Hand dyed roving, Combed Top
Alton a hand dyed roving from dudleyspinner
If you are a fiber artist, spinner, knitter, crocheter etc.etc.
have you ever told someone that it is what helps keep you sane, in a joking, toungue in cheek manner?
I know I have. Now that I am not able to do those creative things without paying a high price in immobility, I am not laughing my ass off. There is far more truth to saying these things keep me sane than I ever wanted to admit.
Ahh well, such is life.

I love looking at handpainted spinning fibers. I just see possibilities. It is always amazing to me how two people can spin the same roving in the same colorway and get two distinctly different yarns.
I do find some sanity in the creativity, particularly spinning. I think it has something to do with the connection to the past, the calming effects of a turning wheel and the like...
Oh, Deb! Alton is the stuff of dreams! You have captured autumn leaves littering the forest floor perfectly!
those are both beautiful! It makes me want to go back to letting you choose all my colors ;)
