Handworks 2017

The Marlborough Creative Fibre Exhibition and Scarf Expo are now in full swing and both are doing well - one at each end of the Art Society's Yealands Gallery. The Exhibition is in the larger room and scarves in the smaller but one merges into the other. 
Here are my entries in the Exhibition.

This wrap uses two different weights of alpaca to give a random texture effect though it is actually woven in plain weave.

Table runner in cotton and linen with just a smidgen of wool boucle for texture.

Sometimes huck lace in fine alpaca and silk seems like my signature statement. See previous post.

Linen is not far off being my favourite yarn of all time. Another random "non-pattern" (unusual for me) - this time I made a cover for a visual diary and added a tatted motif and a bookmark.

 

I have several scarves in the expo as well. Here is one of the first sales on opening night - purchased by the mayor! What good taste!

I am delighted to report that both wraps and and the runner are also sold. Yay! That means I can start planning to make some more.
