Knitting and art

[scarybex]

On the knitting front, as I haven't posted about that in a while (mainly because I am still trying to finish my 'epic jumper of doom' and have decided I hate long projects).

I have become fascinated with the lovely home spun wools that you can buy online. This is stuff spun from raw materials on a wheel and mixed together, and hand dyed to create really artistic raw materials! Obviously the side effect of it being labour intensive is a higher price, which is a bit prohibitive for me to be buying often. I shall give you some examples of things I'm liking (interesting if you like pretty things or are a bit arty/crafty minded)

I still miss my colinette wool hair extensions. I should get some more. I like the wool with the bobbly strawberry looking things on them (not for hair extensions though!)
