This is the full extent of my art materials now, since the Great Winnowing of January 2020, those innocent days before lockdown.
And here's the now empty and echoing art studio on the top floor.
And. different subject, here's the pin I made last Spring from cashmere goat fiber given by Quinn. I ended up spinning, crocheting and felting to make this nest with eggs. At the time I asked for and got a lot of interesting ideas from blogistas, which went into my finally deciding to make this.
Today I was offered a bag of hair from a beloved Belgian Malinois who died in early 2020. Probably different texture, and I think may be mixed with another fiber in order to spin. I will get maybe a couple of yards of yarn from it. What I'm asking for is ideas on what to create from it as a possible gift to the owner. She might like a small memento of her much missed companion. I can spin, weave, crochet, knit, felt, whatever works.
So would you come through again? If you also read Field and Fen, you'll see this in there. But since some people read only one of my two blogs, I thought I'd for once repeat myself, unusual for me, in order to catch as much input as I can. Thank you!
