With cooler days approaching, it’s the perfect time to wrap up in something cosy.
I’ve just refreshed my website (finally!) and it’s now up to date with plenty of cosy pieces to keep you warm on those crisp autumn mornings.

You’ll also find something new—hand dyed silk merino and tencel cowls, beautifully soft with a gentle drape.

Everything is available on my website or in the studio shop

I had a very busy day on one of my days off, dyeing 4 kilos of yarn. It was also raining all day...nothing worse than a wet dyeing day!
All the yarn is now on my website and in the studio shop.

Next stage of my tea towels. Now they are off the loom, I secured each edge with a zig zag stitch on my sewing machine, then cut apart and washed them. I knew there would be two that were extra long, but I think I did alright getting most of them the same length. Next stage is ironing and hemming.

Tea towels all woven. I ended up weaving 10 in all and a small sample piece to practice my hemming. All thats left to do is wash, iron and hem them. They feel lovely...the cotton boucle feels very squishy.
I had never woven from a kit before and found it really enjoyable. Of course I had to do my own designs too.
For anyone interested, Jane Stafford Textiles has a large choice of different kits for teatowels, scarves etc.

After 30+ years weaving, I have just woven my first tea towel and I love the colours. Only 8 more to go and they are all going to be different.

It's a bit of a grey, rainy day in Lawrence today, so nice to be winding a bright, cheery warp. In all my years of weaving I have never woven tea towels. I know a lot of weavers do, so I thought I would give it a go and do some for myself.
I loved this kit from Jane Stafford Textiles...enough on this cotton boucle warp for 9 tea towels. I'll keep you posted on my progress.

Had a big dyeing day and my shelves are now full of fresh hand-dyed 4ply and 8ply merino wool! So many gorgeous colours. Perfect for knitting or crochet projects.

A box of cotton gorgeousness arrived today. Even though I have been weaving for a long time, there is always so much to learn and sometimes you do get stuck in your own "groove', so I am doing the Jane Stafford Online Weaving School course. I decided to get all the cotton yarns for Season 2 and I can't wait to get stuck in!
Season 1 was pretty much the basics, but the amount of new techiques and new ways of doing things I learnt has been great. It has really given me a shot in the arm about weaving, and why I love it so much.
(Oh...and a new weaving shuttle and a couple of other yarns may have "accidently" been ordered too.)

I’ve just completed three new scarves — now available in my studio gallery and on the website. Each one is handwoven and one of a kind. Pop in to see them in person, or visit the online shop to explore the latest pieces.
