Starting out today with a special treat. Meet Fragrant Cloud, aptly named, and a new addition to my collection ~
Almost there ~
and full blown ~
Then, a fond farewell to one of the Sunshower towels, now happily living in Big Bend country in southwest Texas ~

Returning to current work, the All That Glitters series of scarves is now finished. Washed today, and hanging as I write on the old wooden drying rack outside in the breeze. Ironing and fringe-trimming are all that’s left to be done before they’re ready for new homes. Vibrant, deep colors and interesting patterning give them a compelling presence. I’m showing more than one view of each, as the shifting colors in the warp cause the patterns to appear and disappear.

#2, woven with a fine hand-dyed gold silk noil ~
#3, woven with a deep rust tencel ~
Coming next, working in layers, long imagined.
Sunashower is right at home!
the caramel tencel weft is beautiful!
