My new piece of work on Wool/Mohair


New work.  This is the first time l have dyed a large piece of wool/mohair. I am really pleased with the result. I used Eculyptus leaves, rust keys, rusty coke tins and the waste from the garden patch. I have put up a few images of parts of this piece. I have decided to add some of this to a beige cotton/wool jumper that l have. Hopefully l will show the end result...if it works!!!!!Fingers crossed please.
First side......
 
Second side..haven't decided yet which side l will favour.
Love the pinky colours that have appeared in the pattern.








 Love the way there appears to be a heart shape made here from two leaves!
