcelona time frame. a now defunct, as many other, fabric store which carried remnants of high end fabrics from italy. an opportunity to source gorgeousness for next to nothing.those were the days. the pattern is another simple japanese one. i understand front, back,cut. the rest google translate on mobile. one has to live dangerously.   (￣ω￣ )

not yet dry

ok, but do not tell me it's not a handsome color.when dry it will be a tad lighter but nothing serious.

this silk yarn is part of a warp, a simple  number just to highlight the color of the yarn.

the remaining color, still enough,  in the bath, is going to be turned into a lake pigment.need to check the process bcse it will be a first timer for me.
