A very exciting thing happened last week.
I finally saw a finished project made from Escape to Evermore yarn.
It was made with this yarn.
An organic wool dyed using cochineal and logwood to give a soft color combination that I just loved.
It had traveled a bit before finding its final home with Sue Green – the person who knit this wonderful hat.
It first went to the Beltaine Festival.
That is it in the center.
Then to the Fairy Festival . . .
Here it is in the center lower left.
It was dyed using a highly technological process.
The center two pots are the Logwood and Cochineal dye pots.
Eventually it ended up in my Etsy shop as yarn F-2.
Sue, who has her own Etsy shop – Greenbriar Creations – is on a team with my husband Chip and had heard about Escape through him. She gave F-2 a higher purpose – to bring warmth to someone – possibly someone who is sick and going through chemo now.
Wow.
I am so proud.
So if you get a chance, visit Sue’s shop. She does wonderful things with upcycling and wool and vintage linens that are so worth seeing – and buying!! I am a sucker for antique linens and love to look through her shop.
And if you are in the market for a great looking hat made from naturally dyed organic wool . . . .
