I promised an update of my felted blanket with colour changes yarn vs. washed squares as well as in a different light. We finally saw a bit of sun again, giving me a more natural light, well, a light that makes the camera see the same as I do anyway. Just a light cloud cover is even better actually, but sun still beats the flash.
As you can see below, it’s mostly some of the yellows that have darkened considerably after the warm wash.
Edges are done with 2 yarns, as I did not have enough in one. 2 different yellows overdyed with Japanese indigo and Woad resp.
That is beeeeeautiful!!! What are the total dimensions?
Thanks.:) It’s currently 50×50 cm (19×19″), but I’m thinking of wetting and stretching about an inch or two.
Q – Quite brilliant the idea of putting the original yarn on the squares so we could compare colors. Wonderful blanket.
Nice work Pia!
That is wonderful!
🙂
That is breathtakingly lovely.
It’s a bit funny to me how people are praising it, because I’m not over the moon myself except for the project in itself, the lightfastness science part of it, the felting experience and the potential. But thanks! 🙂
