FiestaFiesta in its golden and green accentsI plaited a 2 metre length to illustrate the flow of colours Packs of silks selected for a spinner. From the top, Turquoise and Teal Ocean mix, the last two layer are both Fiesta. The buyer wanted a vivid section of Fiesta (middle) and a cooler flow, as shown in bottom pack. A little bitty silk paper shown on the left hand made using Fiesta silks. I can prepare you a customised silk paper making kit to try out this alchemy yourself. This is what a 20 metre unfurled coil of Fiesta sari silk sliver looks like. It has a beauty and life of its own! Fiesta unfurled! A box of silks.
Autumn Leaves
Rich russet, caramels and toffee with flash of light jade green. Autumn Leaves is such a smart, warm and sassy mixI always unfurl the sliver to show the run of colours in each length, particularly if the customer is looking for a special signature hue. Note the different green hues and the burnt out red embers. A cooler flow of Autum showing a neutral ashen streak. From left to right… Sari silk ribbons in Turquoise, navy blue, Russet Frizz with a bangle to try out Boho silk wrap jewellery. Some Brocade ribbons nestle into the left of a mini skein of Fiesta, flanked on the right by a goodly amount of Autumn Leaves. Ready for dispatch. Weaving with the ribbons and spinning with silks! A pack of silk slivers for KateEmeraldEmerald FlowClose up of Autumn with the brilliant burnish of maple leaves in a New England Fall. A pop of Turquoise glinting in the pastel pinks and golds on this 100 gram ball of Fiesta. Above and below – it is still Autumn. Think of the possibilities of spinning with this silk fibre… Just one final glimpse of Autumn, before moving on to the bling of Maharishi Red mix below. The vibrant richness of Maharishi Red Turquoise and Teal or my “Ocean” mix. The colours evoke the Cornish coastal waters. Ocean mixAnother aspect of Fiesta. Cobalt blue mix
Purple Jewel. The spinners’ darling.
Purple Jewel defies description. Sumptuous mix of every colour – but most strikingly – purple.
You have a lovely collection of sari silk fibers there. I have never used them for spinning as I am still not good at that, but I do use them a lot in my felting. I love how the fibers make different textures on the wool and sometimes you get some nice metallic threads in there. I will pull a piece off like roving and then spread them out from the side in little clouds. There are so many ways to use them. 🙂
Hi Arlene, so kind of you to say so. I love your whole approach of exploration and discovery with beautiful wool and silk fibres. It’s such fun, isn’t it? Judi x
