Handdyed Merino Silk Mix

Silk Merino Mix, dyed with Ashford Colour. Soon more......

Leave Shawl

My latest projekt. I dyed three shades of colour, cherry ornage and a mix of yellow and pink.

The yarn is single spun wool. Now I have to knit leaves in all sizes, when enough, all the gapes will be filled in with black wool, still a lot to do.

But it will look great when its done.

About the Workshops

It will be single workshops, that I can spend intensive time with you and teach you how to spin and more.
You don't need to have your own wheel, everything will be provided from me including drinks and food.
The Workshop will run on a Friday afternoon from 1.00pm till 5.00 pm, at my Home in Worcester.
I will show you main techniques to spin and design and create your own wool.

If you want to use your own spinning wheel, that's fine.
Feel free to e-mail me for further Questions and details to arrange a Day. Klick into my profile, there is the the e-mail link of mine.
Blessings Susanne

The flyer system is the same as on all Kromski wheels.

Josefine Shawl

I've dyed the fleece first than spun it, for plying I used Merino Natural, the combination of a coloured and a natural fibre makes a lovely Wool.

You start with 3 stitches than you decrease till it is big enough, very easy to knight.

Dyed Hanks

Sometimes I have to dye, I use Ahsford Dyes, for a good result.

Than I decide what i can make out of it, see the Wool and Sample of Knitting from the middel Hank, looks nice.
