Fingers got a bit busy recently.
A friend of mine asked me to make some scarves using tie & dye.
I set to, cracked me finger joints, Pondered abit - not too long otherwise that would have been dithering - then I set to.
Little bit of stichin'
Little bit of bindin'
Little bit of wrappin'
Little bit of gatherin'
Give it a good ol' tug
Little bit of compression
Give 'em a dip in the vat
Bob's your Uncle
With Blue Hands
Little snip & pull
Undoing the stichin'
Finicky Finicky
Little bit of unwrappin'
Nearly there
Pine-Bark Lozenges
Squares
call it Tie-dye, call it Bandhani or Bandhej, call it Shibori
after a couple of weeks had six tussar scarves dyed in natural indigo
to give to my friend
& blue fingernails too !
Great pictures Si. Loving the blue.
