I have been getting ready for the Block Street Art Sale this year and am busily weaving up some rugs for the event. Mirabel has been helping me with the final handwork such as tying knots. Here she is helping and there is a shot of the rug without her. Here are several of the new ones for the sale. I am putting in my wool runners, too hoping someone will just have to take one home...
Once upon a time there was a woman who was totally in love with fiber. She knit, she spun, she wove, she crocheted and she dreamt of fiber things, too.I love fiber, color and texture and all things handmade. In addition to weaving the looper rugs I knit wool hats and shawls and continue to follow my tapestry weaving path.
