Sarah Knits and Weaves

Hi

I'm Sarah and I'm glad you're here to see my site, have a look around, it's always changing. I'm a young fiber artist just getting started selling my work. I have been knitting about three years and weaving for a year. To see more information about a picture click on the text above the picture instead of on the picture itself. Feel free to leave comments on blog entries or pictures and to email me through the site at any time.

I finished and washed the CVM. It is plied nicely and put up in a skein to enter at the county fair. 290 yards of lace to fingering weight!

Last night I started spinning some of the purple mohair I bought at my spinners and weavers guild's auction. The single of it was 108 yards and 75 grams, thick stuff. I wasn't sure I could still spin thick, I've been spinning so much sock weight when plied. Today I plied it with sewing thread and silk flowers. I'm hoping to knit a kids hat. I'll take pictures as soon as I get a new camera.

Welcome to everyone procrastinating on Tour de Fleece and clicking everyone's member page. I'm Sarah and have been spinning about a year.

I'm taking a much needed trip to the east coast. My mom and I are flying from Indy to Baltimore on the 19th then driving down to Chincoteague, Virginia for five nights. On the 24th we are going up to Ocean City, Maryland for a night then driving back to Baltimore and flying home the 25th. I will be reachable by phone during that time but not email.

I am finally back to knitting, weaving, and spinning after a long semester. I have woven one scarf using my own handspun and have started a belt with a very mixed warp (rayons, silk, cotton, wool, acrylic). I am also almost finished with a huge knit bag and hope to felt it this week.
