The last of the chenille scarves for the season have been knit. Lightweight fibers suitable for the coming seasons are replacing the warmer, heavier ones in wearables presently produced.
Please follow flickr links to view images of new work, and some possible ways to wear them.
Wire pieces are still “works in progress”.

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009This is the end piece in a series. Fiber content: 2 strands of 3,000 yards per pound chenille and an ultra thin ribbon of tencel, tactel. Garment may be worn either side out. It’s ruffled edge was joined
onto the sweater body as it was knit.
