Branch weaving hand dyed yarns

Image
I asked my son who lives on Orcas Island in WASHINGTON state to bring  me a Madrone branch last Christmas . I know that may seem strange to some of you but I had this idea in my mind  to take this beautiful branch and weave a section of in for a wall hanging.   Madrone branch with leaves and my weaving  I used some of my hand dyed wool  The hand dyed wool I used plants found in my neighborhood  Plants that I used were mainly Japanese Knotweed and  Goldenrod  I mix my yarns with iron to “ sadden” the color  The blue green is a commercial yarn  Leave a comment below I’d like to hear from you
