Isle of the Blessed Poncho

$5.00

A fun and practical, and fast project to make a unique fiber basket – delightful in any home!  This basket has a colorful yet timeless aesthetic.

DescriptionThis is a very comfortable poncho; the drape is just right for ease of movement and warmth that breathes. The design aesthetic based on the idea of revealing the unique novelty effect of our Morgaine and Round Table against a traditional yarn like Merlin. To do that all three yarns were in the dye pot together, so in the finished project the viewers eye goes to the subtle textures as well as our fun selection of colors.

This design is based on a yarn maker & dye artist concept of how fun would it be to gear your eye to look novelty and textured yarns instead of always color.
