Getting ready for the Market in May....have 5 bowls ( with the hole for the wool to go thru) wrapped with yarn and needles.....? Mother's Day gifts ?? Will have plain bowls( without hole) of various shapes and sizes. Will give the proceeds  to the food bank, if they sell.

I find the more bowls I sew the more control I have in shaping the bowls. Still not happy with changing colours by butting the edges. Plan to try experimenting to see if it could be neater

Playing with rope decorations

a little busy with the coloured thread

like the shape , not sure what it could be used for

playing with colour

Still getting used to the blog and added the last pictures twice . will try to correct the problem

Little different technic with the dye

                                                             another wool bowl

                                                      a little whimsy

this one is rather large about 12 in wide and 9 in tall

Well all the bowls are one of a kind. I hand dye some of the rope before making the bowls. I tried dyeing after and the results were not as good. I never know what the color will turn out to be ...different rope takes up the dye differently and some that are a blend are harder to dye. I am thinking about buying from a different source but the price is doubled.
