Cotton Throws / Blankets

Just in time for LEAF. A new group of loom woven throws/blankets. Loom woven in the Texas Hill Country with American cotton, grown and spun in Georgia. Finished sizes approx. 45″-50″ x 90″ + fringe.

Cozy · Soft · Simple

Same as last year I will be doing a workshop on loom weaving, but this time there will be two workshops. One at 10:15 am on 24th and 5:00 pm on the 26th. During the fest, I will have my Saori loom at my booth for those that missed the workshops. All ages are welcome from the youthful to the matured, the youngest weaver was 4 ½ yo. Afterwards, the finished woven cloth will be giving to LEAF.

Yarn Cake, Work in Progress

Starting to turn my random dyed organic cotton yarn into “cakes”. It is making a nice striped effect on the cake.
