In the last couple of days, I have sewn more of the random piecing bits together.
Those bright and happy colors soothe my soul and help me to find peace within myself. So it is a good thing!
I have also been doing more spinning fiber into yarn. (If only it were "straw into gold.") My bobbin in filling up nicely.
In fact, I wove up all of the rolags that I prepared and showed in the last post. So I needed to make more of them. It occurred to me that I had more silk fiber somewhere. If only I could find it!
I started to look for it and didn't get as deep into the search as I expected. Why? Because it was right there waiting for me.
I pulled all of it out of the plastic bags it was shipped in to show you.
It isn't all that pretty wadded up like that, but I knew it would be so nice blended with the bamboo fibers and made into more rolags. This time I also added in some white "faux angora" - it is a super soft nylon fiber that spins nicely.
I pulled out the blending board and started playing with fiber. Fun fun FUN! Before too long I had made these rolags for my next time at the spinning wheel.
I hope you can see how shiny these are. I love the wide variety of colors in this batch of rolags. I will have lots of fun spinning them into yarn for more weaving.
Until Next Time,
Stay Creative

Luscious spun yarn, and as always, a stunning display of colors!
PS...meant to say the rolags show a lot of shine. And their colors are beyond stunning!
Oh what pretty eye candy. Love all the luscious colors.
Oooh - more pretty colors - in the blocks and the SHINY rolags - ;))
Love that you are creating with beautiful colours!
All of the colors on this post made my mouth water...LOL! So cheerful and fun. I know what you mean about being off and on with creativity. I have been so "off" lately that I recently read four books five days. So NOT what I want to be doing. Maybe it has been the heat or maybe the pandemic is finally getting to me.
