Our first blog, and a new scarf!

We're learning to blog, and look on it as a great way to stay in touch with our friends. Bear with us as we dive in!

Here's a new design we've been working on over the last few weeks. It's a shawl-or a big scarf-depending on how you choose to wear it. It's base is a heavy crinkled silk, with a lattice of fine merino wool laminated into the silk.

It's starts off white, and then the fun begins, because we love color! We literally paint the pigments into the scarf, mixing four base dyes into a riot of colors.

  2. Hi, Louise and Elaine. This a a terrific looking blog layout, clean, spare and colorful. The images of your work are wonderfully fiber-optic (a clumsy pun, I know). I know you'll enjoy this.
