The "Tigereye" batch of hand dyed thread is now in my etsy shop. I named it after a gemstone with similar coloring...browns to gold.The earring I am working on here is another new design I thought of this past weekend. It was inspired by some large square earrings I saw a friend wearing.
I really like this! I will keep an eye on your shop!
ReplyDeleteI really, really, really wish I could wear earrings! The thread is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWould clip-ons work? I keep intending to get some clip-on styles done, but haven't had time yet!
ReplyDeleteYay, I bought some of this whoo hoo!
ReplyDeleteO.k., so how did you get it wound back on the spool?
Thanks for buying!!
ReplyDeleteWhat I do is wind it with a hand cranked yarn ball winder - which makes a really sloppy-looking ball in this size thread! But it's manageable. I've seen that some people wind theirs onto an embroidery floss holder. It could also be wound around a card, or a paper tube.
If I had a ball winder that was capable of making neat, attractive tiny balls, then I could sell my thread that way -- anybody know of such a contraption?
This is gorgeous! I got some too... I love your thread Marilee, they are all oh so pretty...
ReplyDeleteI havent used the previous ones yet - I dont want to :-(...
I know how Sapna feels. I've got mine so I can look at it and contemplate it. "Doing" is still the thinking stage!
