Oh how I adore funky chunky art yarns. I've been spinning art yarn for a few years and have been wanting to find ways to showcase them as art instead of knitting them into a functional piece. So you can imagine my elation at receiving a gorgeous knitters loom at Christmas. I've been eyeing this thing for awhile and I am super excited that it's finally in my home. I got a chance to start playing with it this week, and it's everything I hoped it would be. It's super easy to warp, super easy to use, and totally compact so I can hide it behind the table when I am not using it (saving my work from curious sticky fingers). It's made to handle the larger diameters of yarn, so I can finally use all my funky stuff and make wall art out of them. Here's a few pics of me warping the loom and getting ready to start.
A Mischievous Yarn Thief. He was creating "scenes" with his Disney Cars characters and apparently my yarn ball made the perfect addition to the story. I wish I could see into his imagination sometimes. It seems so magical.
I cant wait to create something out of this skein! I'll post pics as soon as its done. What was your favorite artsy Christmas gift this year?
XO, HARMONY
