Some of my pieces which include Touch Yarns
Jun.15, 2012
I was so lucky yesterday to find Touch Yarns at Fieldays at the Mystery Creek Events Centre.
What will I create with the yarns I purchased yesterday? Who knows.
If I am creating for a specific pattern, or exhibition or competition which does tend to focus one somewhat then I would know which yarns or colours etc. But if I am wanting to create something outside of such parameters then I do let the yarn tell me what I should create. I have used Touch Yarns many times since I discovered them whilst in Dunedin to run Library training at one of our Dynix libraries quite a few years ago now. It may have have Dunedin Public, Otago University or the Teachers Training College. That detail has long gone, but the wool shop and Touch Yarns were a wonderful discovery.
These are some of the garments I have created which included Touch yarns.
