Falling leaves in autumn

I collected my purchase of this beautiful scarf by Manon Asarfi from the Scarf Festival. She says: "The colours and circles remind me of falling leaves in autumn in the forest where my parents live, a tiny country town in the Netherlands". I am looking forward to wearing this lovely piece of the forest!

more bubbles

More fuchia curves and bubbles- I can't seem to resist the beautiful red dye pot!
Please visit the Geelong Wool Museum website to see photos of the scarf awards being presented. It is not too late to get to the exhibition- it finishes on July 25th. http://www.geelongaustralia.com.au/nwm/about/services/article/8cce757c5a9d9f2.aspx

Number 3 is the winner

Number 3 is the winner!! I was very excited to win the category of "best use of different techniques in a scarf" in this year's scarf festival with my black coffee and milk coffee bubble scarf. I have already spent my winnings on one of the other beautiful scarves in the competition!! The exhibition of all the scarves runs until July 25th at the national wool museum in Geelong it is well worth the trip.

Scarf Festival 2010 entry number 3

This is my final entry for this year's scarf festival- "Black coffee and milk coffee bubble scarf".
The colours of the background and the bubbles are reversed/ reflected on either side of the scarf. -Welcome winter with a warm, wearable, bubbly coffee!

Scarf festival 2010 entry number 2

Scarf Festival 2010 entry number 2- In this piece, bubbles that normally form the surface design of the scarf are now reflected on the reverse of the scarf, revealing the equally intriguing surface of the felted wool. There is a pleasing contrast between the reverse knit stitch of the reflected bubbles and the stocking stitch of the primary bubbles.

Scarf Festival 2010

After some very slow progress, this is my first finished entry for this year's scarf festival at the Geelong wool museum. I have combined my current shibori technique with small handsewn mirrors for this year's theme "Reflections". This year's festival runs from 18 June to 25 July.
