stripey poncho
Here is a wool poncho I made for chilly fall days to come.
I dyed the yarn with plant dyes.
brown-beach plum bark with iron
pink- beach plum bark with no mordant
gold- red onion skins with alum
green- barberry bark with copper
I still need to block it and I am not sure about the braided fringe. I think I may end up weaving in the ends instead.

About Me:
Otherwise known as Ms. Busy Fingers.
In my free time this winter I experimented a lot with dyeing yarn with natural stuff like oak bark and pine needles. The colors from nature are so alive! I've been crocheting for several years now - took to it with a vengeance! When I am not hookin, I take care of the rich people's gardens out here on this rock in the sea.
