Warch, it's BEAUTIFUL. I can see why you enjoyed working on it so much!

Have you worked with many different kinds of fiber on the Le Clerc? Any favorites?

warch · 08-28-2003, 09:23 PM

Herbs, syc, they's just...herbs like god intended.

As to fiber types, I've done a bit of everything. I'm partial to natural fibers and like to dye my own stuff, too. Wools, silk, and rayon (a synthetic not too far removed) are favorites cause they suck up color. I often liked to play with alot of different fibers types/textures in a single piece, a mixed warp. We'll see what comes of this, now. (weak attempt to steer towards philosophic topic)

Silly Fiber quiz:
Name the critter that is the source of this fiber:
1. Merino
2. Angora
3. Cashmere
4. Mohair
5. Vicuna
6. Quiviut

Nooooooo, so sorry. You couldnt smell these fibers could you?
We were looking for sheep, rabbit, goat, goat, vicuna (trick question), Alaskan musk ox (behind the ears of).
