branksome china

while in Fordingbridge, we went to Branksome China
and were immediately immersed in a retro atmosphere, starting from the factory building, which is an old cinema.
The cups are so thin and elegant - I just love the simple shapes and colour combinations.

we're back home now
 -  it was nice to breathe in a little Spring from another country -

preparing for summer

I've just finished this prototype - it's a very light, transparent scarf in pastel colours.
In the warp I alternated stripes of silk yarn and lovely Venne cotton (from Margreet!)
while the weft is white linen. It's crisp and shiny and matt at the same time.
Now I need a sunny and windy day to try it out.....

I love the Slow Grow project by Melanie Bowles
