The musings and meanderings of a mixed media artist and yarn junkie who loves to knit,spin, crochet, make a mess, write and enjoy life. I try to follow the wheel of the year and enjoy each day of it. My art reflects that spiritual journey.

Amber, your hand dyed yarns are lovely. After my recent workshop, I am becoming more and more drawn to dyeing.
And more socks! I am speechless, you are so prolific at these. And they are lovely too.
Love the socks . Ursula xx
