in all this time...

Lets face it. I'm not a blogger really. If in need for writing down my thoughts, I find myself unconsciously reaching for a pencil or pen rather than a keyboard. Its too much engraved in my mind.
So I thought of using more pictures and a fewer words to show what I've been upto these past few months.


Way back in August I had my showcase at Craft Central for a whole week...



...during which time I conducted my first botanical dyeing workshop!


Then there was summit to Scafell Pike in Lake district
(including a classic story of being lost in the middle of nowhere, after sunset, with no torch, network or a map...)




More mountain hiking (climbing and clinging on, at times for dear life!) in Austria,
before some family time in India.


But amongst all the traveling, I have managed to make something new.

Handcrafted wrist-warmers made of felted wool and botanical dye.
Perfect for braving out the autumn chill.





New wool scarves



Perhaps a good time to mention that Entanglewood will be at the following events this winter :

...thats a lot of opportunity to come and see some beautiful, naturally dyed textiles.
