Busy day today getting all my yarns and scarves ready for the Yarra Glen Artisans Market at the Yarra Glen Art Show.

Apart from labelling all my yarns etc I had to cover the prefect body hanging up in my work room in Linen. Up until now she has just been an uninspiring plastic and when I draped a scarf around it didn't look very 'arty'. So in an effort to make her look a bit more 'organic' I cut up pieces of Linen and got out the trusted PVA glue. I was pleased with the result.

One of my latest scarves was inspired by several fibre artists in the states - Natalie from Namaste Farm being one of them and some fringe scarves I did last winter that went very well. Whilst the fibre they used was Wensleydale I used Mohair and the result was rather yummy. I dyed the fringe in graduated shades of brown, amber and orange.
Tonight I tidied up my work room, how does it get so messy, but at least I feel like my creative mind is a bit more organised. I will be having a fibre friend coming to stay soon so I feel like my room is ready for a visitors!
