Fire! - The
summer of 2003 will long be remembered here in the
Kootenay Boundary as the Summer of the Fires. This colourway
was
inspired by our drives through Oosoyoos, Kelowna, and Chase during
their devastating fires, when the mountainside lit up with the candling
pine trees, against the black sky. Lipstick Red, Scarlet,
Fushia,
Burgundy, Blue Red, Christmas Red, with a hint of purpley red and
charred red.
Fire! is
red hot when hand dyed in silk. The colours just glow. 50 gram package (1.8 oz) -- $15 (8 available) |

| This
colourway, Winter
Nights, is inspired by the

through my studio window tonight, as I sit at my spinning
wheel. Rich jewel tones of burgundy, navy, lapis
lazuli,
fuschia, scarlet, moonlight white, deep true blue, royal purple,

creamy white, and pastel
blue. A very calm and confident colourway. 50 gram package (1.8 oz) -- $15 (8 available) |
