Description
More about this one of a kind Art Batt..
For this Fantasy Skies series I have been inspired by all the beautiful colours painted by our skies.. with an added touch of whimsy!
I have added my favourite silk and woollen textures between layers of soft merino and hand painted falkland wool. Many complementary and contrasting pops of beautiful, bold colours add contrast and depth to the variegated nature of these fibres when spun. I spend a lot of time carding these batts, incorporating many different colours, and like to think of each as its own fluffy painting.
I have passed through my carder just once, this is to deliver the most texture possible and keep the colours from ‘blurring’. I designed these batts with chunky spinning in mind, although I also enjoy spinning them into a finer textured yarn. They pull apart like butter. I like to to pull these batts into strips before I spin them. When spun they have a beautiful variegated, slightly scrappy aesthetic. See photos for some examples of what I mean by this!
