Variations on a theme ~~~ crackle weave again.
I’ve enough warp for one more tea towel after this so thoughts are turning to the next project.
When I first started weaving tea towels were not top of the list of must weaves but if you hand dry dishes there’s nothing to beat them.

Day 10 of
With all the amazing greens in nature you would expect that it would be an easy colour for the natural dyer to achieve , but it’s not as straightforward as it might seem, for the clearest, light and wash fast green you can’t beat weld with a dip in indigo. 💛💙💚

Day 10 of and today is silk.
Silk and natural dyes are the perfect partners, here used in bundle dyeing and eco printing.
I also love to use silk blend yarns in my weaving as in this silk and nettle blend dyed with madder.
