using wool from My Little Sheep.

Evelyn started with natural white handspun yarn. She thought it would be interesting to continue using "primitive" methods as she developed her piece. She dyed part of the yarn using black walnut hulls over a camp stove outside, and then used a vinegar wash to set it. The first picture shows the dyed yarn contrasted with the natural white as they hung drying.

Evelyn played around with several ideas for the yarn before deciding on this amazing piece of her own design. How is this for versatility and class?

Then she entered her scarf and took first place in the American Heritage-Fiber Arts contest sponsored by the Missouri State Society Daughters of the American Revolution (MSSDAR). Congratulations, Evelyn!!!!!

Mary Anne has several hand-crank sock machines that she enjoys tinkering with. Recently, she decided to take on the challenge of using my handspun, natural colored, double-ply Babydoll yarn with one of her machines. Although I'm sure she had many obstacles to overcome, just take a look at her results!

...and they are as soft and cushy as they appear. Beautiful work, Mary Anne!
