I am slowly overcoming jet lag and a fierce head cold - the combination of which was a tad unsettling for a while. As we are in Scotland this time around mainly for Barry's exhibition, we have spent a fair bit of time doing things like re-measuring walls and tables, finding timbers to cut, rocks to use as props and so on. We have had some lovely adventures as we head off trying to find things.
This afternoon/evening we were lucky enough to do something different - and attended a wonderful two hour workshop with the folk from Gongcrafts, who live in a village nearby. It was all about naturally dying wool and we had a fabulous fun time.
Dying with reeds. Stunning results and oh so happy!!
What fun it was to play and learn, discover and investigate, and take some beautiful yarn home. Thank you.
what a fantastic color ... blue and gray and green all at once
ReplyDeleteand I must ask as it is not familiar ... what is Biblio? ... no wait, let me see if you have written about it before now ... and yes, here 'tis https://paperponderings.blogspot.com/2020/02/bibliomancy.html ... how did I ever not remember this? ... I've often thought it would be great to start a commonplace book and now I'm thinking there's no time like the present!
The colour was so so gentle and beautiful. They are very clever folk. Biblio is such a happy injection into my work - time away from time just following my reading and wherever it leads… enjoy!
