Seaweed scarves are woven, knotted, washed, dried and pressed. Ready to go!So when I am not in Fiber Co I dye, work on surface design. Today is marbling silk. I mordanted the scarves, set up a new marble bath-- the colors float pretty nicely in this warm-ish weather. I hope to have 8 ready to take to the studio tomorrow. All colorful, washed, dried. And I have lovely blue fingers! Yes, I have gloves. In the box.
I'm using some patterns I saw in the jasmine blossoms and grapevines. Really a treat to have so many plants for inspiration. I finished up a dozen- tried to get a good range in color. I didn't get to the greens, browns, golds and pinks yet. But the next set of scarves are mordanted and ready to go.
Just to keep with stating the obvious, I am no photographer!
