Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts: slowcolor pastels
http://pocketmeadowfarm.blogspot.com/2012/03/slowcolor-pastels.html
Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts. Monday, March 5, 2012. Working with a new fiber blend of wool and mohair roving. It spins up to a nice, fat, lofty worsted or bulky single ply. It's also slightly easier to dye, as it's not so prone to felting. 8 oz, about 400 yards. Nice handiwork, well done. March 20, 2012 at 3:37 AM. I love the colors! April 12, 2012 at 5:38 PM.

Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts: and another
http://pocketmeadowfarm.blogspot.com/2011/06/and-another.html
Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts. Wednesday, June 1, 2011. These yarns are created by layering the dyes in a slow, meticulous succession of intensities and colors. With my current setup, I can only do about 4000 to 6000 yards of laceweight at a time, so the dyelots are relatively small. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). West Virginia, United States.

Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts: last harvest
http://pocketmeadowfarm.blogspot.com/2010/11/last-harvest.html
Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts. Thursday, November 4, 2010. We've had one frost already, but I managed to salvage two of these boxes of tomatoes, peppers and eggplant and a few watermelons. It's about seventy pounds of produce. There were literally hundreds of green tomatoes and unripe peppers that I had to leave out. A pity, but they'll contribute to a good compost pile! Loved the blog, it is beautifully written. Im a regular reader. adoreable dog. Http:/ davidhatton1987.blogspot.com/. 12/30 - 01/06 (1).

Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts. Friday, January 20, 2012. Who doesn't love a rainbow? Two available on etsy. This one is just a tiny bit felted, so I'm going to spin it up myself.

Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts: the 1500 varieties of heaven
http://pocketmeadowfarm.blogspot.com/2011/05/1500-varieties-of-heaven.html
Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts. Monday, May 23, 2011. The 1500 varieties of heaven. I had a delightful trip over to Exline Iris Gardens. Here in Berkeley Springs today. The Exline's farm consists of two gorgeous, colorful acres of bearded iris — and they're all in bloom right now. The owner, Jim Exline, explained to me that he has been in this business for 38 years, and has about 1500 varieties of iris growing on his property. He sells these on his website. But I think it's much. View my complete profile.

Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts: color suites
http://pocketmeadowfarm.blogspot.com/2011/12/color-suites.html
Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts. Thursday, December 1, 2011. The yarns/roving were a mix of single and multi ply wool, superwash wool, loop, boucle and brushed mohair, wool/mohair/silk blend and Corriedale wool roving. I handpainted everything together at one time; the mohairs tended to take color a lot lighter than the wools, so they may get more intensity in their dye mixes in the future. A couple bits of inspiration—. December 5, 2011 at 8:01 PM. This is so beautiful! You really have an eye for colours!

Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts: slowcolor
http://pocketmeadowfarm.blogspot.com/2012/01/slowcolor.html
Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts. Saturday, January 7, 2012. This is the first slow-color fiber I dyed back in December. You can't really see the long color change effect in the skein, however, in the ball it's a little more evident. The true test will be when it's knit up. In this case, I elected to split the fiber lengthwise before spinning and I ended up with 200 grams/335 yards of a bulky thick/thin yarn. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts: preview
http://pocketmeadowfarm.blogspot.com/2011/07/preview.html
Pocket Meadow Farm Fiber Arts. Thursday, July 7, 2011. Here's a swatch or two of my multi-yarn shawls on the needles. You can't see it on this first one, but there is a silver metallic strand running through parts of this one. I'll add a beaded section next, using silver-lined clear beads and more metallic yarns, then resume with the matte textures. Same stitch pattern. You can see that there are quite number of ends to weave in. Boundless Technologies (Pvt) Ltd. September 26, 2011 at 5:03 AM. 06/06 - 06...
