Avalanche Looms: ashes, ashes

http://avalanchelooms.blogspot.com/2014/12/ashes-ashes.html

Friday, December 19, 2014. It's icy here, so I dumped the whole can full of wood ashes on my paths and the driveway, and then put it to the test. I didn't fall down and break my crown. I like my new, highly visible, lime-yellow down jacket. Happy winter solstice, and remember the ones who've left us. I light a candle for them in a. Mason jar, when the sun goes down, and put it in the frozen fern bed beside the sauna. Avalanche Looms / Susan Johnson. Needles all dangling down…what a funny image! I wove it...

Avalanche Looms: march wind

http://avalanchelooms.blogspot.com/2015/03/march-wind.html

Saturday, March 7, 2015. Today winds are blowing out of the South. Soon maple sap will be dripping in the woods, syrup boiling in sugar houses, and trout season. It will still snow, a spring blizzard or two. The cold has been extraordinary this year, but it's a dry cold. I know I'll miss it. Item: In case you haven't seen it, Vibeke, the vivacious Norwegian knitter, tea and poetry lover who writes A Butterfly in My Hair. Avalanche Looms / Susan Johnson. Lovely spring green in the scarf! I opened your blo...

Avalanche Looms: potholding

http://avalanchelooms.blogspot.com/2015/01/potholding.html

Thursday, January 8, 2015. I'm amazed to read about the present, sweltering heat in the southern hemisphere, Australia, for instance, while staring into the teeth of this "Alberta Clipper" coming down from, well, the finger points at Alberta. Thanks, Canada. Dramatic, but largely an illusion. So I am weaving potholders, a throwback to simpler times, days when I began weaving, a. Project of cutting rags and chaining them together, to weave into useful, and cheerful kitchen things. We can create what we ca...

Knit in worsted twist. It’s raining today so I thought I’d re-visit some sunny photos from last month. I’m searching for a cardigan pattern for my daughter. Maybe a mini manu. Some moments in my studio last week. Belated birthday socks for my recently turned 4 yr old. Wrap her in hugs and hand knits (and her little brother too, if he would let me). Garter stitch scarf using Blue Sky Metalico. Strands of Silver and Opal held together. Scarves left in my shop. Are now on sale! New extra long hand knit socks.

roe: Monday

Thursday, November 18, 2010. November 19, 2010 at 1:07 AM. I especially love the first photo.its texture and soft colouring. Allow me one photo geek question: Did you shoot it with a macro lens? Is that how you got so close with such a narrow area in focus? November 19, 2010 at 6:09 PM. Wow, beautiful color, pattern and texture. November 19, 2010 at 6:46 PM. Very lovely shots Rileyso tactile, makes me feel Peru. November 19, 2010 at 8:32 PM. I love the patterns! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
