Description
Garden Party Yarns Ginger
A variety of soft rambouillet fleeces went into this yarn. They were raised by Nina Olsen of Davenport WA. I dyed it with a deep evergreen, olive and gold. After spinning a thick yarn I plyed it with a fine olive yarn. As with all the Garden Party fibers this yarn is handspun locally here in Spokane, WA with lots of love in each skein!
Features
Jacquetta Holcomb is the magic and passion behind Garden Party Fibers!
See Her Yarn Creation Process Below
To wash the fibers,I soak up to 4 pounds in the washer. Using Tide or Orvus and hot water.they soak for one hour, spin, soak again and rinse twice. Mesh laundry bags hold the wool together, yet allow water to circulate for the soaking.
Adding the final lavendar to this pan of rainbow dyeing wool. This will be the colorway "Rain".
Freshly washed mohair drying in plastic baskets. Newly dyed roving, mohair and skeins of yarn drying.
Most fibers are only picked before spinning. This allows for more distinct colors while spinning. It also lets the natural formation of the locks to remain for spinning. The mohair for Fireside yarn is being picked.
The carder further blends the fibers and results in a smother yarn. Misty Lake a gray blue yarn is being carded here.
Each Skein of Garden Party is different with lots of charm and character. When you treat yourself to some Garden Party Yarn you are supporting a pillar of the fiber community and the fine art of handspinning and dyeing from scratch! We offer
free patterns from Jacquetta Holcomb-Garden Party
, many of which use just 1 giant skein of Garden Party Yarn!
