Wool, Silk, and Gold

Here are the latest pictures of my fiber arts projects: The tablet woven band is coming along slowly but surely. The commercial weaving silk is nice, but it's not holding up as well as I had hoped in the weaving - it's pilling like crazy and it has lost a lot of the luster it started with. It still looks pretty nice though...


The naalbinding project is also coming along nicely. I am starting from the toe and working the stitch in a spiral. The wool gague is still a little big compared to the original sock, but if I make this any tighter it won't be stretchy and comfy to wear. The worsted yarn is beautiful! So lusterous, soft and silky!
