In the Studio - Shawl Merino Nylon Rayon



Shawl, woven stitch, size 11 needles, wool, rayon, nylon: work in progress

These yarns are actually tapes, which are not spun but processed in ways that result in tapes that are actually long slender fabrics themselves. I have used a merino tape and a nylon/rayon tape that are dyed with the same colors but the fibers take the colors differently.  It's a beautifully complex thing.
