Next work in progress...

So the next project wool has arrived and it's just so much prettier than I could have imagined!!!

This will be a cloak/mantle and I've placed the cloak brooches on so you can see the effect. I woven band runs between the two. The fabric was much thinner than I was anticipating, and it could easily be made into medieval clothing, but the colour is magnificent. It will be nice an easy to sew, thank goodness. I won't be starting it for a week or two as I need to do some other projects as well which are needed first, but who knows if I will get carried away and just do it!

The previous cloak I was making is easily twice as thick, but the cloak clasps really didn't look that good on the tan.



I think you'll agree that the blue really works for them!

It's not quite a blue as the photo suggests.
