Living in the Cariboo region of central British Columbia, I weave luxurious wool blankets, soft cotton blankets of all sizes, hand and bath towels, and classy scarves. Everything I make is designed for long-lasting use and enjoyment. I blog about various projects, finished products, and thoughts and ideas about weaving and being a weaver.

A Special Wool Blanket
On the recent Shetland wool warp of browns, I wove my handspun Romney wool from Beaver Valley, east of here. A friend raised the Romney sheep long ago and produced beautiful lustrous, long-fibred roving. I bought the roving after her felting workshop a year ago, ostensibly to felt the stuff, but I preferred to spin it and it was gorgeous to spin.
