Oh summer…you were slow and lovely but not long enough for me to get all my immersive projects done! I did get a start on my natural dyeing experiments and I’ve made some serious in roads on my knitting. So on this episode we’ll chat about weld, logwood, Himalayan rhubarb and iron modifiers. The hobbit vest is off to be worn and as of right now I’m done the body of the There and Back Again. There’s a new cast on too. I hope this finds you well and in good spirits.

The vest is Perfect! Like all the subtle colours you got from dying. And soft white wheat, sifted, can be used for cakes. Good for you.
Be well with the commute!
Another lovely vlog, thank you! I’m relatively new to your channel and have been working my way back. I love the connection to place that you make with the wool. If you haven’t already read this, Richard Nelson’s The Island Within is a beautiful book regarding connection to, and exploration of, place. From his preface: “What makes a place special is the way it buries itself inside the heart, not whether it’s flat or rugged, rich or austere, wet or arid, gentle or harsh, warm or cold, wild or tame. Every place, like every person, is elevated by the love and respect shown toward it, and by the way in which it’s bounty is received”. I have read this book multiple times and it grabs my heart each and every time.
