connecting the seasons



in the heat of the summer i gathered alder leaves and twigs and cooked them up for dye to make a beautiful golden yellow fleece. yesterday, after the rain, i moved my spinning outside into the fresh autumn air, and, using the alder fleece as the base colour, spun up a skein of yarn. today i will knit this yarn into a scarf that will be worn in the winter and early spring. connecting the seasons...
