Coastal...

Next weekend, Mr. SockPixie and I will be heading to Maine for a great weekend, just the 2 of us! I have been daydreaming about the coast, the beach, the sea, the seagulls so much that I created a collection of yarns inspired by the coast.
I have never seen Maine, so all my Coastal thoughts were memories of my vacations along the Normandy Coast in Deauville and Trouville.

Here is a lovely painting of Deauville follwed by my Tides Colorway.





I hope you enjoy the Coastal collection

Out of Africa

This week we are going to Africa. The book and movie Out of Africa was my inspiration, and somehow I felt that solids were the only possible choice to reflect the depth of the colors of Africa.Enjoy the Out of Africa Collection !

Enjoy the Lavender Collection.

Red, red everywhere!

This week all about red, the new red couch cover, and all the reds I have created over the last 2 years.
I looked back, and decided to bring back some special reds for a special encore, and of course called the collection the Red Collection.

Here is the one I called Red and that's it!



I ho[e you enjoy the red collection

Yarn, roving, and now fabric!

For the first time this week, I am offering my colorways in yarn, roving, and now fabric. I have to say that it was great fun to see the colorways come to life in the tie dyed fabrics.
I hope you will enjoy the boldness of the One Thousand and One Nights collection .

Handspun Sushi!

Yesterday evening was lovely, the air was soft and sweet, and after all these weeks of rain it was paradise. I took my spinning will to the front porch, asat on the steps and spun.

I chose 2 rovings (one merino/ tencel, the other alpaca) in similar colors, but one with a warm hue, and the other with a cold. The result after plying today makes me think of a sushi platter with salmon, ginger, wasabe and a little bit of rice!3 delicious skeins!



Now what to do with my sushi yarn apart from staring at it?
