An elegantly designed, practical, and inspirational guide to choosing, blending, and spinning richly textured artisan yarn for weaving, knitting, and other textile art applications.
In this elegantly designed book Imogen Bright Moon reveals the secrets of her practice, explaining:
- How to choose raw fibers for use in your work: the author’s are ethically sourced from various ecologically responsible sources, including a rescue flock of sheep on the South Downs.
- How to put together different types of fibers—raw sheep’s wool, plant fibers such as hemp, soya and wild silk, alpaca hair, and much more—to create richly textured yarn.
- The delicate art of blending naturally occurring pigments, working with shade and tone to create subtle and nuanced colors, a process that Imogen likens to a painter mixing paints on a palette.
- The principles of hand-spinning, from a simple, single-spun thread to more complicated yarns such as triple-chain ply yarn, using a traditional floor spindle.
- Ideas for taking your yarn into finished craft and art projects, with stunning images of the author’s own work.
