Fiber Arts Fridays







I started carding up some rolags of some old forgotten fiber I had gotten for felting. Not the best stuff to use-lots of neps and noils. So I added a lot of cut up commercial fun fur yarns-made a big mess-but ended up looking pretty good. I actually got them plied, washed, dried and they're still hanging over my kitchen sink. I might actually try to knit something with them-not sure what-maybe a crazy scarf-we'll see when the mood strikes.

    Ooh, pretty colors! I'm using some of handspun you gave me with the metallic thread mixed in to finish off some of the ATCs I'm working on for my Indiana adventure.
    Cheers,
    Carolyn
