I have been referred to as a “Jack of All Trades, Master of None.” But I maintain that there is still a multitude of crafts and arts I haven’t even tried – yet.
My current passion is dyeing. I’m fascinated by the changes that take place when a few chemicals are combined with a handful of wool or silk while I work my magic and something entirely different in appearance emerges from the dye pot.
I then take the transformed fiber to my spinning wheel and more magic takes place. How a handful of wool can become yarn to knit into a hat or scarf or, even more exciting, a pair of socks is still magic to me even as I sit at the wheel, steadily treadling, and watch it happen.
