Gradient retrospective (photos)

Gradient retrospective, photos in 1 post.
Here is the beginning

and here is the yarn

side by side with spun on e-spinner

Small shawl

Recently spun yarn is becomming a smal shawl.
The dress from American girl Felicity collection got a custom underskirt, looks better this way than without

with lot's of lacy stuff and small pink flowers.
Here the yarn color is closer to the way it is.

The flash changed purple shade some.

The other pink-peach shade would go with a riding outfit if I find one, and peach white - rose garden dress if I find it also, if not - some dresses sewing is going to happen. Or maybe both.

More green

Some time ago I posted about re-using cashmere and winding such yarns

here is another re-use go green thing. containers.
Recycled x-mass boxes from a photo studio make very nice yarn containers. Yogurt container with a hole in it's top made with a knitting needle makes a yarn container.... you know if there ia a cat that likes to play yarns (which I do not have) or a toddler that sometimes likes to play a cat that plays yarn... or whatever the reason to keep the yarn clean...

PS: here is the finished doll shawl.
